“A nice man is not the same as a good man.
In middle English, the term nice means stupid.
Nice is to people please. Avoid confrontation. Sitting back and following the lead of another. Nice men DO NOT lead and DO NOT speak up, even if there is lawlessness. Nice men seek pleasure at every turn and do what those around them do as to not ruffle any feathers.
A good man leads. He speaks the truth and when needed, he will welcome conflict only to resolve it quickly. He is a protector and provider. He has a purpose and works on it daily.
‘Nice guys finish last.’ That saying rings true in this example.“

=============================
Be an outstanding “Real Man”, by standing outside of the crowds of programmed and/or indoctrinated “nice guys”! See what the “Egyptian Texts of the Bronzebook (the first six books of ‘The Kolbrin Bible’)” have to say on the subject here:
“The Kolbrin Bible”’s “Book of Morals and Precepts - Chapter Six — is titled: “The Real Man”!:
“MPR:6:1 Man is divided not only into nations, peoples, tribes and creeds, but also broadly in twain. There are among all men, all peoples, two kinds of man, the Real Man and the weakling. Those who are neither wholly one nor wholly the other, nevertheless tend towards the nature of one or the other of these.
MPR:6:2 Consider the Real Man, the man who reaches out towards godlikeness. He is the man, in whom God has succeeded. He is God’s elect. He is like unto a spreading tree planted in black soil, which blossoms quietly and doubles the yield of its fruit in the summer. Its fruit is a delight to the mouth and fills the stomach with satisfaction. Beneath the canopy of its foliage, the weary find a pleasant refuge from the heat. In its shade, all men find peace and contentment.
MPR:6:3 The weakling is like a tree, whose leaves wither before the heat of the summer sun. Whose fruit never reaches maturity, for it falls to the ground unripened and is trampled underfoot. Men avoid it, and the axe is laid against its bole…”
“…MPR:6:10 The Real Man stands apart in greatness because of his outstanding qualities, his love of Truth and justice and his hatred of meanness and deceit.
”…MPR:6:11 Though great men make great events, even as great events call for great men, they are not always the children of fortune. Success and acclaim do not always attend their undertakings, but whether they rise or fall is of lesser importance than how they rise and fall. It is not what a man does that makes him great, but what he strives to achieve.
MPR:6:12 The greatest men have no memorial if their endeavours were unpopular or not crowned with success. For every great man with a memorial, there are a thousand unknown and unhonoured.
MPR:6:13 The Real Man remains unperturbed by the whims of life. He does not flinch before misfortune or ease his head when fortune smiles upon him. When misfortune descends upon his head, and his hopes and dreams are shattered, he does not go about lamenting in a loud voice, but quietly continues his daily task.
MPR:6:14 If fortune is gracious towards him, he braces himself and is not overwhelmed; for he knows that often it takes a better man to bear the bounty of fortune than to bear the burden of misfortune…”
“…MPR:6:17 The Real Man stands before adversity as a rock before the raging seas, firm in the midst of turmoil, solid and calm against the fury. His mind forms great designs, and his spirit delights in their execution. His ideas grow up; they are never stillborn, nor do they wither before maturity.
MPR:6:18 The examples of great men shine before him as visions in the night, and their precedents walk with him by day. His high-hearted love of life exalts the spirit within him. He strains at the traces and is impatient for the run.
MPR:6:19 He rises above the rock of oppression and splits it in twain as does the sapling. He is like a great oak, which rises above the shrubbery in the darkness and shakes out its branches in the glory above…”
”…MPR:6:21 He carries himself with the dignity becoming a man; he remains unshaken in calamity. Deceit and hypocrisy are things far beneath him; he has an air of quiet confidence and courage to speak the truth. The thoughts of his heart are the words of his mouth, and whatever he promises is as good as done.
MPR:6:22 The Real Man is he, who serves the purpose of God and carries out His plan. Because of him, all men rejoice for what they are, and the weakling, he carries as his burden.
MPR:6:23 The crown of glorious manliness is on his head;
the mantle of courage is about his shoulders; he stands out from others in the pride and glory of his manhood…”
”…MPR:6:26 Never judge a man according to his estate or circumstances, but accept him as a man according to his state of manliness. He that is manly hold as a man, even though he be your enemy, but he who is less than a man hold accordingly, though he be with you. For were your enemy a lesser man, he might proffer a hypocritical friendship, and thus destroy you by treachery. It is well never to forget that some friends might be enemies, were they better men. Therefore, the measure of a friend’s manliness may also be the gauge of his sincerity…”
“…MPR:6:29 A Real Man is a real man, and no power outside of himself can take away his manliness. He is upright and strong, with a full measure of respect for himself. He is a man of deeds and not an idler. In manner, he is quiet and discreet; he is prudent in all things, and with all these qualities go generosity, good nature and reserve…”
“…MPR:6:31 It is far easier to be a weakling than to be a Real Man. Were the Earth less harsh or the circumstances of life less austere, man would destroy himself before the shrine of the languid goddess. Only Real Men can with safety destroy the tangled forests and wilderness of Earth and make from them gardens, but will those, who inherit the gardens be Real Men? The Law decrees that they must be, or the wilderness will reclaim its own.
MPR:6:32 He who would live in a garden must labour in the sun and subdue the soil. He who is content to live in the wilderness may sleep in the shade, but he is a slave of life.
MPR:6:33 The Real Man stands out above all others; his head is high, his footfall firm. His bearing is dignified, his face calm, his hand steady, his heart tranquil. He sweeps aside all obstacles in his way; he proceeds, though all the dream fiends and powers of darkness seek to bar his way. Where is he, who can gather the Real Men together and make them rulers of all men, that Earth may resound with glory and greatness?…”
my fellow brothers of Mankindness… join me in being outstanding! Be “Real…”, and not a phoeny-phoenician. Be intelligent, and not “nice”…
or, continue to be a low-integrity, “nice”, weakling.
…and continuing, Chapter Seven describes “…The Weakling”:
“MPR:7:1 The burden of the Real Man and the shame of the Earth is the weakling. He frustrates the Plan of God and degrades all men. The weakling is wicked of heart, for wickedness comes easily to men. It is easier to be weak than to be strong, the weakling is one, who takes the easy path.
MPR:7:2 The soul of the wicked man is wrapped in a winding sheet of hate, and corruption eats his spirit. He mocks, for mockery is an overspill of poison brewed in little hearts. The Real Man would rather be hated than mocked, for while men hate, cowards mock.
MPR:7:3 The weakling fawns upon the rich and strong; he oppresses the weak and his joy is the molestation of widows and the unprotected. He cannot show respect for anyone greater than himself, for all men are his superiors. Therefore, he shows a hypocritical respect only when profitable to himself.
MPR:7:4 He cringes before the powerful and wrecks his will upon the helpless. His face is pressed into the dust before the seats of the mighty, but his foot is heavy upon the necks of the lowly. Goodness and duty are beyond his understanding, in as much as the evil in his nature corrupts his spirit and renders him incapable worthy deeds or noble service.
MPR:7:5 The weakling is one, in whom evil destroys the good. In Real Man, goodness vanquishes evil…”
”…MPR:7:10 Mankind is divided in twain; Real Men and weaklings, take your place with one or the other, for they will never be reconciled…”
