PUT SOME SEPARATION IF YOU WANT RESPECT

Don't be so close with people if you want respect, you need to put some separation or else they will never get intimidated at you, they will treat you as an ordinary human being that has no value at all.

If you want some of your family members to respect you... don't show yourself to them for a couple of months, they will miss you if you do that, they will become so excited to see you, they will give you special treatment because they miss your presence too much. That's why people who work from abroad were respected by their family members too much, it's not that they have a lot of money, it is a factor too but they were respected too much because their family were longing for their presence for a very long time, they look like a special person.

If you want your co-employees or neighbors to respect you... put some separation, don't get close with them too much, make yourself unpredictable, make yourself a mystery, never reveal everything about you to them or else they will know your weakness, they will know how to attack you. Be a snob if you need to, make them feel uncomfortable when you're around. They will respect you because they don't know what you are capable of doing.

Look for separation, if you're competing in sports... you need to have separation from everyone else if you want respect, train harder than them, work longer than them, have more mental toughness than them.... you need to create a separation. If they are partying then you need to be working, if they are sleeping then you need to be working, you need to stop doing what everyone else is doing... that is the best way to create separation.
