Professional speaker Jennier Leone recommends you dig deeply into your personal story to find out the moment that defines who you are and you you are that way:
- Take me back to the moment when... - think about the story and follow up on each moment in the story to see what happened in your life to get you to where you are now
- Ask better questions - repeatedly ask questions that drill down into the heart of who and what you are
- Relive the moment - relive the moment you are thinking about, feeling yourself experiencing and observing everything going on
- Play detective - follow up on the clues to the past, avoiding the obvious answers and looking for the deeper answers hidden underneath
