It’s better to be interested instead of interesting
I read chapter 1“Do this and you’ll be welcome anywhere” from “How to win friends and influence people by Dale Carnegie”. In this chapter, I find out that The New York Telephone Company made a detailed study of telephone conversations to find out which word is the most frequently used. You have guessed it: it is the personal pronoun “I”. It was used 3,900 times in 500 telephone conversations. It means that people are not interested in you, they only interested in themselves. People are only want to listen about themselves not your story. According to this Dale Carnegie, “You can make more friends in two months by becoming interested in other people than you can in two years by trying to get other people interested in you”. He gave some principles to become more socialize.
Project 1: The Interested Challenge

People give you their attention, time and love only when you become interesting for them and it is very much important to become interesting, firstly you become interested. Become interested means that you involve your self to another person whose precious time you required. when you give your time and attention to the other then you will become interesting. I also try this experiment with my fellow which was not my friend and ask her some questions that how are u?, what are you doing? , how’s your vacations going? etc.. and it was unbelievable for me that she not only give me all answers rather ask some questions about myself. After that we became good friends.

Experience:
I have learned that to make more friends and to become socialize this is the best way that you become interested in the others then you will automatically become interesting for others. This is a good experience for me. This also helps making friendly relations with teachers, friends and the others in the whole world.
