Hello, welcome to our channel, Top 10s
0:02
You Should Know. Let me ask you
0:04
something. When you think of the most
0:06
respected people in history, in your
0:08
community, or even in your own life, and
0:11
today, we're diving deep into the top 15
0:13
daily rituals of the most respected
0:16
people. The little things they do that
0:18
make a big difference over time. And
0:20
trust me, by the time we reach number
0:22
one, you'll start looking at your own
0:24
daily life very differently. So, grab a
0:27
pen because some of these might just
0:28
change how people see you forever. One,
0:32
they begin the day with a grounding
0:34
moment of stillness.
0:36
Most people wake up and immediately grab
0:38
their phone, flooding their brain with
0:40
emails, messages, and other people's
0:42
priorities. But respected people, they
0:45
guard their mornings like sacred ground.
0:48
Before letting the world in, they spend
0:50
a few moments in stillness. maybe with a
0:52
quiet cup of tea, a short meditation,
0:55
deep breathing, or simply sitting by the
0:57
window watching the sunrise. This isn't
0:59
about wasting time. It's about claiming
1:02
it. It's a daily reminder that they
1:04
control their day, not the other way
1:06
around. In these moments, they center
1:09
themselves, set intentions, and align
1:11
with their values before stepping into
1:13
the noise. Two, they practice daily
1:16
micro acts of respect for others. Here's
1:18
something powerful. Respect is like a
1:21
boomerang. The more you give it away,
1:23
the more it comes back to you. The most
1:26
respected people don't just wait for
1:27
grand opportunities to show respect.
1:30
They weave it into the smallest moments
1:31
of the day.
1:34
It could be addressing someone by their
1:36
name, genuinely thanking the barista who
1:38
hands them their coffee, or holding the
1:40
door just a few extra seconds for the
1:42
person behind them. These micro acts may
1:45
seem small, almost invisible, but they
1:48
create a ripple effect. Because here's
1:50
the truth. Respect isn't a title you
1:53
claim. It's a pattern you prove.
1:56
Three, they keep a personal code of
1:59
non-negotiables.
2:00
Respected people operate from an inner
2:02
compass. And that compass is built on
2:05
non-negotiables. These are personal
2:07
principles they refuse to compromise on,
2:09
no matter how tempting or convenient it
2:11
might be to bend them. It could be
2:13
telling the truth even when it costs
2:15
them, never badmouthing someone behind
2:17
their back, or delivering on every
2:19
promise they make, even the small ones.
2:22
Here's why this matters daily. When you
2:24
have clear non-negotiables, your
2:26
decisions become easier. You don't waste
2:29
energy wondering what's right in each
2:31
moment because your values already
2:33
decided for you. Four, they maintain a
2:36
curiosity first approach to
2:38
conversations.
2:40
We all know someone who dominates
2:41
conversations, constantly steering the
2:43
topic back to themselves. Respected
2:45
people do the opposite. Every single
2:48
day, they approach conversations with
2:50
genuine curiosity, asking thoughtful
2:52
questions, listening without rushing to
2:54
respond, and making the other person
2:56
feel truly seen. This isn't about
2:59
manipulation. It's about connection.
3:01
When you give someone your full
3:03
attention without glancing at your phone
3:05
or mentally preparing your rebuttal, you
3:07
create a rare and valuable space. Number
3:10
five, they follow through on small
3:12
promises immediately.
3:14
The big promises in life get all the
3:16
attention, landing the big deal,
3:18
completing a massive project. But
3:21
respected people know it's the small
3:22
ones that make or break trust. When they
3:25
say, "I'll send you that link," they
3:27
send it before the day ends. If they
3:29
say, "I'll call you tomorrow." They
3:31
don't let tomorrow slip into next week.
3:34
This habit might seem minor, but it
3:36
sends a powerful signal. My word
3:38
matters, even for things most people
3:40
would forget. Over time, these tiny
3:43
follow-throughs build an unshakable
3:45
reputation. People stop wondering if
3:48
you'll deliver, they just know you will.
3:51
Six, they invest 15 minutes in learning
3:53
something new daily. Respected people
3:56
don't just stay relevant, they stay
3:58
ahead. And they do it not with
4:00
occasional bursts of study, but through
4:02
consistent bite-sized learning every
4:04
single day. It could be reading a
4:06
chapter of a book, listening to a short
4:08
podcast, practicing a language, or
4:10
exploring a concept they don't fully
4:12
understand yet. 15 minutes may not sound
4:15
like much, but over a year, that's over
4:17
90 hours of targeted self-growth.
4:20
This steady drip of new knowledge keeps
4:22
their perspectives fresh, their ideas
4:25
innovative, and their conversations
4:27
interesting.
4:28
More importantly, it shows humility, the
4:31
willingness to admit you don't know
4:33
everything. And people respect that
4:35
balance of competence and curiosity. So,
4:38
seven, they make eye contact that
4:40
communicates respect, not dominance. Eye
4:44
contact is powerful, but the way you use
4:46
it determines whether it inspires trust
4:48
or discomfort.
4:50
Respected people understand this
4:51
balance. They don't stare aggressively,
4:53
but they don't avoid looking at you
4:55
either. Instead, they hold a warm,
4:57
steady gaze that says, "I'm here with
4:59
you. I'm listening, and I value what
5:01
you're saying." This kind of eye contact
5:04
builds instant rapport because it sends
5:06
the unspoken message that the other
5:08
person matters. And here's the twist.
5:11
They maintain it even in moments where
5:13
most people would look away, like when
5:15
admitting a mistake or delivering
5:16
uncomfortable feedback.
5:19
Eight, they speak less but mean every
5:22
word. In a world where everyone's
5:24
rushing to be heard, respected, people
5:26
stand out by not overtalking. They
5:29
choose their words with care, pausing
5:31
when necessary and never speaking just
5:34
to fill silence. This doesn't make them
5:36
less expressive. It makes them more
5:39
intentional. When they do speak, people
5:41
lean in because they know it's worth
5:43
hearing. This habit also reduces the
5:46
chance of saying something careless or
5:48
impulsive that could damage trust. And
5:50
perhaps most importantly, it gives more
5:52
space for others to contribute, which
5:54
strengthens relationships. Nine, they
5:57
keep their digital spaces as respectful
5:59
as their physical ones. Respected people
6:02
know that how you carry yourself online
6:04
is just as important as in person. Every
6:08
single day, they curate their digital
6:09
spaces with the same care they'd give to
6:12
a guest in their home. That means
6:14
responding to messages in a timely
6:16
manner, avoiding snarky or passive
6:18
aggressive comments, and not using
6:21
social media as a dumping ground for
6:23
negativity. They also keep their digital
6:25
tools organized because a cluttered
6:27
inbox or chaotic schedule reflects
6:29
directly on how others perceive your
6:31
reliability. Most importantly, they
6:33
understand that tone doesn't translate
6:35
well online, so they read messages twice
6:37
before sending, ensuring they
6:39
communicate respect, not
6:40
misunderstanding.
6:42
10. They take daily moments to express
6:45
gratitude
6:47
publicly. Gratitude isn't just a private
6:50
feeling for respected people. It's
6:52
something they express openly and often.
6:55
They thank the colleague who went the
6:56
extra mile, acknowledge the friend who
6:59
checked in, or post a sincere
7:01
appreciation for their team's hard work.
7:04
This isn't about fishing for attention.
7:06
It's about modeling acknowledgement.
7:08
Because when you shine a light on others
7:10
contributions, you create an atmosphere
7:12
where people feel valued. And here's the
7:15
magic. That energy circles back. People
7:18
start to see you as generous,
7:20
approachable, and grounded. 11. They
7:23
protect their energy with daily
7:25
boundaries. Respected people understand
7:27
that saying yes to everything is a fast
7:30
track to burnout and ironically to
7:32
losing respect. That's why every single
7:34
day they enforce healthy boundaries.
7:37
They might decline a meeting that isn't
7:39
necessary, mute notifications during
7:41
focused work, or limit small talk when
7:43
they need to recharge. This isn't
7:46
selfishness. It's self-respect. And it
7:48
teaches others how to treat them.
7:50
Because here's the truth. If you don't
7:53
value your own time and energy, why
7:55
would anyone else? By protecting their
7:58
limits, respected people show that they
7:59
are intentional about where they invest
8:01
themselves, and that when they do say
8:04
yes, it's because they mean it. 12. They
8:07
notice and acknowledge invisible
8:09
efforts. It's easy to praise the person
8:12
who wins the award or closes the big
8:14
deal, but respected people notice the
8:16
quiet contributions that often go
8:18
unseen. Every day, they make it a point
8:21
to thank the cleaner who stays late, the
8:23
junior staffer who catches mistakes, or
8:25
the teammate who keeps morale up. This
8:27
habit is subtle but powerful because it
8:30
tells people, "I see you even when no
8:33
one else does." It builds loyalty,
8:36
fosters trust, and shows that their
8:37
respect isn't reserved for moments in
8:39
the spotlight. And over time, those they
8:42
acknowledge become their fiercest
8:43
supporters.
8:45
13. They practice consistent
8:47
self-discipline in small choices.
8:50
Discipline is often thought of in terms
8:52
of big life goals, training for a
8:54
marathon, building a business, but
8:56
respected people know it's the daily
8:58
self-control that matters most. Choosing
9:00
a healthy breakfast instead of skipping
9:02
it. Tidying their workspace before
9:04
leaving. Showing up on time every time.
9:09
These may seem trivial, but together
9:11
they form the backbone of a reliable
9:13
character. People notice patterns, and
9:16
when they see that you consistently make
9:17
responsible choices, even when no one's
9:20
watching, their respect deepens. 14.
9:23
They create space for reflection before
9:25
ending the day. Most people crash into
9:28
bed exhausted without taking a moment to
9:30
process the day. Respected people end
9:33
their day differently. They pause even
9:35
briefly to reflect. What went well?
9:38
Where could I have handled things
9:39
better? Who did I impact today? And how?
9:42
This isn't about overthinking. It's
9:44
about consciously learning from each day
9:47
so they grow a little more with each
9:48
sunset. Sometimes they jot down a few
9:51
lines in a journal. Other times they
9:53
simply think through moments while
9:55
sipping tea.
9:57
15. They treat every interaction as a
10:00
chance to leave people better than they
10:02
found them.
10:03
If there's one habit that ties all the
10:06
others together, it's this. Respected
10:08
people enter every interaction with the
10:10
aim of leaving the other person better
10:12
off. That might mean offering a word of
10:15
encouragement, sharing useful advice, or
10:17
simply giving someone a moment of
10:19
genuine human connection in a rushed
10:21
world. They understand that respect
10:23
isn't built in grand speeches. It's
10:26
built in these everyday exchanges. Over
10:29
time, this approach turns them into
10:31
someone people want to be around, not
10:33
just out of obligation, but because they
10:35
make others feel seen, valued, and
10:37
uplifted.
10:39

10:42
