Its getting hard

It depends on the the people and the type of meeting you need to introduce yourself. what is it called for. Example: if it is in the party, you don't need to lay down your credentials.. from name to your working experiences. it will just be a casual name, sometimes, even without surname will do. then along the way, you are going to start saying a little about yourself. If it is a meeting for a corporate, of course formal, you will say your fullname and position and the objective of your coming. if it is interview for the job.. then it is the full blasts of information. although most information am sure were included already in the curriculum vitae. Not knowing who we are but the level on how much we would like to share and open. it could be just a simple name will do... or the full details about self.

Most people don't know themselves so well at all. Most people are confused, they are a product/result of the way they are raised and society wants them to be. Which is in many cases completely different from the person they really are. Many close their eyes for that, ignore who they are. Others only want to be themselves and fight against being labeled, accepted on certain conditions already as a kid. A part will get into big trouble sooner or later if they discover they can't go on the way they live now.. they go searching for themselves since they are lost without family, their job, etc.. if this all is gone.

I think it's not really that we don't know ourselves, but it's just that we lack a bit of confidence regarding who we are - our skills, our abilities, or even our looks. And if we don't fix this kind of attitude, then we will always grope for words when we're talking about ourselves.

We may know ourselves that much but we do not have enough confidence to tell others who we really are. That could also be a reason, right? So, one should be confident enough to tell anybody who he really is.

Yes I agree with beamer. It's not really that hard to introduce ourselves. It's only a matter of building confidence and knowing your strengths and weaknesses. Once you know that you start working on improving your strengths and work on your weaknesses. once your confident of yourself it would be much easier to introduce yourself to any crowd at any time. You can showcase you strengths and the fact that you are working on your weaknesses.
