1. Write your first or last name vertically on a piece of paper. Use each letter as the first letter in an adjective that describes you. So if your name is Tom, you might say you are “tenacious,” “optimistic” and “misconstrued.” 2. Freely admit that you don’t like talking about yourself. Then say that you will do so in the words of your “best and worst critic” -- your mother. By breaking the ice in this way, you can proceed in either a humorous or serious fashion. 3. Invoke the surprise factor -- sometimes known as the shock factor. This introduction requires you to be somewhat self-aware, for if you knowingly present a conservative image, you might surprise people by telling them that, for example, you used to race cars or lived for one summer in a tent. Bring the introduction “around the bend” by explaining how the experience influenced who you are now. 4. Describe what kind of tattoo you would like and why. Or if you already have one, you may wish to keep this information private. Since purchases inherently reveal something about your personality, you may opt instead to describe what kind of vehicle you would purchase if the owner of a dealership walked in and handed you a gift certificate for a new one. top rc
