5 Ways to Get People to Respect You
We all want many things from our life, our partner, society, job and other things but we don’t get all that we want. Respect is one thing which is so much desired by the people in society and friend circle. If a person respects you means he knows that you deserve it. Many of the elders get respected because of their age and experience. But not everyone is like elder people and many of you don’t get respect from the people you want to. Don’t worry guys, if you want respect, you have to earn it by doing hard work, by knowledge, and by some tips and tricks that will make your positive impression that will make people respect you.
Many a time, we all feel that we are not valued or respected in the way we want even if we are so good and kind. Often when you say anything in your friend circle, they don’t value your opinion which makes you feel humiliating. Sometimes you are also harshed and taken for granted because of your behaviour. Today, I am going to discuss 5 ways by which you can make people respect you and give you importance by changing your behaviour.
Ways to get People to Respect You
#1
Start by respecting yourself first
The most important thing from which you can start to get respect is to start respecting yourself. This is the first step because if you don’t value yourself then how can you wish that other people will give you respect. Self-love is the best remedy for solving all your problems, which is also applied in this situation. You should know your worth that will help you look forward and ignore the people who don’t like you or respect you. Your self-respect should be stronger than how you are treated by the people you are surrounded by. There is nothing wrong with self-love because it makes you stronger and capable of facing harsh situation. When you start practising self-love you will get to know that you have full right to live your life with your own choice like what to eat, what to buy, what to offer, etc. You will not face the guilt of saying “NO” to the options you don’t like.
It will also help you to choose your friends and a relationship which is healthy for you.

Stop Over-apologizing
Saying sorry is a kind gesture, but saying sorry all the time even when there is no fault of your’s is wrong because then the value of your sorry is taken for granted by the person who is always hearing it from you. People become habitual of hearing your SORRY. Sometimes, when things don’t go as per the plan, you say sorry; when you are having a different opinion, you say sorry; when you have done something to make yourself happy, you say sorry. But the truth is, if you say sorry for everything, people will think that you are submissive and they can take advantage of it by making you feel guilty for the faults which are not made by you. Your apology should carry a weight that needs to be valued and understood by others. When you cannot do a favour, stop saying sorry for it because that does not require an apology. If you have an opinion, stay with it without any guilt and second thoughts of apologizing for it. If you want to get respect from people, then stop apologizing all the time, you can start by leaving your hobby of saying sorry.
