CHAPTER

What's Wrong With Being a Nice Guy?

The most fundamental thing wrong being a nice guy is you're not honest, you're not authentic. You don't let the world see who you are, you don't let you see whoYou are. So we become very guarded, non-transparent, hidden, often isolated. We then try to kind of lick our finger and hold it up to the breeze and see which way, you know, the wind's blowing.
