Publisher's summary

Do you think you’re too nice? Are you always worried about disappointing people? If you are tired of helping others all the time and not having enough energy for yourself, then this audiobook is for you!

After listening to How to Stop Being Too Nice, you will have knowledge of:

  • Identifying if you are being too nice for your health
  • The negative effects of being too nice
  • Why you are compelled to people-please
  • Saying “no” without the guilt
  • Steps on how to stop being too nice to others

There is nice, and there is being too nice. How do you know if you’ve already crossed over to the negative side?

Neurotic people-pleasing habits can damage you. It can hurt you physically, mentally, emotionally, and financially. Because people view you as weak, you become an easy target for users and abusers. That is why it is important to learn how to say “no” from time to time.

How to Stop Being Too Nice offers valuable information about the ways you can stop yourself from wanting to please others at your expense, such as:

  • Trust your inner voice
  • Re-learn to say your opinion
  • Value your well-being over others
  • Learn to cope with disapproval

It also teaches you to effectively resolve conflict. This is huge for people who are too nice because conflict is like their kryptonite. They would bend over backwards to accommodate somebody else just to avoid creating negative emotions.

If you struggle with saying no to others just to win their approval and are tired of being bitter and resentful, then this audiobook is for you.

extremely helpful

At first I was unsure about how this book could help with being “too nice,” but I was pleasantly surprised at the interesting take on it. The exercises were extremely helpful, and I feel so much more confident in being authentic. Great audible, I enjoyed it!

Accommodating

I definitely love this book, it has well-organized details and effective guides for what I need. However, I need some more with the quality of the narration. Overall, it is a good book! What matters more is the content itself.

It feels like it was written for me.

This book feels like it was written for me. Everything that Mike Mitchell writes about felt very relatable for me. I appreciate the balance of theory, stories, and actionable steps and exercises you can do to take action and push your own progress forward.

Love this audio book!

I love this book! He gives practical advice. He gives step by step how to break free from nice person to assertive person. I really enjoyed learning about the reasons why I am too nice and it is not helping my relationships.
