Dum Dum - Whilst that might work I'd actually avoid putting too much effort into it. It's referred to as a 'personal statement'.
A lot of it can be put in your covering letter and the last thing you want to do is repeat yourself. 'Bigging' yourself up is great, but an employer doesn't want to see some hashed-together copy-paste bullshit from the internet. A CV needs to read like a fact-file on that person and not a soppy attempt at brown-nosing before you even have the job.
What kind of industry is the OP trying to get into?
