Before starting this exercise which is very similar to the Chain of Words exercise:
1) Take a pen and a few sheets of paper, entitle the first sheet as "Chain of Names No. 1".
2) You should accomplish this practice in 30 minutes.
3) As for the Chain of Words exercise, fully concentrated. Nobody in the room, no noise and nothing to interrupt you; turn off your cell.
4) You should do this exercise with your ultimate speed, in a high speed that you will not be able to do more than that any more; your highest speed.
5) Write down a list of English names for human, starting with Alice. The second name should start with an "E", because Alice ends with "E". The third name in the list should start with the last letter of your second name. Each item in your list should be a single-word English name (personal name). Example: Alice, Elliot, Tom, Megan, ...
Take a clock/timer to measure time; remember in 30 minutes; without any kind of interruptions.
Your list should be long; the longer the better, so try to write names fast as much as possible.
Ready?
Start!

OK, when finished, write the count of names in your paper, and keep your list as a record to compare with what you would do in the future posts.
