Thanks !You saved me a ton of time.
@@techboomer9716 np man
ty timestamps buddy!
Hell I'm none of those things lol
and remember, women don't need to feel obligated to do any of these things because we're just guys and we don't deserve an interesting partner. Don't be a simp. This channel should be called Simp Training 101.
My thing is to guys who hear this; don't do things just to impress girls or people in general. Do things to make you feel fulfilled and happy that you are curious about. Sometimes some girls may not be into that; but if she likes your character; she will wanna know what interests you.
This is why i like smart, talkative women and people like that in general. I appreciate you trying to help broaden our horizons Courtney. My new skill i learned recently was cooking salmon on the grill and new ways to edit my TH-cam videos. Not as challenging but fun 😄
Also much love and blessings to your grandma too 🙏💛💫
100% ❤️ ooooh look at you learning new things! Love that. Thank you Georgio 😊
Nice - GEORGIO! Lol
If you want to become Interesting - it’s important to try to be a well-rounded person.
Meaning, become knowledgeable in different subjects - that way, when you’re among people, you can pitching in about whatever is being talked about.
And if you want to take it to the next level - then you need to learn the Art of Storytelling - like Courtney suggested!
Anyway, that’s my two cents.

@@carlosverde-datingtips7001 ohh i totally know what you mean. I can resonate with what Courtney said. I'm a storyteller naturally in a way because i been through a lot of shit in my 31 years on this earth. So i have a lot to say and i try to share my experiences whenever the time is right. I appreciate you taking time to type this. Have a blessed day 😊🙏
@@GEORGIOARCADE I see! Lol I’m sure you do! I appreciate you bro - keep it up!
Being well read also will go a long way toward learning how to be a story teller. The best writers are some of the best story tellers out there.
100% true.
Facts
I really like Jordan Peterson's 9th rule in 12 Rules for Life: "assume the person you're talking to knows something you don't." This is such a useful outlook to have when engaging in a conversation with someone. Instead of trying to score points by making the interaction contentious, go into it with an open mind and be willing to have your pre-existing positions challenged.
Jordan Peterson often tells a lot of crap. Conservatives like him master that skill very well.
Jordan Peterson also attacks a lot of positive political ideas out of pure hatred. Only fools believe in his manipulative and fallacious speeches.
@@jastermereel9773 Quiet fool no one asked how you feel. Plus I have read this novel as well and it has helped me in life.
interesting. my rule of thumb is to assume i'm the dumbest person in the room instead of the smartest (like a lot of people do).
@@badrequest5596 If you’re the smartest in the room, you’re in the wrong room :)
Simple answer: Get out of your comfort zone for trying new things and develop communication skills..which is also putting your self out 😂..nice points tho
I think it is more so of expanding your comfort zone. If you get out then you will inevitably come back to your comfort zone
For sure man, challenge yourself physically and intellectually
@@moon-0 i didn't mean to just go do sky diving even if you are afraid of heights... just little exposure and small achievement that counts and like you said expanding those boundaries
I locked myself up for decades and only left my home for work until I was so bored by myself that I decided to start travelling to at least one new country every year. 21 counties later I'm a little less boring. Maybe I try talking to someone next year...
Good point - webs t! Lol

I have found that in general, people LOVE talking about themselves With a passion. Can't tell you how many conversations I've have where I am curious and ask lots of questions, which gives the other person lots of opportunities to talk further about themselves. At the end of those conversations, they are excited about me and about the conversation, not even realizing what just happened. How can they be excited about me, when they did not learn a thing about me during the entire conversation? They are just ecstatic that they got to tell me all about themselves. I do not mind doing this for one or two conversations, because I do want to learn about people, but as the relationship develops, it becomes a turn off, because self centered-ness is revealed in their personalities. And I cannot be around that, long term.
I'm guilty of always responding with "nothing" when asked about "what's going on.." and would only respond differently if I'm doing something immediate or extraordinary. Now I recognize how that can come across.
The best thing you can ever do is just practice and don't give up until you loose all your fears and get comfortable. Every thing is about not giving up. After all that you can surely achieve what you want, it might be in life or relationship, just don't give up.
I've given up chasing women 😉
You're a breath of fresh air in the often toxic world of dating and personal development. Just subscribed, and I'm looking forward to learning more about your points of view. Thanks Courtney!
Storytelling is difficult for me because I get straight to the point. When I speak or address something, I don’t BS. Unfortunately this leaks over to story telling. It’s something I’m constantly working on.
What has worked for me is focusing on my thought process + how I felt during the event. That's essentially what storytelling is. The event + thought process + emotional process. Even more engaging when the story you're telling has a problem or conflict so it becomes like a movie where the protagonist has to defeat the evil villain
@@chamber1083 agreed^. Also Op try to be a little bit more animated with your story telling. Give obvious exaggerations, and put emphasis on things that are important to the story.
I take improv classes and even acting classes since it helps you to express yourself more. I've grown up socially anxious and I'm very logical so the problem was that I forgot how to express myself. So I relearned to express by taking those classes
Same
I don’t know if this would help but maybe talk about how it made you feel and have fun with how you describe things?
Can I just throw some appreciation out for how perfectly clear your speaking is? Every word is spoken with clear cadence and pronunciation, great tone etc. It's not very often you come across that even in "professional" spoken entertainment settings. Bravo 👏
I read math and stats and computer science books because I’m a nerd and it interests me, I know it won’t be a topic of conversation with all women but I enjoy it so I keep doing it
Learn how to explain it to a 9 year old. Be excited about it and what it means to the rest or the world, and learn to convey that excitement. OR, (preferably AND) take that same excitement and GET CURIOUS about her life and interests. Women's favorite topic? Themselves.
Women will fall into YOUR frame, if it's strong enough.
@@williamclayton9566 that’s true. Thanks for the advice.
I’ve always said, “To be interesting, get interested.” I’m an introvert (INFJ), but I’ve hiked up the back of Half-Dome, piloted a 60ft ship under the Golden Gate Bridge three times, been in a flying helicopter and hot air balloon twice each. I’m an English major, with a focus on 19th century romanticism and ancient world literature, and also love going to the theatre, taking acting classes, and constantly study anything artistic. I enjoy martial arts and playing games of all kinds. One of my favorite moments was rowing a boat out in a bay during a thunderstorm, also the first time I held my niece is still at the top of the life affirming moments. I have never run out of topics at a conversation, and people keep asking me for more stories. So my advice is do things that make you interested and people will take an interest in what you do.
Took me a while to understand that listening to audiobooks or podcasts while I drive makes me a more calm and understanding driver without even taking into account the content that can make me a better person.
Travel:
One thing I learned was that you can pick what appears to be a rather boring uninteresting area, but then do some research and then go visit that place. Everywhere has a story and history.
Smelterville Idaho? Why of course! Mining processing history. (I love that name for a town.) ;-)
People are open to hearing about unusual areas you've visited and what you've learned.
On your point about passions, it doesn't have to be the coolest thing ever. For example I love customizing and building keyboards, is that the most exciting thing for a woman? Probably not, but the passion that I put into it is enough to impress them
I've been perfecting my imaginative artwork and I'm proud with the results, I've also given my created characters a backstory, a goal & a compelling ending which I am confident will get a lot of innovative heads turning and learn much more about them.
Monday morning 25 October 2021.
Seven rules to becoming more interesting:
1. Insatiable curiosity.
2. Learn a new skill.
3. Travel/cultural immersion.
4. Finding your interests/passions. Try new things.
5. Be a good storyteller. Men who are good storytellers are more attractive to women.
6. Don't be lazy.
7. Become well-read (not just books). Cut out all the negativity.
Everyone living in their own ‘echo chamber’, mostly online, and never hearing another point of view is a major problem these days. 👍
With many persons it's more a problem of not being willing to truly understand another point of view. Intolerance and an unwillingness to understand and RESPECT points of view that disagree with their own is a major challenge that many humans face at this time. But this is the way to greater peace and harmony. Understanding and respect helps problems to be solved and creates inner and outer peace.
Earlier this year, I've been teaching myself how to play guitar. I also take up writing because I express way better than speaking.
Love it!
Play wonderwall
@@webst4698 thanks for the suggestion
@@tommygunn6901 your reply tells me you are very very new to playing guitar..😂 but it's a nice song to learn
@@webst4698 great guess lol! I started at 13 and just beginning to relearn it again, so you're not far off
Courtney doesn't only impress with her advice she also impresses with her fashion keeps me more interested in what she has to say big thumbs up Courtney
Courtney, this was a great video. Gaining life experience, learning new skills and hobbies, taking a genuine interest in other people's lives is a great way to enrich one's life and create interest for others.
11:56 You are totally right. The worst enemy and obstacle of anyone is yourself. That's what I especially learned through my depression.
Listening sincerely is one of the best ways to become more interesting
Always enjoy your videos,great advice about life and how to get the most out of our lives in all that we do.Bigg thumps up Courtney!! Thank you.
Great tips, Courtney. I am a person who likes reading, music, and keeping up on current events as well. And you're correct; the do help in the field of conversing, but also as you said to be a good listener as we also learn from those around us. BTW, the half white, half black outfit you were wearing in the video was very becoming on you. You are already an attractive woman and that enhanced your look.
Thank you, Courtney for feeling comfortable sharing about your grandmother, because I also have a vision problem.
Ok I get it, I'm dying alone. No need to keep rubbing it in.
Well that makes two of us then 😂
Lol big sister Courtney with advice I discovered last year and this year. Once I learned to achieve what I want without a focus on girls my quality of life has improved significantly.
If you are dating someone you already like them so there really isn't a need to look out for "green flags" people may naturally gravitate to a "red flags" video not necessarily because they are drawn to negativity but because being able to spot red flags is more useful and actually needed. The risk of missing a red flag is severe while missing green flags has little impact because the person tossing up the flags has already shown enough green flags to draw in the attraction already.
I think the best way to be interesting is to not worry about it, be yourself and ignore opinion polls.
Interesting and inspiring! I needed this message today. Thanks, Courtney!
Great advice as always - Courtney! If you want to become Interesting - it’s important to try to be a well-rounded person.
Meaning, become knowledgeable in different subjects - that way, when you’re among people, you can pitching in about whatever is being talked about.
And if you want to take it to the next level - then you need to learn the Art of Storytelling - like Courtney suggested!
Anyway, that’s my two cents.

This was exceptional Courtney!
Thank you. Seriously!
Brilliant video. You're getting better and better as time goes on. Also love your passion and sincerity. Keep the videos coming.
Being authentic. Pursue ur passions Everyone is different n no one will please everyone. Live for urself
I get so much out of your content, and some of it really steps on my toes but I appreciate that. You put out there some things that are hard to swallow, but you do it in a kind, compassionate, caring way. Keep doing what you're doing. Much love. Just wanted to drop some encouragement
I’m so glad I can help. Thank you for the kind comment! 🤍
You are lovely. Thankyou for being good person. Shines through.
Great topic!!!
Read something outside of your regular interests.
Try new things, try new foods, try new everything. Learn some old school skills from seniors.
Most importantly - "Be Curious, Not Judgmental" - Walt Whitman
Love this!!
I'm so glad you brought up audio books. I for one hate the actual act of reading something, and much rather prefer to listen to audio or watch a video if I want to learn something new.
To be interesting, you have to be interested... love it!
I loved every bit of this video!!! Thanks Courtney!!
I agree with you; and I add that your channel is one of the good ones that make people be better. Thanks.
Thank you for sharing Courtney Ryan, today I am not interested in learning how to be more interesting to entertain others. The truth is that l do my best to be a better form of my original self, and be of service to the people who need my ability.
JUST TO BE A BETTER PERSON, THAN I WAS YESTERDAY.
I DO NOT CONCERN MYSELF WITH BEING MORE INTERESTING OR ENTERTAINING TO OTHERS, l HAVE WITNESSED HOW WELL THAT WORKS FOR THE HOLLYWOOD FASHION SENSITIVE CROUD, THEIR TOTAL LACK OF PRIVACY AND PERSONAL SPACE, PRISONERS OF THEIR FAME, AND FORTUNE.
Have a nice day little miss high fashion sense.
This is the third video of yours that I have watched and enjoyed. I had to subscribe.
Travel, hobbies, reading and general curiosity and ability and drive to learn. All great attributes - plus the ability to talk about your work with passion and excitement that makes people understand the challenges of what you do.
p.s My wife has always been a great sewer, crafter etc. It was one of the most attractive things early on for me, that she always had "projects" even as a 20yo student, a real girl "nerd" in fact. And as I had my passions too that was cool because she understood that that took time and energy and we could naturally give each other space to pursue these.
She even made her own wedding dress and continues to make cocktail and evening dresses for herself, and always looks fantastic. Home furnishings also - lots of cross stitch, embroidery etc. Plus it's rubbed off onto our daughters. Our youngest in particular is really into jewelry making for her and her friends.
You're a lucky man.
@@Diego-Designs She's a lucky girl too 😃
For your homework suggestions from the fall style video I got a denim jacket and leather jacket. Hopefully that helps with the boring aspect as well
As long as I can remember, even as a small child of 5 year old, I have always had a burning curiosity about almost everything! Today, my family, friends, exes, former employers, etc., know me as "the guy who has answers." It seems I can always come up with a way to solve problems, fix broken things, find new uses for old things, answer a question about a wide range of topics, etc. I have devoted most of my life, even while in college, to learn something new about different subjects, every day. I read a lot, watch documentaries, attend seminars, and yes, even attempt to do things I have never done before, and succeeded at doing it well. I learn by doing and by failing. I love solving problems for and helping people.
I have participated in at least a couple dozen different kinds of hobbies (some I am still doing) and I never know when I will come across another one that I will want to take up. My hobbies have included sports and fitness activities (baseball, tennis, weight lifting, archery, pistol & rifle marksmanship and bullet reloading), programming, auto mechanics, writing (short stories and non-fiction articles), reading (fiction and non-fiction), artistic activities (drawing, airbrush painting, wood working, wood carving, ballroom and Latin American dancing, both instrumental music and singing), cooking new and different foods, mycology (mushroom hunting, growing and eating) and intellectual games of skill.
I have traveled to multiple major cities in 28 of the 50 states and have made more than 90 airline flights (with some very exciting and scary incidents on some of them).
I always have been and will continue to be open to learning new skills and gaining new knowledge until the day I die. I am teachable and am willing to learn from men, women, those younger than me as well as those older than me. I am always interested in hearing about what others like to do and what they know about it, why they like it, etc.
These are great points, especially the one when someone asks you "what's going on?", and you say "nothing much.." I can't count the times I had that boring answer.
Yeah! Another awesome video Courtney!
So I just got back from flying my remote control plane, my mate and I were slope soaring, which is when your plane rides the updraft of wind hitting a slope giving you free lift (you don't need to use the motor much), it's so much fun, and sort of meditative!
The place we go is a seasonal lake in a valley, it's called "Lake George", often we fly from the lakebed, but since it's spring and it's been raining a lot there is heaps of water so we were flying from the top of the hill, perhaps 75m up from the lake surface.
I am hoping to start a TH-cam about my hobby, and then get set up to tour getting amazing videos of beautiful locations from the air! so stay tuned for updates on that.
Love your channel, keep up the good work ;)
Love your content as always! Can you make a video on books you've read this year? I've been reading a lot of books this year and I'm open to new book suggestions!
you're killing it with these videos.
I am alway trying to learn something new what I found is (especially last year) is the more you know/learn people don’t want to hear it (some people see that as the “know it all”). They stick to what they know. They see it as you don’t have in common what they want you to have in common.
That being said you weed lit the ones who are set in that mindset and bring like minded ones who also want to grow.
My favourite superhero's long been "The Most Interesting Man In The World" and he always has babes clinging to his arms! Good to know that real world surveys back this up. Nice video, Courtney! Now you mention it, I could work to remove some "lazy" from my life.
Your audiobook story with grandma was so sweet it sounded like a audible advertisement
This is why I've been saying I'm excited for my 30s. I've been a Homebody for most of my short life, but I really want to Learn and Grow over time. I will be a Homebody(Because I wanna to have some Comfortability)but moving on, I have taken interest in some of the things in this video. I've actually done a few things that was said in this video.
Loving these thanks Courtney
When I was in college I had a job as a salesperson selling major appliances (stove, refrigerators,..). I didn't mind showing off the product, hated selling service contracts, but what I LOVED about the job is all of the interesting people I got to meet. I met people from all walks of life, and everyone had an interesting story to tell!
I've discovered that even the most silent person will open up once you find what they are passionate about....
... great video Courtney!
Sales/retail is a great way to break down natural social awkwardness. It’s amazing how fast it can do it.
Negativity is weakness and leads to bad things especially feeding yourself too much of it most people already struggle with negative mindsets so feeding yourself positive things can make some feel uncomfortable and out of place but feeding yourself positive energy through hard work and good goals even if they're small ones can be beneficial.
Great advice Courtney. Thank you 🙏
Sorry to hear about your grandma, and your right we all need to have a look at ourselves and find ways that we can be interesting
I’m new here, the sum total of all your videos (and others) made me realize why I gave up dating… all I need to do is change me. My problem is if I can’t crank up my feelings for a woman, I don’t have the motivation to pursue her. When I did my thing and made an intense connection on my first meeting a woman, they cut and ran in fear of their feelings. My feelings were deeply hurt by rejection, so I could never take them back even when they were later very forward friendly.
@@theredgem President Roosevelt did say “There is nothing to fear, but fear itself.” I’m still working on it.
I love your content. Very useful for young men.
This really opened up my eyes
I actually love that I found this channel
Courtney I just want to say I think you're a really lovely person and so much of what you say hits home and is so true. I think you always come accross really lovely and you are indeed very interesting. Naturally I think you're quietly confident too which for me is really cool too. Watching your vids is helping me Courtney......nice work you amazing woman 😊👌thankyou.
You are great! Thank You for another video full of great content and food for thought!
I think all of the keys to being a more interesting person which you covered in this video really go hand in hand with one another. A person who is lazy would never even think about doing things such as getting out of their bubble and seeing a world that they are not familiar with, learning a new skill, being a good storyteller, and so forth. I'm a fairly attractive guy physically but being the interesting person I believe I already am is what will ultimately make me a catch. Your videos are awesome, Ms. Ryan! Many thanks.
Super Great Topic Court
Great video thanks for the advice!
Yeah I've had to humble myself and grow on this point. It's a good point. My problem was sometimes I was funny and interesting, and then I assumed "okay I'm funny and interesting". Yeah, no. Sometimes I am. Often I'm just rambling. Like now. Moving on.
Courtney is the friend i would go to for advice on everything while grabing a cup of coffee 😀😂
Spot on , life time learning best through experiences but alway respect others, and there opinions!
The top three ''characters'' in women's fantasies: #1. A Vampire. This explains why movies like Twilight are so popular. #2 A Werewolf. What was Bella's second love interest in Twilight? That dude in ''Beauty and the Beast " sure looks like a werewolf also. #3. A millionaire/billionaire. Think 50 Shades of Gray. My point is or actually my theory is: Women are more attracted to men that have an air of danger, mystery, or darkness. Women never get over their Bad Boy phase.
Read books on anything. It will not only benefit you as a person but its a great conversation for women.
You have inspired me!
I am finally going to learn that new language!
....
Starting tomorrow 🤭
Great video with great content!
This is one topic that drives me crazy. The message in the video is spot on, but these days if you aren't entertaining the room then you are "boring". People don't have any respect for people with quiet, more reserved energy who listen before they ramble on about their lives.
Lol I’m sewing myself some garden overalls while listening to this channel
I learned how to sew in 7th grade. It’s fun.
I like this vlog.
While I'm reading less regularly now, one thing I wanted to mention that is I didn't start reading with big advanced books, and I started with manga and comics. I got into the habit of tuning out the world while focusing on the book. From there, I was able to read both fiction and nonfiction books in no time. Start with something small. Consistency and progress are what ultimately matter🙂
ur
You're preaching to my choir with that last point about the attraction of negativity. It's so exhausting hearing about negative things all the time, and by and large it does seem to be the sort of thing that draws the most aggregate attention. Seems like a lot of folks would rather roll in the mud than escape the pen.
Helpful, thank you.
I read so much stuff I don’t want to read at work (Doctrine, pubs and regulations) it sometimes kills my drive to read the things I want when I’m not at work. So I find myself listening to a lot of podcasts
Good advices, thanks!
Oh and regarding reading. I love it but seldom have time to so I stopped listening to music at the gym and started listening to audiobooks. Exercise the body, exercise the mind. That enables me to "read" 2 books a day, and most are free on TH-cam
I loved the green flags video....
Be mature but sophisticated. Loving the Ying Yang shirt Courtney ❤ ☯️
Thank you John! ❤️
@@CourtneyRyan You're welcome Courtney!
I need to do this more. There is a few things I'd like to learn how to do.
100% AGREED Courtney👍🏾
Thank u Courtney, I couldn’t believe I was a victim of negativity views and didn’t realize it
you are amazing courtney
This is a beautiful video. On point
#6 Resonated with me and I'm ashamed to admit it. It's something I'll look to work on
great tips
Interests and passions related, I think it would be helpful if you approached the subject of dancing in future videos 😅. I urge fellow men to take dance classes as much as I can, but I keep hitting a machismo wall. Yet girls on the dance floor never look at their men the same after dancing with me 😁. It helps alot. It's such a huge discrepancy between a guys energy on the dance floor and off the dance floor, all the confidence and masculin energy goes bye bye for most guys.
I like your narration
When I think about being more interesting vs maximizing my value to others, the answer is obvious.
Yes! Do interesting things, push yourself beyond the mediocrity. Strong Sharper and solar
God bless your grandma❤️
