How to Get People to Take You Seriously
How people perceive you are critical to your personal and professional success
Getting people to take you seriously is critical to your personal and professional success.
If you’re going to get anywhere in your career and business, you need others to trust you and take you seriously.
This is because people who take you seriously recognize your value; they respect and trust you; they know what you bring to the table; and they want to be as close to you as possible.
So how do you make this happen?
Approach Every Interaction With Humility
If you want to connect with people and earn their respect, you need to approach every interaction with humility.
Humility isn’t about downplaying yourself; it’s more about thinking of yourself less.
Humble people are confident in themselves, their strengths, and their achievements, but they also know that they’re just like everyone else, with faults, shortcomings, and failures.
It’s about showing others that you don’t have all the answers and are open to learning from them.
