There is a big difference between getting attention and being respected. Try not to waste your lifetime seeking for worldly attention. All the attention in the world will never make up for the lack of self-love in one's life.
~ Hafiz
Respect isn't automatically earned. You have to first position yourself with a level of mannerism that's worth emulating, before others could see a strong reason to respect you.
Money can buy you attention, but it can never buy you true respect.
