STOP BEING NICE - How People Are Using Your Kindness Against You

The Cost of Goodness — Why Being “Too Nice” Destroys Your Power You were taught that kindness creates loyalty, that goodness keeps you safe. But in the real world, goodness without strategy doesn’t protect you — it exposes you. In this video, you’ll learn the 10 rules of Strategic Goodness: how to stop being used, how to turn “no” into respect, and how to stay kind without becoming harmless. Drawing on Machiavelli, Stoicism, and modern psychology, we’ll break the illusion that “good people win in the end” — and show you how to turn your goodness into controlled power instead of quiet suffering. 👉 Watch until the end to learn how to stop training people to exploit you — and start leading with strength, clarity, and intentional kindness. ________________________________________ 📚 References & Foundations Niccolò Machiavelli – The Prince (1532), esp.
