I love this post. by Russell Davies on how to be interesting. Not sure I can live up to all of his assignments but the advice is great. For those who don’t want to read the whole thing (shame on you) here are the two keys (more inspiration for the short book I want to write)

 

  1. The way to be interesting is to be interested. You’ve got to find what’s interesting in everything, you’ve got to be good at noticing things, you’ve got to be good at listening. If you find people (and things) interesting, they’ll find you interesting.

  2. Interesting people are good at sharing. You can’t be interested in someone who won’t tell you anything. Being good at sharing is not the same as talking and talking and talking. It means you share your ideas, you let people play with them and you’re good at talking about them without having to talk about yourself.

 

But you knew that already right? :)
