Recording your speeches can give you an advantage if you ever decide to become an author. You will have a jump start in using relevant material taken from your speeches - including them in your manuscript.

Listening to your tone of voice, how your message flows, will help assist you with documenting your best wordage and information.

Note: Old school dictating machines and recorders are still great devices for note taking and capturing that inspired thought.
