How does one become an entertaining and engaging person?

I wish that I was a more compelling storyteller. I just don't think I'm very good at spinning the events that happen in my life to make them sound interesting.

I also wish that I were better at telling jokes. Friends of mine... please make me try to tell you jokes next time we are hanging out. I'm working on being better at it.

I'm pretty sure that this needs to be added to the list of things to accomplish in my life if it wasn't there already...

Now that I think of it, telling good jokes was on my list. People, make me work on this!
