The I do not care attitude may sound or rather feel fulfilling in that moment, but it sure will not take you anywhere. Well, it might or could, but what are you going to be known for? Rotten manners! Selfishness!
There are time ones when you actually do not feel like talking in that if someone said are word to you or asked a question, you'd rather bury yourself under the sand.
But how long will you keep up the deaf grind?
This is when you have to make an effort, to have an open ear. Not just to anything, but to something, atleast one, or two, even several. Lets face it, closing yourself up from the world won't get you anywhere. People are looking to reach out to thousands by the day in this evolving world. But how are you going to reach someone's heart in just 2 minute minutes.
One evening you get to have a stall in the park to clear your head, or maybe push a friend for basketball practice and you get yourself engaged with your immediate neighbour. You actually came out to clear your head, but as you are conversing, you get to check out different job websites from your phone, he notices and gets to ask you what you think about a cetrain kind of job.
I do not know should be out of your vocabulary. Doesn't do you much. Atleast you should know whether you like it or not. Atleast you've heard a friend mention something about it. All the same, say something, as much as you do not know the intention behind the question, always be positive, show that you would be happy to have something like that and save yourself from banging your head against the wall when you get back home on realising you've just passed on an opportunity you have been looking for for a century.
1. Know what you want.
2. Why you want it.
3. The best words you can use to best decribe/summerise your intent/interest.
4. Be sure you are sure.
5. A smile is proof that you like what you are talking about(not laughing out loud)
6.You should have done some research on the internet about it, how to best present it.
Strangers come with luck. Not all strangers have the best intentions. They do not know you. So why care?
All the same, paint the best picture of yourself. It will shine you allover.
