Do NICE People WIN In JUST 1 Minute?

Evan Carmichael's media coach wants him to be tougher on air, interrupting callers and raising his voice to keep people engaged. Carmichael is naturally nice and conflict-avoidant, so the approach feels wrong to him. He asks viewers whether nice people finish first or last in business.

Hey guys, it's Evan. I have a quick question for you. I want to know if you think nice people finish first or last in business. This came out because I've been working with a media coach and she's been training me on making these videos, on answering calls, on the radio, and, you know, being more on point when I'm in front of the camera or doing anything related to the media. Today she told me, "You have to be tougher." You have to show entrepreneurs more tough love. Especially when I'm on the radio. A problem I face is people call in and I only have a few minutes to help them. And if people are talking too much, she wants me to interrupt them, yell at them if I have to, get their attention, you know, call them crazy, whatever it takes to get them to listen to what I have to say. She wants me to be meaner. And I wanna know what you guys think. This is a big stretch for me, this is outside my comfort zone. In general, I'm a pretty nice guy, easy to get along with. Avoid conflict if I can. I'm not afraid of it if I have to get into it, if it's important. But in general, I'm not going around picking fights with people. Her opinion is that through tough love, I'm going to be able to help them more. And I'd like to hear what you guys have to think. Do nice people finish first or last in business? Please leave a comment below, have your vote, and, uh, we'll see where it goes. Thank you guys. I'm looking forward to the comments. See you soon.
