Respect is something that is earned through your actions and behavior towards others.

Here are some tips on how you can earn someone's respect:

Be sincere and honest: Honesty is one of the most valued qualities in a person.

Always try to be sincere and honest in your words and actions.

Treat others with respect: Treat others as you would like to be treated.

Respect their opinions, their time, and their personal space.

Be consistent: Make sure your behavior is consistent and predictable.

If you are trustworthy and consistent in your actions, people will trust and respect you more.

Active listening: Listen carefully to what others have to say, show that you are interested in their thoughts and feelings.

Avoid interrupting or judging their opinions.

Be empathic: Try to put yourself in the shoes of others and try to understand their perspective.

If you can show empathy towards others, they will be more willing to respect you.

Be a good example: Show your leadership skills and take the initiative to do the right thing.

If you can be a good example to others, you will earn their respect.

Remember that earning someone's respect takes time and effort.

Don't expect it to happen overnight, but if you focus on being an honest, respectful, and trustworthy person, you will eventually earn the respect of others.

I never try to earn someone's respect, I do what I feel is right, and act on integrity, and values etc. But I will never go out my way to earn a particular person's respect. Because it doesn't matter, cause no matter you do, if they don't like you, you will always be annoying to them.

I have learnt from working in workplace it doesn't if your the hardest working in person in the building, people and managers still won't respect you, people have to like you as a person as well.

Treat everyone with respect and kindness. Most people reciprocate what you give. Those who still doesn't, you need to walk away/ignore them because they are not worth your time. Some people won't like you for no reason and won't respect you no matter what you do for them or others. You can't make someone respect you or like you. Remember that.

You get people's respect by showing them who you are, who you really are. You don't just say who you are, you also show it. The decisions you make, how you pick yourself up from mistakes, how you challenge yourself, how you look at life, ... that is how you gain respect.

Be your own person. Be someone worthy of respecting in their own right and do your own thing (well), and people will respect you.

Respect is earned. Just be respectful and don’t step on anyone’s shoes and be real. None of that fake shit that I hate whenever I meet people who try too hard to be nice when they’re not. Just be real! And I’ll respect you regardless if we agree or not!

shades777 · Answer

People give respect based on their own of beliefs. for example they may value hard work, so anyone thats hard wirking in their eyes is worthy of their respect or maybe their racist so no matter how hard you work you won't get their respect.

So in this example even a hard working man misses an opportunity because the boss is racist and only values hard work from someone who looks like him.

another example, same exact thing but this time the boss is christian and the hard working man is muslim, again respect not give simply because that mans beliefs are different

If you want to earn someone's respect, be there for them. Just be a friend whether it is at work or in your regular life. Keep to your morals and don't be flakey.

Too vague. Do you want someone to respect your work? or respect your feeling in a relationship? or respect your boundary? what's your background? What's the scenario?

List your boundaries to them early on and let them know if they go against those that they are disrespecting you. To me, you respect me by default. Idc how close we are
