How To Command And Truly Get Respect From Other People: Seven Tips And Tricks.
In the heart of fussing and chaotic New York City, I witnessed a sight that left me considering a question: “What does it truly take for someone to earn and command respect?”
I was visiting my cousins in New York last year. I must say, I absolutely adore crowded places! Chinatown did not flatter my nostrils, but hey! I love a good fried fish.
Anyways, It was an ordinary day, but the lesson I learned was far from ordinary.
A street performer, a violinist to be precise, set up his case under the skyscrapers.
With the violin embraced close to him, he played simple yet hauntingly beautiful melodies that felt hypnotic to me. Respect was given willingly and abundantly.
This scene made me think about how we can apply the principles of authenticity, empathy, and understanding to earn the respect we desire.
Respect is a human need, and it’s not something that can be demanded; it must be cultivated. We all have the potential to earn respect by showing our skills and embracing these virtues.
I have gathered seven tips and tricks on how to become a magnetic and respected person.
