Selflessly go out of their way to help another.

Not one blessed thing. My respect is given to those who show consistent care and concern for others over a long period of time.
Anybody can be a "one day wonder" and do something nice once, but only those who show what I think of as everyday grace are going to earn my respect.

Nobody can "instantly" earn my respect. It takes a little while.

I don't know if there's any one thing you can do to earn someone's respect... I think it's more of a long-term process. Well, I suppose that's how it is for me; it's probably different for others.

Nothing. I don't think like most people do, and I'll get a lot of thumbs down for this, but I will give anyone my respect and trust until they prove to me that they aren't worthy of either.
You don't earn my respect, you lose it. But I also tend to give second and third chances, so it takes a lot for me to lose my respect --or trust-- in someone.

like many have said respect is earned over time in large amounts but the thing that earns my respect the fastest is when someone loves like Jesus

Nothing. Respect is earned.

Tell the truth about something that is difficult or shameful to admit.
Give up something to help others.
Speak to a stranger instead of ignoring people around them.
Forgive someone with utmost sincerity ~ I mean really truly from the heart and with a warm smile on their face.

Demonstrate their honesty in some tangible way. There are very few who have earned my respect.

Earning my respect is not necessary.
I give respect instantly.

Personally I find honesty to be the highest human virtue, even if that person hates me and wants to kill me.
If he's honest about it, I can respect that.
