How do I become a more interesting person? originally appeared on Quora – the knowledge sharing network where compelling questions are answered by people with unique insights.
Answer by Miranda Marcus on Quora:
Interesting people are people who, when you learn more about them, challenge the assumptions that people may make about them.
Who is more interesting based on the following two-fact summaries?
- An automotive engineer who works on old cars in his spare time
- An electrical engineer who designs and sews all her own clothes
- An auto mechanic who designs and 3D prints plastic items at home
- A fashion designer who watches a lot of Project Runway in his spare time
I bet that the people who don’t fit the stereotypes you may have for their respective professions are more interesting to you…
