| 0:00.0 | So stick around to the variance so we can give you the PDF of where you rank as a nice guy because the |
| 0:04.0 | complete opposite of being a nice guy is what? It's mean, unpleasant, asshole, |
| 0:08.8 | pastoring, many words we can use for it, but what does it mean to be a nice guy? |
| 0:13.7 | And why does it suck to be a nice guy? I mean, let's say what's wrong with that, right? I want to be |
| 0:18.0 | a nice guy. You want to be a nice guy. Here's the reality of it. And it's one thing that nice guys |
| 0:22.8 | don't do. And this applies to everything in life. But nice guys, when you stay nice in everything |
| 0:28.2 | you do, you simply miss a lot of opportunities. Whether it's dating, whether it's career, |
| 0:34.1 | whether it's investments, whether it's a lot of things, just because you're worried about something |
| 0:40.0 | you do could potentially offend somebody. So let's look at this pendulum here together. |
| 0:51.2 | So on the far left, on the screen that you're looking at, you see the nice guy. On the far right, |

| 1:13.7 | In their mind, they said what the other person said, but what happens in their mind doesn't |
| 1:17.9 | play out in real life. So timid, it's going to be very hard to win in business and in life. |
| 1:21.6 | If you're going to be timid constantly, the next one is somebody who's very confident. There's |
| 1:24.9 | a lot of confident people who are nice. They're not insecure. They don't second-guess themselves. |
| 1:29.2 | They're just quiet and they're confident, but they don't do one thing. And you're ready? They |
| 1:33.6 | don't ask. They simply don't ask, even though they're confident, even though they may be the sharpest |
| 1:38.6 | cat in the room, even though they may have allowed to offer, but they're just confidently quiet, |
| 1:44.4 | even though they're confidently quiet, they're missing out on a lot of different opportunities. |
