How To Be INTERESTING AF

2 months ago, I was the guy that nobody knew existed. Now, people literally know my name at school without me even talking to them. I walk down the hallway and people be like, "Yo, my bad, Daniel." And I'm not saying this in a way of like, "Yeah, people excuse themselves." No, no, no. It's just the fact that, bro, how the fuck they know my name? And no, it's definitely not because I have like a million followers. No, I got 20K, which is dope, right? But let's keep it real. It's not like a superstar status. There's only one difference, which is that I learned how to be interesting. And by the end of the video, you'll know exactly how to do the same. And no, I'm not going to talk about some manipulation things, nothing like that. Things that are actually real and simple. The best part is that it's simple. But before we dive in, let me tell you about something that's going to blow your mind. The secret of being interesting, it's not being the loudest in the room. It's not having the craziest stories or flexing the hottest. It's the complete opposite of what you're thinking. Actually, stick around because I'm going to break down the five secrets that makes someone interesting. Just 2 days ago, I saw a guy at the school and right before recording this video, I saw him again and his feet were absolutely fire. Like, this man actually put effort into it and it was visible like from a mile away. And instead of just walking by him like everybody does, I went up to him and said, "Bro, you're making me think about this guy right here." And that was a compliment because this guy right here is ultra fly right now. Here's what happened that most people don't even expect. This man's whole face lit up. He was like, "Yo, Daniel, thank you. Appreciate it, man. That just made my day. Not going to lie." Like a simple compliment, not even 30 seconds of my life. And I literally made someone's day better. You see where I'm going? Because here's the crazy part. Because Harvard scientists discovered that when people talk about themselves, it activates the same region in the brain as money, sex, and food. We are literally wired to love when somebody is actually but like really interested in us. But most people get it backwards because they think that if you want to be interesting, you need to talk about yourself non-stop because that's not even real. The secret of being interesting is being interested. You see, to be interesting, you have to be interested in someone else, in other people. And it doesn't have to be this philosophical question, just a genuine compliment. The fact that you realize that someone puts effort into it just made someone else's day better. Like asking how was your day to someone and actually listening to them. When you make people feel seen, they will absolutely remember you. Okay, let's get a real talk because in the last two weeks, I noticed like I learned some shit that actually changed how I see the world. two things that are going to sound obvious to you, but when you really get it, it will absolutely change how you see the world, too. The first is that people think different from you. I know it's revolutionary, right? But seriously, you might think that something is fire. And if you ask, for example, your friend or if I ask the man that's behind the camera, he might think that it's not so fire or even that it's complete trash. But like, it's not hurting. It's just like the society since the beginning of times. Second truth that it's going to sting a bit. People talk about you when you're not there. Your friends, your family, people that you're close to. And it's not always like, "Yo, Daniel is so fly. He's so interesting." No. Sometimes it's like, "Daniel is," you understand, right? In my case, I know for a fact that since I make these videos, people at school or even in the street in my city think that I'm a superstar. But let's keep it real, man. I got 20k subs. And that's far from superstar, right? But you know what? When I really understood this, I just stopped giving a fuck about what people think. Because here's the thing, I want to make a name in the fashion industry. I want to be known in this shit. And if I'm too scared to record at the street about the judgment of people, how am I going to achieve that? A month ago, I could never make this video where I'm right now because there's people behind the camera. There's people looking at me, staring at me. They're taking videos. They're taking photos of me. But you know what? I don't care, man. Like, there's a man right there. He took photos of me videos. But do I care, man? I do not care because he might just show it to his children, to his wife, saying, "Yo, today I got something strange. I saw a guy making a video in the wild." Or maybe he might be thinking, "Yo, I just saw a guy today and he was making a video. He's just so strange." But you know what? I do not care because it's for the right cause. I'm trying to make you more interesting. So when I'm right here recording a video and people stare at me or judge, man, I do not care because the people who matter, they get it. And the people who don't, as Drake says, >> it's their loss. But understanding people is just half of the bottle. The next secret is about your own story. Keeping it real with you. I've been always ashamed of how I talk because I talk fast as hell. You see, I mess up words constantly. No matter if I'm talking English, French, whatever language, I just stumble over everything. For example, I know that for a 8 minute video, my footage is like 1 hour and a half. Imagine me recording an hour and a half for a 8 minute video. And there were times where I'd literally shut my mouth and not talk because I was just embarrassed. I thought that people would think that I'm stupid or weird. But around March of this year, I made the realization. I was like, man, I can't be hiding this no more. Because hear me right, I just made a phrase in my mind which is that hiding your imperfections will only make it more visible. Here's what's wild. The thing that you think might be weird or stupid actually makes you memorable. Everyone nowadays is trying to be perfect. So when you embrace your curs, you just stand out automatically. Now when I talk fast and mess up, fuck it, man. I just embrace it. People actually find it more authentic and reliable than me talking like a robot. Don't get me wrong, because owning your quirks is just the start. The next secret is about taking risks. Let me ask you something. How many times have you wanted to compliment someone, share an idea, start a conversation, but you didn't do it because you are scared of how the other person might react? I know that we're in 2025 that people are weird. But I mean, that's not all. For me, it was recording content. I see creators like Jexter, this Italian dude who's got an aura that just vibes with me, or Tomas Rafa, a Portuguese English guy that just got that energy. and especially Trent Vong, a guy who's got the lifestyle that we just dream of. I wanted that energy, but I was scared to put myself out there truly. Like, what if people think that I'm stupid? What if people judge me? What if I fail? But then I realized if I want it, but I don't do anything about it, then I'm just not going to achieve it. So, I started taking those risks. Random compliments to strangers, recording when people might stare at me, sharing my thoughts, like my real thoughts instead of safe opinions. And you know what happened? People started gravitating towards me. They want to get to know me. But all of this builds up to the most important secret. Let me tell you a story. Two months ago, I was the guy that nobody knew existed. And now people actually know my name without even me introducing myself. Like I just been in the school people bump into me and be like, "Yo, Daniel, my bad. Didn't mean to it." Like, bro, how the fuck you know my name? The difference isn't that I got famous overnight. The real difference is that I stopped trying to be interesting for them, but be interesting for me. When you're authentic, when you own your stories and you take social risks, you naturally become magnetic cuz people can sense authenticity from a mile away. And instead of thinking, oh, how can I impress this person? I just be how can I add value to this interaction? I know not like in a guru type shit like how can I talk about this stock that is about to explode. Uh, okay. Let me tell about the best sneaker to buy to this person. No, just like random value, just as little as it can be. Instead of hiding my flaws, I just own them. Instead of playing it safe, I took risks. And now people look at me differently. I'm like a magnet. They want to get to know me. And honestly, I want it too. Look, being interested isn't about having this best secret life, having the most followers or the crazy stories. It's about being genuinously curious about others, like about embracing uncomfortable truths, owning your weirdness, taking social risks, and becoming magnetic instead of just chasing validation. Tomorrow, I want you to do one thing. Give someone a genuine compliment. Not even a conversation with a stranger or just share an idea that you've been holding back. Just one small social risk. Do this consistently and I promise you people will look at you differently. You'll want to become the person that people want to be around. Not because you're perfect, but because you are real.
