If you ask the average person, "how do I get people to become interested in me?", you will hear people say things like, be funny, be witty, tell interesting stories, etc. You rarely hear people say "listen". Listening is not exciting. Listening is not a way to get all eyes on you... or is it?

Try this:

*Talk to a person you like. Let them speak and you listen. Try not to interrupt, try not to dominate the conversation. Just listen.

*Try to remember key points

*Let's say they mention that they have a birthday in 10 months. When their birthday rolls around, give a small gift.

*You may notice that this person is interested in you a little more. Not because you wowed them in conversation or gave them a gift, but because you are making them feel important just by giving them your ear.

When it comes to listening, don't underestimate it's power. Listening makes people feel more important. When you make people feel genuinely important, they want to be around you more to keep feeling important.
