Take an interest

Do more than just skimming through life. Take the time to take an interest.

Discover what genuinely interests you. Do the work to focus on it, to think it through on many levels.

Learn all you can about it. Deepen your understanding by teaching and explaining it to others.

Don’t settle for a mere passing interest. Develop a passionate interest, perhaps several of them.

In every direction you have your pick. You’ll always be able to uncover something to ignite your interest.

All kinds of people, places, events, and subjects are as interesting as you choose to make them. Take an interest, invest your interest, and life continues to fascinate.
