109th BLOG POST -->>
The threat of corona virus is looming
all over the world. With India having been placed in a lockdown for 21 days
amid the spread of corona virus, various celebrities have come out to advise
people to stay inside their homes. Government has been trying to spread the
message that to defeat corona virus, self-isolation and quarantine are the most
effective defense mechanism. We need to follow government instruction strictly.
On the other hand, due to lockdown, everyone is adopting some creative work in
their homes. Some are remembering their old time spent before lockdown by
posting photos on social media I'm spending my time by teaching and interacting
with students on some online platform. I’m also sharing some moments captured
before lockdown. I write this blog post after watching a reality show, in that
show respect was a big issue among all contestants.
All peoples have different views on
gaining and giving respect. Everyone wants to be respected, but that respect needs to be
earned. Respect is something not automatically given. It must be earned.
Whenever
it comes to gaining respect in life, people try several things. Some of them go
out of their tracks to do something that will make them look different but end
up looking horrible and funny while some get successful in their adventure. I’ve
always wanted myself, my parents, my friends, their parents and almost everyone
connected directly or indirectly to me, to be respectful in society. Any time
when I see any of them getting dishonor and being made fun of, I feel very sad.
I wish that I could do something for them but then I sit back and continue
doing my stuffs. But I try to do as much as I can.

We’ve seen many
examples of cricketer like MS Dhoni, Sachin Tendulkar, Saurav Ganguly etc who
never lost his track to bring his friend on track. Like game we’ve seen such
politician who didn't lose his position by supporting his or her friend who was
doing wrong at the moment. Being followers of such personalities, I think why
should I go and keep suggesting my friends to be respectful than doing some
funny sorts of thing in life to make fun of themselves. I’m providing them free
advice for once or twice but I don't have all time in life to suggest them such
things. There are some basic things which make us respectful; I would like to
discuss them in this post.
First I’ll talk
about our saving. In today's fast moving time, saving is necessary and he/she
should know the art of spending their money. But people have a big false notion
that the way they spend their money is what makes them popular and respectful
in society. The importance of saving money is rarely disputed. Sometimes they
never concentrate on the basic thing and will end up spending so much of their
money which could have been saved for the future. it's true that once they'll
do this and will regret later. Purpose of doing this what they prefer is to
look rich and luxurious among people. But the fact is that people respect those
who have quite money in their bank account than the amount of money they spend
in their life. In our society a sweeper is respected because he/she has 10
lakhs in his/her bank account that he/she got after selling her land. While a
family who has many luxury cars and bikes aren't respected only because they're
in heavy loans and bank agents keep coming to their house on regular basis to recover
the loan amount. Hence try to save as much as possible than spending. Savings
of one rupee can also add up to Rs. 30 at the end of the month which is enough
to fill your stomach in extreme hunger and misery.
In the second point, I'll talk about the
property. I’ve seen and experienced the life of living from a village and town
to metro cities. In metro city's society what I've seen is that, some families
who are on rent are never called upon in the special functions such as
marriages, engagements, receptions, anniversaries, birthdays etc because the
flat owners believes that all these peoples are here for temporary basis and
will leave the society when they want, so why to waste money on such family.
But in village and town level such things doesn’t exist. Every time a new resident
comes in any area then people living nearby start inquiring whether he's an
owner of the flat (purchased here) or is on rental-basis. Once his nearby
people will come to know that they have some flats, plots, and bungalow and
have a setup business in different areas or they've government job, nearby
people will start respecting him. By the way building a property takes lots of
courage and conviction. Not everyone in India has their own home. Everyone
would want to have at least a roof over their head in any phase of life or even
in extreme cases of poverty. So save your
money as soon as you get job and start investing in properties.

Next
point is your standard of living should be good. A standard is a statement
about how you live your life, what is the level of behavior that you follow. To
raise the quality of your life, set higher standards if possible. Standards are codes of behavior that
you choose to live by because you know they will make your life contended.
Because they are the things that you personally honor, you need not declare
them to the outside world. The standards can be about your work-life balance,
health, soul, relationship, approach to finance, how we wearing clothes and
just about any area of life that you wish to improve. Let’s suppose you've lots
of money, properties and doing a good job etc but you don't dress properly, you
don't go to good restaurants whenever you go, you don't keeping cleanliness
like at your home, not talking people properly, you aren't workaholic etc, and
people will still reserve themselves from respecting you or thinking highly
about you. Now you tell me yourself - would you like to hang out with a rich
friend who does not iron his shirt or polish his shoes? No … Right? Therefore,
we should ensure that even when we're not really rich, we still have a good
standard of living and manners. Therefore, we should ensure that even when
we're not really rich, we still have a good standard of living and manners.
Our habits also
play an important role. Here, I am not talking about only those habits that
were taught us in schools or colleges but it is an overall summation of the
virtues we should have in life. Habits may be your actions, listening to
others, are willing to change, aggressions etc. Suppose if you come across as a
person who has an abusive mouth, a fighting attitude, argumentative nature,
disrespectful accent or you are a liar, cheater, fraud, betrayal, criminal,
woman-beater etc, then people will look
at you with a very ugly grin even when you are Sarpanch, MLA, MP, Cabinet
Minister in state or centre government, richest person of the society or the
most powerful person of the society. We have seen many examples on news
channels and newspapers for the past decade when we have seen how billionaires
have turned out to be frauds and criminals and have lost all the respect they
have earned in their lifetime. So always make sure that you are not involved in
some illegal or indecent activity in life. Stay high in regards. And you will
see good people contacting themselves and you will see good people approaching
you themselves.

Last but the best one is your friend circle.
Friendship with good people helps us to eliminate our problems and lessen the
burdens of our mind. Friends are a good part of life but not the best until and
unless they are not better human beings than you. Always make it sure that your
friend circle is awesome. When you and every friend with whom you hang out, go
for trips, sit on weekends have amazing personalities and are capable enough in
life, people will respect you. It is a powerful fact that every human
recognizes / knows that a human being is always like a company of people, just
as he / she wants to be. For example if I like traveling places, you will find
me connecting with those who are regular trekkers and travelers. If I want to
be a famous personality, you will find me meeting with similar faces. So,
always make sure that not a single friend of yours is involved in any kind of
cheap or bad work. Because of this friend circle, you are going to be judged by
the people with whom you talk; though it's occasional. Friends are very
important and I have mentioned this point in the end of the post so that this
remains in your mind once you read out of this post and enter in to the real
world.
Thanks
