They don't take risks.

They won't start their own company.

They'll think about it for years.

But again, they go along to get along.

They're codependent in the workplace.

They'll help their coworker get their stuff done, but their stuff gets neglected.

Everybody else gets the credit.

So, yeah, they often fail to live up to their full potential.

It's a piece I've struggled with.

I've hit a number of glass ceilings in my life that go, how come this is as far as I seem to be able to go?

But it's because a nice guy's nervous system can't handle all that visibility, all that extra demand that we think is going to be out there, the fear of failing, looking bad, making a mistake.

Because again, we want to look good.

We want everybody to think we're good.

So trying to be good enough really prevents us from truly living up to whatever our potential might be.

Good.

They should.

I've got a good friend like that.

And a couple of years ago, every time we got together, how are you doing?

Oh, life's good.

Life's amazing.
