INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Be interesting by relying stories in an entertaining way when you talk to people in your friend circle or at parties. Choose a memorable experience from a recent trip or discuss a funny experience at the grocery store. Use a personal story to connect with others and be social. Include only the important parts of the story, or the highlights, so your listeners are entertained. Use your body and your voice when telling the story so it is engaging. Talk with your hands, maintain eye contact, and create a character with your voice. Show pictures of your unique experiences too! Keep these on your phone for easy access when you need them. When talking to others, try to find out what you have in common. Talking about shared interests will engage the other person and make them more interested in getting to know you. When meeting someone, ask questions like "what are your hobbies?" or "what do you enjoy doing?" Remember that the more you try new things and experiences, the easier it will be to find similar interests with other people. Pose questions that are thoughtful and relate to what the person is talking about. Ask follow up questions about something you do not understand or are more curious about. This will show others that you are paying attention to what they have to say and interested in the conversation. For example, you may ask questions like, "What was it like working the night shift?" or "How did you adjust to moving to Canada at a young age?" Try not to close yourself to meeting new people and engaging them in conversation. Instead, put yourself in situations where you have the opportunity to meet others, such as parties, meetups, or events. Be open to exposing yourself to new people and interesting discussions so you can be well-rounded and in touch with what is going on. For example, you may challenge yourself to go to social events in your area at least once a week to meet new people. Or you may try talking to strangers in public places to try to meet someone new. To meet new people, try going to social events in your area, signing up for a class, or using a website like Meetup.com.

SUMMARY: Tell good stories about your experiences. Connect with others about common interests. Ask engaging questions in conversations. Be open to meeting new people.
