Respect is always earned. You should be able to inspire people with your kind and wise actions and only then can they genuinely respect you.
If you want to climb the social ladder, here are some ways to gain genuine respect from people.
1. Keep your promises
Never forget to keep your promises. And never disrespect other people by breaking the promises that you have made to them. When you keep your promise, it shows you as a responsible individual who is accountable for your actions.
2. Don’t apologise always
If you utter a ‘I am sorry’ in any situation, people begin losing respect for you. You need to learn to stand up for yourself and stand your ground. Don’t let others walk over you just like that. Only apologise in situations where you have made mistakes.
3. Don’t gossip
When you gossip endlessly, you give others the impression that you are a negative and irrelevant person who tries to stay in the game by gossiping about others. When you have nothing better to do than gossip, how will others respect you?
4. Don’t be too nice to people always
When you are always nice, cordial and understanding, the wrong people take advantage of you. They pull you down and make you suffer from emotional and mental issues.
5. Practice being humble
Always be humble and kind. This is a quality that sets you apart from others. People will always remember you being humble and kind. You should never brag unnecessarily about your achievements, wealth or about things you have.
