Why Polite People Get Disrespected the Most | Stoic Philosophy
Manage episode 482079565 series 3604780
Are you constantly being polite, accommodating, and agreeable—yet people still walk all over you? In this video, we explore why being “too nice” often leads to being disrespected, ignored, or even manipulated—and how to stop it, the Stoic way.
Politeness is a virtue. But when it's rooted in fear, guilt, or the need for approval, it becomes self-betrayal. From saying sorry too often, to avoiding conflict, to never saying no—we break down 7 hidden habits that make polite people easy targets for the rude and the ruthless.
Backed by powerful personal stories and timeless Stoic philosophy, this video will help you reclaim your voice, set clear boundaries, and stop rewarding bad behavior with silence. You’ll learn how to be kind without being used, respectful without being passive, and polite without losing your self-respect.
If you’ve ever been told you’re “too sensitive,” “too nice,” or “too easygoing,” this message is for you.
