After being sure that you truly know how to respect yourself, you realize that respecting others as well should be a duty and a pleasure. You clearly see that being unkind doesn't make you feel better, that patronizing doesn't make you superior, that trying to control doesn't give you real power. You don't respect another when you endeavor to make them feel somewhat "less" than you, as if they don't actually deserve to be taken in due consideration. But everybody has value, everybody needs and deserves to be appreciated. Therefore every intelligent, balanced person instinctively knows that respect is the first and most important attitude towards any fellow human being.
