How to be Interesting

Mar 15, 2013

 

It started with the “How to Be Interesting” post on Forbes.com that went viral, attracting over 1.4 million viewers so far, with tens of thousands liking, linking, and tweeting the article. I was pondering personal assets in business, modern virtues if you will. I thought that being interesting was the greatest one. It’s more vital than hustle or education, more important than good networking. It’s a core attribute that draws people toward each other, and greases the wheels of love and commerce and politics. From that point, I noodled out what it meant to be interesting: and those ideas are now this book.

For more info, pop over to the book’s page.

The very talented Alex Cornell has put together a superb book called BreakThrough! Overcome Creative Block & Spark Your Imagination. 

It features 90 different methods (from 90 different creatives) for beating creative block into submission—very nifty.
Here’s link to buy it, and here’s my contribution (click it twice for a big image):
