Knowledge is one of the most attractive things we can have.
Sometimes knowledge comes in the form of what we know, other times in the form of things we can do and skills we have.
We live in a world where it’s become more necessary than ever to have eclectic knowledge and diverse skillsets.
Men are running out of ways to feel special
It’s not enough that we make money or have status, because women today already have these things.
We have to work a little harder to be interesting
We cannot afford NOT to be a Renaissance man or woman with a variety of skillsets, art forms and knowledge bases.
Knowledge and skill is a good look on anyone – as is curiosity which inevitably leads us to these things.
And attraction is sustained for longer periods of time when you’re able to keep surprising your partner.
Challenge:
Go and learn about or study something that you have no real need for. Just do something new.
When you’ve decided, leave a comment about the thing you’ve picked. Then come back and leave another at the end of the week to let me know how you’ve gotten on! Do you feel more interesting? Do you have a story because of it?
Be sure to let me know as you’ll be giving me ideas for what I can go on to do next myself!

i feel o frustrated still ive watched so many videos and still i have no idea what to do about this guy i am seeing. Hes somwhat of the player type. he says hes crazy about me and spends lots of time with me tries to take me out to nice places and ihave met his parents. hes 20 years old im 19. we had intercores and i think thats my first mistake but weve known eachother now for a month and abit i asked him where we were going.. he told me he can see himself dating me in the future but he really wants to go slow because he just left a serious relationship and its not what he wants right now. how can i change his mind and make him think differently about us. ?
Your youtube video has inspired me to start the flamenco (spanish style guitar playing) lessons id put on mybucket list for later.

Reading about artist who lived in Renaissance and examining their paintings is my new hobby. I also read all kind of analysts about the paintings and most of them have interesting stories. To whoever reads this, take this new idea for hobby to the bank and cash it!
I think i’m a bite of a documentry geek. Love them. And i realy like sharing what I’ve seen whit my friends,it realy opens our minde. I don’t look at things the same way. And since 2014 I’ve been watching TED confrerences everything day, before i go to bed. Love them !!
Hi Chloe. I watch TED conference is something I do too. Since I saw one of my friends on TED, it became some kind of addiction. Its really informative and you get to know about people and places you wouldnt normally know about :)
Take care.

Nice post. I was checking continuously this blog and I’m impressed!
Very useful info specially the last part :) I care for such information a lot.
I was seeking this particular information for a very long time.
Thank you and good luck.
Neuroscience is my thing!
I love reading about the brain, why we do the things we do, the reward system, the cognition of information, and brain neuroplasticity. Nutrition and brain chemistry too!
It’s super interesting.
I work as a private banker and have been working in Finance for the past 12 years, so it has nothing to do with my area of expertise.
My passion is triathlon, and I completed and Olympic distance Tri already! I go to Colorado to train in the summer.
But anyways… Neuroscience is what I love to read about!
Go figure that out!
:-)
I’ve been taking line dance lessons with a variety of music.
It has been awesome to use to awaken the dancefloor of a party
And get the wallflowers moving. Try something new! =)
What the hell did you just say in Chinese? It sounded sexual or maybe it was just you ordering your lunch special from Mr. Chow’s Szechuan
Selam Matthew, ben Jeena.
I picked learning turkish. As you can see I learned a bit already :) Its a lot of fun listening to your advice. I would really like to know your thoughts about my situation..maybe some other time though..Teşekürler.

Hello Matthew,
I feel in love with an older man (1947 & mine is 1974) and now I feel he is cheating and he goes on sex date websites because I found them in his email. I want him to come back to me.I’ve made some major positive changes for my health and well being. I asked him without raising my voice. If he was seeing someone. His response was of course no, I was but when you moved back I stop seeing her. My stomach tells me something else. Because he doesn’t know I know about the web sites. I continue to not get depressed and stay busy.
love this idea :) im actually in the process of learning about kabbalah bracelets and its origins. Purely because I seen an article in a mag about celebs wearing them. Never actually thought it would be a topic to raise in conversation.. or maybe that was the whole intent.. lol we all want what we cant have right..? :)
Hello Matthew!
You absolutely caught my attention speaking Chinese in this video.
I LOVE learning and I am busy learning Chinese in Taiwan now. I’d love to hear more of your philosophy outside of dating and male/female relations!
Wonderful article! We will be linking to this particularly great content on our website.
Keep up the good writing.
Hey Matthew!
I absolutely loved this video. I think there is nothing more interesting than meeting people with a bunch of random skills or hobbies. I once dated a guy who was an absolute master of quirky knowledge. He spoke three languages, could juggle, was a classic car enthusiast and drove this awesome old jaguar, did magic tricks (seriously who do you know that can legitametly do magic tricks?), was a total shark at pool, and played guitar. And from an outside perspective he was just a “boring” accountant. So far from the truth. Hands down one of the most interesting people I know and it made our relationship so exciting.
As for me, I’ve recently become obsessed with astronomy. It seems like a random interest, I know, but I can’t seem to get enough lectures and science magazines to curb it! I find, for myself, that I’ll have different interests flare to life and take hold for a few weeks. These sorts of things have nothing to do with my career or my life’s passions, but I love indulging in some new knowledge. Keeps things interesting I say. In the past there have been things like learning a language or starting a collection ( I have retro fridge magnets from all the places I’ve travelled), learning to waltz or learning to fly a plane.
I think that people get so wrapped up in the idea that they need to be “somebody” and “find themselves” that they forget that you’re always learning and growing and changing. I think it’s the saddest thing when people just categorize themselves and then anything that doesn’t fit into their idea of “who they are” gets dismissed, as if you couldn’t have a boring accountant day job and still know how to do magic tricks. People complexities are what surprise and interest me.
Anyhow thanks for the video! Keep your social genius coming!

Upon reflection the electronic cigarette might vaporizer portable be damaged.
In contrast, when we would have won the war against cigarettes.
I decided to watch old football matches especially the world cup games and I ve read a book who was written by a football star “Zlatan brahimovic” I haven’t finished it yet but I will, I also learned few german words, it was interesting anyway.
Thanks Matt!
I am finding this really interesting as I have been talking about curiosity with two friends over the last two days and we agreed that curiosity increases memory because something you are passionate about will be remembered better, due to some dopmamine emission in your brain that makes you happy or something like that. I have been starting to brush up on my French, since I had it in school for like six years and don’t remember a thing….I’ve been learning a bit over the last weeks.
Heya just wanted to give you a quick heads up and let you know a few of the images aren’t loading properly.
I’m not sure why but I think its a linking issue. I’ve tried it in two different
web browsers and both show the same results.
I’ve decided to learn how to jump rope with a speed rope. It seems like a great warm up before a workout, so I will do this for five minutes before my workout each morning. Thanks for taking the time to share your knowledge and advice!
