Reflection on ''Article #5'' (2nd semester)

This article informs us about ''power phrases'' that can be beneficial in getting respect from the others. Before expressing my own comments on this topic,I admit that the author is exactly on my side. 

Many people may have asked this question to themselves at least once; ''How can I get respect from the others?'' In daily life, we are necessarily struggling for having a status among the people around us,which may sometimes  wear us down. When asked why, majority of the people can not give an exact answer to this question even though it is highly clear. It is simply because of human nature. When participating in a new community, we try to make ourselves realized by the others just by following our instincts,which of course does not directly mean that when attracting attention,we are getting respect,as well. Getting respect is more than getting realized. Our speech and attitudes toward the others determine the limits of respect that we earn.What we think and say should go with each other.Then you will be sure that the others will act in the same way toward you. An old saying may help us to get the point;''what goes around,comes around...'' In addition to our extrinsic attitudes, how we behave ourselves is also crucial.That is to say, it will be weird to expect respect from the others if you do not have respect for yourself. First you believe in yourself,and then the rest will absolutely do the same toward you. All in all, I am of the opinion that this article is highly informative and can give us hand to understand how to earn respect.
