9 simple ways to become more interesting to others

To become interesting to others, you must first of all not be bored in your own company. You may have to work hard for this, but if you manage to achieve what you want, you will notice that the atmosphere around you begins to change and there is more and more quality communication in your life.

1. Stop being lazy

In order to be considered creative, talented, interesting, we need to invest in our development, do something, create something. So instead of continuing to go with the flow, expand your circle of interests. Try to pick up a new hobby – you don’t have to be perfect at something, just being passionate about something and being curious is enough.

2. Don’t try to be better than you are.

Many tend to embellish their lives and invent fables, try to seem better than we are. The path is popular, but a dead end: on an intuitive level, people are usually able to recognize a liar and a braggart. Try to tell the truth. Do not be afraid to be vulnerable, show people your scars, and they will appreciate your sincerity.

3. Don’t wait for the world to change, change yourself

We love to talk about the imperfection of this world, and against the backdrop of the masses conducting endless dialogues on this topic, those who do something, at least try to change something, stand out.

4. Don’t try to fit in

Often, trying to adapt to the environment, we seem to “mute” our individuality, try not to show character traits, and unconsciously. The way out is to communicate with a variety of people from different backgrounds, age and social groups. Expand your social circle, you still won’t adapt to everyone, but you can learn something from everyone.

5. Do something new

Doing only what is familiar and familiar, we inevitably become predictable and boring, but if we step aside, we will have new experiences, which means impressions that can be shared.

It is not necessary to jump with a parachute or dive to the bottom of the ocean – you can do what you have been planning for a long time, but putting off. Buy an online macrame course that has been in your shopping cart for six months now. Sign up for Spanish lessons, paint a picture, start doing yoga. Plan a trip to at least the nearest city for the weekend.

6. Learn to listen

Most of us like to talk (especially about ourselves), and those who know how to listen are rare, which is why everyone treasures their company. Being attentive to the interlocutor allows you to create a deep connection with him, so prick up your ears, be patient and ask the person with whom you communicate with open-ended questions that he or she can give a detailed answer.

7. Don’t follow the crowd

Haruki Murakami said: “If you read the same books as everyone else, then you think the same as the rest.” In other words, if you do what everyone else does, then you simply cannot share anything interesting. Discover new things: restaurants, books, music. Get new experience, it will not only make you more interesting in the eyes of others, but also enrich your life.

8. Be open to new things

We often try to impress others with knowledge in a particular area or to share an opinion on a particular issue. But know-it-alls are rarely liked by others, rather they come across as arrogant and even boring.

Instead of pretending to know everything, open up to what you don’t know yet. Curious and inquisitive people, of course, respecting other people’s boundaries, are very attractive.

9.Relax

You don’t have to work too hard to be interesting, and even more so to appear interesting. What’s more, if you overdo it, you’re more likely to come across as a weirdo.

Be yourself. Be curious. Don’t forget that the world doesn’t revolve around you and that there are probably things you don’t know yet. Don’t be afraid to show vulnerability to others. Ask questions and be ready to hear the answer. Show interest, and others will be drawn to you.
