“The more you are interested in others the more interesting they’ll find you. To be interesting, be interested.”
— Kevin Kelly
Simplified Meaning:
When you show real interest in other people, they start to like you more and find you more appealing. Think about a time you met someone who asked you questions about your hobbies or listened carefully to your stories. You probably felt good and thought they were nice to be around. This happens because people enjoy talking about themselves and feel valued when others listen to them. Imagine you're at a party and instead of talking about yourself, you ask others about their lives, jobs, or interests. People will appreciate that you care about what they have to say and will likely enjoy your company more. So, if you want to make friends or be more popular, pay attention to others and show that you care about them. This simple habit can make a big difference in your relationships and help you connect with people better.
