Most people love to talk about themselves, share a great story, or tell you about their experiences and why they have all the answers. According to Todd Kashdan however,
“Being INTERESTED is more important in cultivating a relationship,
and maintaining a relationship,
then being INTERESTING.”
It seems this is an important time to be cultivating relationships, especially with those that may have different experiences, opinions, and stories. Next time you are in a conversation pay attention to which one you are being.
