Download - The art of becoming interesting
The need to become novel is nothing new. Many people strive to be well-liked and stand
out from the crowd. Nevertheless, being interesting is hard work at times, especially if a
person is transitioning from being a bashful individual. There are a few instances when
people try, only to end up looking awkward. These are but a few of the things a person
needs to avoid, as these can affect their chances of gaining a significant network.
There are some tricks that a person can use to catch the interest of the people around.
These are just a few things they can keep in mind to become more interesting without
being a source of ridicule.
Being Open-Minded
Interesting people are open-
minded. They avoid being judgmental,
and they are sensitive to the reaction of
the person they are interacting with.
People take interest in someone if they
exhibit signs of being perceptive and
unbiased. More importantly, open-
mindedness provides someone an
access to other people’s viewpoints.
Sharing is Caring
Interesting people share what they have
explored. Others will take notice of
someone if he is generous with the
things he knows and he willingly shares
them. For instance, an interesting
person shares with others their
experiences while on overseas travel.
They may share with people what it is
like to be exposed to other cultures.
Being Humorous
Funny people are always
interesting. Others may wonder how
they come up with smart banters and
witticisms within a short span of time.
One word of caution: those who want to
become interesting through humor
should veer away from politically correct
remarks and jests that tackle sensitive
topics.
Becoming an interesting person should come off naturally. One should not appear as
though he is trying hard. Otherwise, they run the risk of appearing awkward and gawky.
They should instead master the craft of surprising people.
