How to get Respect

What is Respect? Everyone knows the word “respect”, but my experience shows that most people in today’s world don’t understand its true meaning. If you take an average person and ask them what it means to them to respect someone, you’ll get all sorts of definitions. And most of them will have nothing to do with real respect. Let me give you few most common examples of what people define as respect: · You can “respect” someone because they have power. · Famous people and celebrities get “respect”. · Money can buy “respect” · Authority can be a source of “respect”. That’s not what respect is all about! Real respect is something that you feel out of your free will, and it goes both ways. That means that you respect someone because of their character and their relationship with you, regardless of their financial status, position of power, position of authority, etc. Respect needs to be earned by behavior only, and it has to be a mutual feeling between the people involved
