You can not buy this, steal it or fake it; you absolutely have to earn it:  RESPECT!

One of my clients always commands respect from everyone.   I have represented him, his family and friends through many transactions.  When he says "jump", I make it happen, regardless of how busy I am. 

This man has the respect of his family, his friends and his associates.  When he speaks, people listen.  What does he do that garners him this coveted place of honor?

1.  He is ALWAYS very respectful of everyone.  Regardless of status or position, he always treats every person with the utmost respect.  His sentences are punctuated by "Please", "Thank you", "May I" and "I appreciate it". 

2.  He never demands anything; he always asks for it politely.

3.  His word is golden.  If he says he'll do something, he always does.  He never makes promises he can not keep.

4.  He is loyal to his family, friends and associates.  He shows his loyalty by always being there for them, whether it's with advice or special favors.  If you need something, he will do his best to help you.

5.  He is always respectful of my time and makes sure I get paid.  He never asks me to discount my services.  He values my professionalism.  He is always fair in his dealings; he never expects "to steal" a property, only to garner a good deal.

6.  He never talks badly about anyone.  When he has nothing good to say about someone, he says nothing.

Ultimately, He commands respect by always giving it.    

What a good lesson to learn for so many people...
