Respecting the efforts of others and rejecting a sense of entitlement.

"In our lives, it's undeniable that some people tend to take what others do for them for granted. This behavior can manifest in intimate relationships, family life, workplace, or social interactions, but regardless of where it occurs, it reflects a lack of respect and gratitude.

Often, someone's efforts for another person in life gradually become taken for granted. For example, a mother's daily hard work in cooking and cleaning for the family can, over time, be seen as something expected. In social life, when one friend consistently does more for another, it can also be taken for granted and not appreciated. The same can happen in romantic relationships. Such situations are inevitable in our lives, and it's not appropriate whether it's someone taking others for granted or vice versa.

We need to understand that everyone has their own lives, needs, and responsibilities. In our busy lives, we may sometimes overlook the efforts of others and assume it's something expected. This attitude can lead to unhappy relationships and social distancing. Therefore, we need to reflect on our behavior and try to be more respectful and appreciative of others' efforts.

So, how can we cherish the efforts of others? Firstly, we should learn to express gratitude. Whether it's a small gift, a compliment, or a heartfelt thank-you note, these gestures can make others feel valued and cherished. Additionally, we should listen to others, care about their needs and feelings. If we can proactively ask if they need help or provide support, it will help build closer relationships.

Furthermore, we should learn not to have overly high expectations. Sometimes, we expect others to do certain things for us, but if they don't meet our expectations, we feel disappointed and dissatisfied. However, it's important to remember that everyone has their own ways and capabilities and may not necessarily meet all our expectations. Therefore, we should be more tolerant and understanding, accepting the differences in others.

Lastly, we should reflect on our own behavior. Sometimes, we may unconsciously take others' efforts for granted, but when we put ourselves in their shoes, we will appreciate their efforts more. Self-reflection helps us become more aware of our actions and strive for improvement.

In conclusion, respecting and appreciating the efforts of others are key to building good relationships and maintaining social harmony. We should learn to cherish others' efforts, express gratitude, listen to others, let go of our own expectations, and continually reflect on our behavior. Only in this way can we build closer and more respectful interpersonal relationships and make our lives better."

Actually, respecting others is respecting oneself.

Often, many people tend to take things for granted, assuming that if you've done something for a while, it's automatically your responsibility, without any sense of gratitude. In fact, I need to remind myself of this as well, not to treat others' kindness as something I'm entitled to.

There are still not many people who understand how to respect others.
