Interesting People Make Interesting Choices
I’ve heard it said that all we are is the summation of the choices we’ve made. There’s a lot of truth to this. The decisions we make each day help form who we are. How do we take care of ourselves physically? What do we eat? Do we exercise and do so properly? Do we take…
People Who Do Versus People Who Judge
There are two types of people in this world: People who do (Doers) and People who judge (Judgers) Rarely is anyone both of these things. Interesting people are doers. They get things done. They go for what they want in life unashamedly. The work hard, take risks and put themselves out there. This makes some…
Interesting People Never Accept Average
I’m sorry… this post is a little rough… Interesting people never wish to be thought of as “average”. Average is death… The average person in the United States watches hours of television every day.

I’m definitely no fashion guru, but I’ve found some things that work for me and these…
Interesting People Don’t live in the Past
Interesting people are always looking forward. There’s no time to look in the past. Sure maybe you have done some great things in the past. Maybe you haven’t. Either way, your best years should be ahead of you no matter how old you are. Maybe you’re dwelling on pains from the past. This is counterproductive.…
Interesting People Experiment
Interesting people constantly try new things. They go to new places. They meet new people. They try new foods. They learn new skills. They are constantly experimenting. Sometimes they find out they don’t like a new food or they find that a new place is extremely boring, but now they know. They read all sorts…
Interesting People Don’t Get Overwhelmed Easily
I recently moved to a new place which is why I haven’t posted anything in about a week. Moving is a lot of work and involves a lot of tasks that need to be done in order to get things in your new place the way they were in your old place. The overall job…
