“Read every day something no one else is reading. Think every day something no one else is thinking. It is bad for the mind to be always part of unanimity.” ~Christopher Darlington Morley
The most boring people I know, and usually the least successful and most unhappy, are those who either stop learning, or only listen to or read about what they already know and/or believe in. They lack curiosity, and are often fearful of learning anything or listening to anyone that might challenge their limited worldview.
Don’t be boring! Be curious and seek out new ideas, and philosophies different from your own. Challenge your beliefs, not because of a lack of character, but because you have the courage to realize that the world and the context is ever-changing and evolving and often that means you must evolve too.
