How to be Interesting

Ever wondered how to be interesting? You may think the answer is to bamboozal people with the latest news, an unknown fact, or being spontaneous.

The thing is, these are interesting but it does not make YOU interesting. Saying an amazing fact doesn't make people interested in you. So what makes a person truly interesting?

It's not giving worded messages to people but it's taking the other person's messages and showing interest in what they are saying.

If you want to be interesting to your children, be interested in them. If you want to be interesting to a client, show interest in their work and what they do. If you want to have interesting things at work, be interested.

We all love to talk about ourselves but when we take in what the other person is saying and show a true interest, they feel an attraction and interest in us.

Whenever we show interest in others, life becomes interesting for everyone.
