It’s better to get off to a fun start than a normal start.
If you’re meeting someone new, interviewing for a YouTube channel, interviewing for a job, right at the beginning ask them what’s their favorite vacation. It’s fun to talk about vacation. It brings back light and happy memories. And now you’re talking with a person who has just told a fun and happy story. You’ve shifted the course.
Starting with a little fun takes a little more energy. It’s risky. The normal way is fine…no one is going to complain that you didn’t start with something exceptional.
Good luck. Have some fun with this one.
