Whether you feel your life is too boring, you're trying to attract someone special, or you've been told you're just as interesting as grandma's friends getting together to knit, you've come to the right place. Read the following article to learn how to be the life of the party (because wherever you go it will become a party from now on).
Steps
Method 1 of 3: Part 1 of 3: Make Your Life Interesting
Step 1. Always be on the move
Spending all your time sitting on a sofa is the best way to be super boring. Get out of the house and do something, "anything", and you will make yourself so much more interesting. You will have something to talk about by conversing with others and it will seem like you have at least some kind of life, even if it's not the most exciting.
Step 2. Travel
Traveling is an easy way to make both yourself and your life more interesting. Aside from the incredibly rewarding experiences you go on on your travels, you will also gain more self-confidence and learn to cope with life's challenges. You can travel in your country or abroad, and travel doesn't have to be as expensive as you think. You can do it!
Step 3. Go on an adventure
Try your hand at the most adventurous things. Go hiking. Learn to climb rocks. Try scuba diving. Maybe try jumping out of a plane. This is the fastest way to transform your life from boring to that of a comic book hero. Plus, getting it right isn't difficult - all you need are basic knowledge, determination and a certain amount of courage.
Step 4. Learn new skills
You could learn to play the piano, master the guitar or, if you started high school, study painting, or choose a particular hobby such as leatherworking or training hawks. The most important thing is to dedicate yourself to something that makes you happy and in which you can put your own.
Step 5. Consider changing jobs
It's not something everyone can do. There are those who have a family to provide for or those who have other responsibilities to face. But if you have the chance, consider a career that you find interesting, and perhaps that intrigues others as well. In the long run, you will benefit greatly, because even the most boring part of your day will become exciting.
You could look for work abroad, work in a cutting-edge technology industry, or work with children, who are well known for moving anyone's day, seven days a week
Step 6. Create new things
Use the skills you already have or learn new ones to do what humans do best: create new things. You can create them just for yourself or you could turn your art into a business. Creativity allows you to express yourself, but it also makes you more interesting in the eyes of others.
Method 2 of 3: Part 2 of 3: Make yourself more interesting
Step 1. Enjoy life
Don't be negative. Don't complain all day and don't spend a lot of time offending others. You can be as interesting as you want, but if you are an idiot, you won't be able to enjoy it with others. Take everything you can from life, even when it turns your back. You will make everyone happier this way.
Step 2. Take risks
This is an essential element in making your life more interesting and more exciting. You can't be interesting if you always do the same thing, even if it's something pleasant. Sometimes you have to take risks (a piece of advice that suits you for life in general). Don't get crazy though. Look at the risks in terms of what you could lose versus the potential gain. If there is little to lose and a lot to gain, go for it! If it's the other way around, wait for a better opportunity or take another route.
Don't forget, it is often possible to create your own option C, if neither A nor B is right for you
Step 3. Be proud of yourself
And if you're a nerd, Star Trek fan wearing plastic pointy ears, that's great. No matter what your peculiarity is, show it off in front of everyone. It will bring out your personality, but you will also become a pleasant person to be around and to talk to because you will be happy and enjoying life.
Step 4. Learn
Always learn new things. Bonus points for you if you learn them while practicing! Filling your head with lots of experience and knowledge will make you a person you enjoy talking to and you will find that the pursuit of knowledge can be exciting.
Step 5. Be Unique
Everyone is unique. Everyone. If even monozygotic twins are different from each other and are unique, surely you can be too. Find what is unique about you, what makes you different, and be pleased with it. Even if it is something strange. There is no need to proudly wave flags everywhere, but you can definitely bring out your uniqueness. As a rule, this will make you happier.
Step 6. Be fun and positive
People love those who know how to have fun, so create your own repertoire of jokes and make them laugh. Find the bright side in difficulties. Take life philosophically, or at least remind others that you can laugh and relax. Both you and those around you will be happier.
The alternative is to be terribly racist and offensive (you can make yourself interesting that way for grandparents who aren't particularly up to date). Fortunately for you, you probably don't care about getting interesting this way. If, on the other hand, this appeals to you, good luck and goodbye
Step 7. Be consistent
Don't think that by constantly cutting your hair or changing clothes you will look more interesting. The same goes for changing hobbies and employment as you change panties. Going from one thing to another that has nothing to do with the first doesn't make you interesting. People will just think that you are frivolous and unable to focus on one goal. It will appear that you do this to get attention. Find something that really matters to you and let the news happen by itself.
Method 3 of 3: Part 3 of 3: Engage Others
Step 1. Talk to people
Get out and socialize! Talk to friends. Spend time with them. Become a party-goer. Have fun. Show your friends all the tricks you worked on (you followed the procedure in the first two steps, right?). This will allow you to show off everything you have tried your hand at, but it will also offer you an additional way to go out and do something more interesting than sitting on the sofa.
Step 2. Surround yourself with interesting friends
Now, I'm not trying to say that having more interesting friends will make you more interesting too. It wouldn't be fair. But more interesting friends will get you involved in doing interesting things, giving you the opportunity to try new things. They will also be willing to join you on your adventure.
Step 3. Do something useful
Volunteer. Enhance your community using the skills you have. Show others how they can in turn improve their lives by facing challenges, as you did, in order to change your life. Doing something for others would make you even more interesting, but you would help them too and feel fulfilled.
Step 4. Teach others
By going around doing all these cool things, you will learn a lot of useful things or information. Make good use of this and pass it on to others. You can give rehearsals, or just tell anecdotes at parties with friends. People love to relive the experiences of others through their teachings when sharing with them.
Step 5. Leave your self in your home
You don't have to put on airs or blast yourself in people's faces. They know you have an interesting life. If they want to know more, they will ask you, so try not to start any sentence with "your experiences".
Step 6. Be prepared for criticism
You will probably have to break or circumscribe some rules, be it real rules or social conventions. It is a natural thing, as being interesting means above all going against the tide. Some will surely have to say about what you are going to do, even when they are the first to "get it wrong". Learn to live with your detractors and you will be much happier.
Advice
- Always be smiling. Never feel down.
- Always play the joke. Make jokes, and be spontaneously funny.
- Take risks. Live like there's no tomorrow. Be brave because there are some things you need to do at all costs. And interesting people do.
- Be nice.
- SHOUT if necessary. Not in a rude way. Don't whisper every word that comes out of your mouth. By speaking out loud you show self-confidence.
Warnings
- Stay away from those bad people who tear you down.
- Don't be interesting enough to be unbearable. Unless that's what you want.
- If you like something, do it! It doesn't matter what others think.
