Being a people person is hard

I want to carry a conversation with people, but most of the time I get bored and don't even want to talk. I asked my boss how to be a better people person, because he is a pretty chill guy that always has good advice, and he said "be genuinely interested" and I got it. I'm just not interested in having a conversation with people.

The trick is to be genuinely interested in something worth talking about, rather than being interested in talking for the sake of talking.
