In any kind of relationship or friendship, respect is very important and this respect plays an important role in making it very strong. Most of the time respect is violated from time to time. If at all you attempt to have a crucial conversation and there is disrespect from the opposite side, it’s a matter of concern. For the initial period, you can tolerate disrespect, but for a longer period, it is not possible. Here we look at how to stop giving too much power to someone who disrespects you.

* Establish healthy boundaries always. You have a co-worker who wastes his time doing negative activities. It’s important to set healthy boundaries and don’t give too much power to them.

* Let other people be responsible for their emotions. You can’t make everyone happy and you can’t make anyone mad. Your actions are very important and you need to manage how people feel.

* Don’t give unnecessary power to someone, rather live according to your values. You should be less concerned about other people’s opinions when you are clear about your values. On your own, you do work for long hours, enjoy hobbies, or practice your faith.

* Always forgive and move forward. Don’t waste your precious time and energy on past things. Forgiveness is about forgetting the past and not giving much importance to the person who disrespects you.

* Instead of concentrating on other people, who disrespect you, concentrate on your goals. Also, don’t depend upon others’ opinions and don’t make yourself dependent on anyone else.

* Don’t waste your energy complaining about others and don’t occupy more space for others.

Those were a few things about how to stop giving much power to someone who disrespects you.
