Respect is something a thing that we only do for someone we think is a good person. Sometimes the way we treat others is due to their achievements, failures, and even appearance, because of this characteristics we end up being unfair with other persons.
If you want others to respect you it doesn't mean that you have to accomplish something nor please everyone. You can't force everyone to respect you, but you can respect everyone. Everybody deserves a respect, even if sometimes we make mistakes that doesn't mean that we no longer deserve it.
As a human being we're not perfect, we commit mistakes and make efforts to correct it. No matter who you are and what you have accomplished in your life, it doesn't mean that you are perfect nor a good person. Everyone of us are equal and everybody deserves a respect.
Respect must start with ourselves, because you can't give to others what you don't have.
Start it with yourself and see the magic that it brings in your life. :)
