One day, I hopped into a taxi and took off for the airport. My driver and I were in the right lane of the street, when suddenly a black car jumped out of a parking space, right in front of us. My taxi driver slammed on his brakes, skidded, and missed the other car by just inches!

Men who command respect get big things done in life. Respect opens doors for you that are closed to other men. Respect can build you an empire, sign you a deal, get you a reservation …and attract some of the most beautiful women in the world.
