How to Get Out of an I-Don't-Know-What-to-Say Moment
Jancee Dunn Polls the Experts
Q: What's the perfect answer to: "You know what your problem is?" A: "A simple 'I do, thank you' leaves the person with no opening to expound further." — Lisa Caputo, chairman and CEO of Citi's Women & Co. "There's no correct answer to a trick question. Just say, 'No, and I'm doing fine without knowing.'" — Rudy Rasmus, pastor of St. John's United Methodist Church in Houston "'Don't tell me, or I'll have no more mystery in my life.' Glibness aside, if you have the self-possessed fortitude to listen to the answer without defensiveness, you will most likely learn something about yourself—and about the person who's got you all figured out." — Faith Salie, host, public radio's Fair Game from PRI with Faith Salie podcast
