How to earn respect from others?
Respect yourself first
First and foremost you need to respect yourself first. Actually some people around us will respect you and some are won't and we can't control that. All we can do is to focus on feeling good about ourselves. If we are doing what's right , what is best and what works for us and those things will help to achieve our goals then the people who matter will naturally respect us. But better yet, you'll respect yourself and thats the best respect of all.
Actually I decided to write this article because I saw something in one of the social media that for me it is not good as a decent woman. Yesterday I was browsing one of my social media account and I saw a post of a young lady with a caption of she was out in the market now and looking for a rich boyfriend who want to buy. She's referring herself as a NFT that will list in the marketplace to sell. At first I am laughing and I told to my friends that we can do that also to have money but for me its just a joke.
I am not judging her, we don't really know if she post it just for fun. I saw and read some comments and other people are laughing to her and other are dislike her post. We can't control the mindset of the people who can read and saw our post. Some take it as a kind of joke and some take it seriously. But for me doing that thing is not fun and not a joke. Some people lost respect for her because she did that. That's the reason why you need to respect yourself first to earn the respect of others. For me doing such thing is not respectable as a woman, maybe because I came from a conservative family. And some of us came from a liberated one thats the reason why we have different opinion and views in life. I'm not against her and I'm not judging her. What I am pointing is if my sister or some girls close to me will do that, its not funny for me. I know its just a kind of joke but like what I said not all people can laugh at this kind of thing. But if she feels happy in what she did, then be it. We are in a free country and we can do what we want as long as we can't hurt other people around us.
Other ways to earn respect
1.BE KIND- They say "Be kind to others so that they will be kind to you also," Always be polite to everyone you will meet during the day, from your family up to someone you didnt know and you just bump and saw in the street.
2.ACT RESPECTFULLY -It is same to the one that I point out earlier. How will people respect you if you didn't act as a respected one?
3.CONSISTENTLY KEEP YOUR PROMISES- Don't say promises if you don't have a plan to fulfill it. One promise broken is like one respect lost. It is okay if you didn't do it because of some important matter but if you did it twice or thrice that is foul for me.
4.HELP OTHERS WHEN THEY NEED IT-Help others if you can in a different kind of situation or location. Helping others without expecting anything in return.
5.ASK FOR HELP WHEN YOU NEED IT- Asking some help for someone is not bad afterall. We can't live alone, we need someone to help us in times of need. All people are asking for help. Don't be shy when you need a help from someone.
6.ADMIT YOUR MISTAKES- Admiiting our mistakes doesn't mean we are coward, for me it is one of the bravest action or decision that we can do in our life. We are not right in all times, we are just a simple person who commit mistakes sometimes. The most important is admit your mistakes and don't do that again.
Attitude is a choice. Happiness is a choice. Optimism is a choice. Kindness is a choice. Giving is a choice. Respect is a choice. Whatever choice you ...
Tolerance implies a respect for another person, not because he is wrong or even because he is right, but because he is human. -John Cogley

I would say you just took the words right out of my mouth. The way that lady treated herself as saleable commodity , why on earth anyone will treat her respectfully. People will respect you when you recognise your worth and respect yourself first. It is an emotion that starts from you. Those who don’t respect themselves, they would neither be respected by other, nor will they respect others. Respect follows the 3rd law of Newton. Every action has a reaction.
