As a child I was taught the importance of respect – we were taught showing respect for other people, showing respect for other’s cultures, showing respect for people’s position of authority, showing respect for a venue, showing respect for an event, etc. This principle was emphasized greatly in my home and it is something I have grown to value deeply. It has been a tremendous benefit to me in my business life, and in my personal life. It has also allowed me to be comfortable mingling in any situation and with any group of people, even at times when situations were extremely intimidating for me, because I knew that I would do okay so long as I applied the principles of respect that my parents taught me. From those experiences I have come to understand that being able to respect others helps you have more confidence yourself in every situation.
