Alex Hormozi Life advice 2 : earn your own respect first. #lifechanging #lifelessons #advice

Lesson number two was that the hardest respect to earn is one's own. What I realized, and this was something that was really hard for me, is that I had a pretty bad reputation in the very beginning of my college career and all of my high school career. And it was because I drank too much, I was irresponsible, I slept around a lot, and I wasn't representing the type of person that I wanted to be. And so it was only through a conversation I had with my father where I said, how do I change my reputation? How do I get these people to stop saying this stuff? And he said, why don't you stop being a piece of? That really stuck with me, and I started thinking about it. And so then I tried to start acting in that way to be someone whose respect my own I would earn. And so when I started doing that, nothing changed. Extremely externally, people still treated me like I was piece of, and they were probably right. But my behavior began to change, and then slowly, so did my reputation. But it started with me trying to respect myself first, and then others began to respect me as a result.
