Stop playing nice if it means letting people steamroll you and feeling hollow inside. The speaker argues that constant pleasantness masks a lack of authenticity and costs you emotionally. Pause and ask yourself: are you being genuine, or just trying to be liked?
Stop being nice at the expense of being real. Playing nice gets you steamrolled. What do I mean by that? You know what it's like to be the person that goes, oh no, no, it's fine, it's fine. No, no, no, really, no, it's just fine. Don't worry. You just what? You people, please, constantly, you are just being nice to everybody and everybody says, you know what, that's so-and-so, they're so nice. And then they go on about their day and you know what they do? They use you. How many of you listening right now Truly, just take a breath with me for a second and just ask yourself, examine yourself. Do you feel hollow inside because you are using words that sound nice but are not sustaining you inside because you're not being real with yourself? You're not being authentic. You're playing nice at the expense of being real. This is where you stop it. Please stop people pleasing.
