"By becoming more interesting one can add fun, excitement, and enjoyment to one's life," declared Jull Varness, associate professor of health sciences and education at the University of Florida. Here are her suggestions for becoming a more interesting individual.
1. Volunteer your time to a worthy organization.
2. Try an activity one does not ordinarily do. Walk barefoot in the rain, explore the nature of Verde Island, etc.
3. Pamper a pet. People find animals fascinating.
4. Try new foods. The exotic taste of new foods satisfies curiosity.
5. Read magazines. Your conversations will become more invigorating when you inject fascinating things you've been reading about.
6. Smile and laugh. Don't take yourself too seriously. Show people that you enjoy life.
7. Get other people to talk about themselves. Studies have shown that when someone gets another person to talk about a favorite hobby, the person doing the listening is considered more interesting.
