In today’s episode, I share 9 ways to get others to take you seriously.

For a good part of my life, I’ve felt that people never really took me seriously. Even now, I’ve only just learned and implemented some of these ways that I’ll share. I believe that getting people to take you seriously helps earn their trust, and it gives you support in times you’ll need it.

Here are the 9 Ways:

  1. Tighten Up Your Language
  2. Keep Your Commitments
  3. Do Hard Things Consistently
  4. Use Humor Appropriately
  5. Have Clear Goals and Communicate them Effectively
  6. Begin to Lose Fat
  7. Groom Yourself Better
  8. Stop Offering Excuses
  9. Get Things Done
