Question

Can anyone please help? I'm having an elocution tomorrow, regarding the topic, "We must give respect to earn respect." Please someone help! I need to learn it.

Answer 1

Each one of us wants to be respected in our lives. Nobody loves to get humiliated. When others criticise  us or speak behind our backs, and if we get affected or react to them in any way, it would mean that our self esteem is very fragile and based on a weak foundation.

We base our self esteem on  the opinions of others, but what we forget is that every person will have a different opinion about us and we can never really know what others are thinking, because we’re not connected to their  minds. Even if we do know what others are thinking, aren’t they entitled to have their opinion? Why should we allow their opinion to shake our self esteem and lose our inner stability? Stop worrying about what others think of you. Once you know who you are and your true self, you need not depend on the opinion of others.

Self esteem and self respect are intimately linked. One is not possible without the other. All of  us have been taught how to respect others, but are we taught how to respect ourselves?  Not Really! Because of this, our relationships lack harmony and our lives are filled with both inner and outer conflicts.

Answer 2

we must give respect to earn respect...
but in today's time... no one thinks about it... not at all.. but just everythink is when he or she can't respect us and who am I to give respect to him or her... First of all...we should change ourselves then we should think about others... have you ever thought... if I can respect him or her then I will definitely get it... Ohh great.. here also science works... EVERY ACTION HAS EQUAL AND OPPOSITE REACTION... that's what we should think and what the science says is universal truth... so change yourself... think youself...
