The way you award respect to others will have a material impact on your relationships. I would also argue, it also says a great deal about your level of maturity.
There are many ways to respect others, so let’s play a little game.
Are you awarding respect in a healthy, or an unhealthy way?
Think of 3 or 4 people you respect.
For each, note down what why they have your respect.
Take your time, this is really important. If you can get this right, your relationships, and the benefits that flow (each way) are going to skyrocket.
Don’t miss this opportunity. Write them down, at least 3 reasons for each person you are thinking of.
Do you notice any themes in the way you award respect?
Much as I’d love to reveal what’s in my mind right now, I’m going to leave it for a few days to let you reflect. This will help you to embrace this idea.
Check back here end of the week and you’ll find the continuation, Healthy Respect.
