It’s better to be respected than to be merely liked. If you refuse to bend to a person’s expectation of you, they may choose to dislike you. However, if you’re respected, it’s probably due to the fact that you’re fair, consistent, and reliable. The bar for respect is much higher (and more noble) than the bar for being liked. Aim high.
