Respect isn’t given—and it’s definitely not taken. It’s earned in quiet, unexpected, unconventional ways.

Most books on respect tell you to talk louder, act tougher, or win more arguments. This book doesn’t.
Instead, HOW TO BE RESPECTED shows you how the smartest, most quietly powerful people earn real respect—not by dominating the room, but by mastering themselves.

In this sharp, surprising, and deeply practical collection of 14 short essays, Jake Morimoto dismantles the loud, flashy myths of modern authority—and replaces them with proven, counterintuitive strategies used by thinkers, athletes, founders, spies, and artists who know how to command respect without ever demanding it.

You’ll discover:

✅ Why an overlooked skill beats charisma—every time
✅ How saying a simple sentence instantly makes people trust you more
✅ The strange psychology behind losing arguments—and still winning people over
✅ How to win over the loudest person in the room
✅ Why the most respected people do the dirty work no one else wants to
✅ How remembering someone’s dog’s name is more powerful than a LinkedIn post
✅ Why surprise generosity (with nothing to gain) builds admiration that lasts years

This isn’t a book about dominance, alpha moves, or social media optics.
It’s about becoming the kind of person whose respect isn’t demanded—because it’s obvious.

If you loved The Psychology of Influence, Dare to Lead, or Ego Is the Enemy, you’ll underline every page of HOW TO BE RESPECTED.

Start earning real respect—quietly, cleverly, and on your own terms.
