7 Traits To Become a Respected Man: 1. Never let anyone hear you complain. Your feelings are irrelevant to others; do what needs to be done with a smile on your face. 2. Act with irrational self-belief. It doesn’t matter if others say you can’t, since you know you can. Ignore their opinions; you can do anything. 3. Admit when you are wrong. You don’t know everything. Own up to your mistakes as quickly as possible as it’s the fastest way for you to learn. 4. Progress is made through iteration. If you claim you’re going to do something, hold yourself responsible. Your reputation is your sole asset. 5. Control your emotions. Your emotions cloud your judgment. People will look to you for guidance and leadership. Don’t react; be decisive. 6. Meaningful influence. Most people drift through life. They have no purpose, no direction, and zero intent. Learn their needs, and lead them.
