Don’t Wait To Be Treated With Respect

Don’t wait for people to treat you with respect. Whatever it is that you want from other people, you must give it out. Be the first person to love people, to respect people, and to treat people with dignity.

Nothing is free. If you want love, then give love to others. If you want to be treated with respect, then treat others with respect. And it will come back to you.

According to Gregg Ward, ‘Be the first to respect. Don’t wait to be treated with respect before being respectful. Be the first to treat everyone you meet, even perfect strangers, with respect.’

Always Look For Those Things In Others That Are Worthy Of Respect

‘It’s easy to find things to criticize in other people. It’s also fairly easy to find those things in others that you, and others, should respect– if you look. Look for, and acknowledge ‘diamonds in the rough,’ those things in others that are worthy of respect.’- Gregg Ward with Walter G. Meyer

No one is perfect. We are not perfect. If you want to know other people, do not judge them. Don’t judge them before you see them. Don’t focus on people’s weaknesses. Focus on what they are really good at- the thing that makes them unique. If you look for, you will find it.
