Test-drive your responses aloud with a trusted colleague, friend,<br />
or family member. Doing so serves two purposes. You commit your<br />
options to memory, making them quickly accessible when caught in<br />
the moment. Also, your listener can help you weave these comments<br />
seamlessly into a conversation—preventing disjointed non-sequiturs.<br />
Some can be adapted into openers:<br />
“My daughter would love this place!”<br />
“Th is is so diff erent from Boston.”<br />
“I just took a great walk outside—perfect weather.”<br />
