If you're being nice just for the sake of pleasing people around you, or maybe, because you don't want them to get hurt because of you even if they wronged you or misused you, then yes, being nice all the time will get you nowhere. I learned it after a long time. Being nice in general is totally fine. But, once you realize your value, it's hard being nice all the time. Sometimes, you have to say 'no' to people because you want to utilize your time or do something your way or maybe the person is all holding you back or whatever the reason may be.
