Respect

It is a made-up belief within our evolving measurement system we use to evaluate values, fairness, and potential.

Made-up belief... Because there is no measurement unit (inches, gallons, meters, etc.), we create it based on our experiences, culture, and what we have been exposed to. Beliefs can be changed instantly with new information. This system is subjective and created by the individual. Thus, made up.

Evolving measurement system... Respect is, by definition, a judgment of worth. This assessment system is always evolving as we grow, learn more, and see things differently. My respect system at 21 is very different than at 40.

The main categories we assess respect falls under three main categories. Values, potential, and fairness. Here are some words that fall in these categories. (there are many more)

Values: Trust, safety, consideration, loyalty, morals, disregard, Rudeness, generosity, kindness, manners, principal(s), intelligence, skill, hard-working, accountability, status, and punctuality.

Potential: Belief, obedience, loyalty, defiance, Love, kindness, effort, tact, winning, accomplishments, status, achievements, elders, winning a championship, gold medal, doctorate, graduation.

Fairness: Appreciation, generosity, justice, support, differences, kindness, the golden rule.
I respect people who treat others the way they like to be treated.

I respect the effort and dedication they put in to build their dream!

I respect people on time and who are considerate of others' schedules.

No Respect

The catchphrase of American stand up comic Rodney Dangerfield.
