Hello dear Hazim,
In the depths of our hearts, everybody is a nice person - for the true nature of consciousness is innocence ...
With a smile and have a nice day - Tina
Thank you, Hazim, for your nice question.
A nice person is who has tact to love to his neighbours. A good way is to think in other as if he would be yourself and doing with him what one likes he would do with me. This is charity, the secret of a nice person. All ones are called by God to practice charity: I think that the answer to the question about oneself should be personal and sincere.
Dear Hazim
to know if we are nice or not , friends and other people who evaluated our characterizations and giving to all what we are , so if we are evaluated our self then all we say , we are a nice because all people have loving their-self.
regards
I think to be a nicer person than average persons but want to increase the degree of being nice in all the aspects of attitude, personality, character, etc. mentioned in the question.
I have quoted myself: "For me, such person should posses high ethical values, to be honest and loyal, the one who can be trusted always, selfless, empathy, respect different opinions...!" I do consider myself a nice person!
Good luck with your research dear @Hazim.

I am nice to my heart and treat others as that will happen to me, by avoiding wrong and ill feelings.
The perception of what is considered as nice is highly relative and depends a whole lot on the interpretation of those who share the same context as the person in question... can't please everyone so the best things to just be the best version of you while also maintaining healthy social boundaries.
Dear Engineer Hazim Hashim Tahir, MSc. Thanks for your fine invitation … How interesting! Real educators are righteous, truthful and nice, and promote as much as possible all the actions that points in that direction. Educators cannot support falsehood, MASKS, duplicity, POISON, systematic stupidity, ignorance, lack of integrity, LACK OF CHARACTER, etc., etc., etc. , … and so on… Transparence is a lethal weapon against such vicious and mediocre behaviors... In general, Educators are very patient, but also very brave and firm whenever required.
See the real meaning of “nice” according with the Cambridge dictionary: “pleasant, enjoyable, or satisfactory; kind, friendly, or polite”.
I hope this may help you in a world and region full of conflicts and problems …

Dear Dr. Hazim,
The following quote is noteworthy for me as a realistic and not fake idealistic person:
"A nice person is a 'yes' person, whereas a good person is a person who accepts their responsibility in things and moves forward and tries to constantly evolve and isn't afraid to say no or challenge someone or be honest or truthful." Miranda Kerr.
Best regards
SM Najim
I am nice because I am:
honest
helping
Humble
Hardwarking
Trustworthy
Truthful
Dear Hazim Hashim Tahir,
You can not be good for everyone.
All good, but in different ways. And because not everyone is a good person close to us.
And we are not close to each.
Regards, Shafagat
Dear Hazim, exactly as said Shafagat. The proof is what we all share in our Custom:
when a person start talking about himself in a seat , council and citing his goodness, may be someone agree, but the most leaned their heads with a ridiculous smile.
I do not think I am capable of to describe myself that I am happy, happiness is a psychological state controlled by a group of Mrs. Mubarak security factors and the economic situation.
Yes, I am sincere, honest and help others. If I say something about myself it appears 'self boast'. My friends, colleagues, my superiors and others should say this then it looks fine.
One needs to be nice to everyone, not just to friends and "nice" people. I am always trying to remember that when confronted with oddities. There is a reason why people sometimes behave strange.
I am in nice in :Attitude, personality, character, morals, ethics, manners, behavior, helping and treating others, etc etc ....? Hence I can say that I am nice person.
Dear Mr Tahir ,
Am I nice - ask my Mom and my family they will tell - NOOOOOO
Do I describe myself nice - YES ...
Character /morals/ethics - I am highly disciplined ...
manners/behavior - Not so much
helping & treating others - Certainly yes , at times I go out of my way . So my friend says i am a push-over :(
In total , I am tolerable only to my friends ...
1.empathy, self-actualization(talking for problems not for people-Maslow theory), offering friendship and effective solutions, pay attention time and careful hearing, ethics and sense of humour,2. right attitudes,responsability,to be patient, amortization and silence during aggressive talkative behaviours...3. careful critics but not criticism are some starting points to be nice...

"4 Ways to Be Kind When You Don’t Feel Like It
So how can we try to be kinder to people, especially when we don’t feel like it?
1. Try to notice when you feel the need to be unkind to someone.
2. Ask yourself why you are feeling an urge to be unkind.
3. If you want to be unkind because you’ve been hurt or you’re feeling insecure, then acknowledge the part of you that feels hurt.
4. If you want to be unkind because the other person has said something horrible to you."....
Please,see the link ....

A person is nice if his words and actions do not harm any one,a person is nice that helps others and helps himself,a person is nice if he is student or a teacher or sponsor for both,a person is nice if his presence is reason for smile people in sorrows,a person is nice if he earns legally and spents legally,a person is nice if he is good with his family,parents,relatives and with whole society,a person is nice if he is praised behind himself...... ....,in my opinion a good person should have at least above qualities,how I m actually the best answer will come from the people around me,they are well judges because they observed me daily,otherwise most of people are self praised,

Dear Friends,
Almost every person thinks of himself/herself is a nice person. But what matters most is how rest of the world (who knows him, such as extended family, friends and collogues) thinks about him/her. Unfortunately, in certain circumstances doing right thing makes others perceive him/her to be arrogant or disrespectful (i.e. not nice).
For example, telling white lies or subtle flattery make anyone perceived to be nice or good. But is it a nice thing to do? On the other hand telling inconvenient truths might be perceived as not nice. I have been struggling for years to expose an error at the root of software engineering for years.
My struggles to present counter-evidence made me extremely unpopular (in fact most disliked person in the software community). There is no polite or humble way to tell certain truths, which contradict deeply entrenched paradoxical paradigm. Many colleagues have been trying to avoid me for doing things, which I feel are my moral and ethical obligation as a researcher. On the other hand, I feel, it is breach of moral and ethical obligation on their part to continue promoting their theories (or concepts) by deliberately ignoring or hiding counter-evidence (bring to their notice).
Let me play devil’s advocate: Everyday we face many moral and ethical dilemmas. For example, one of my friends brought to my notice this interesting video a day ago: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ApaMIJiOt-c. If it is right, as I global citizen, what is my obligation to be a nice or good person? Is it nice to ignore it (i.e. pretend I never heard or know about it)? Is it an obligation of a nice/good person to investigate the Truth for doing right thing? Trying to do right thing makes one very unpopular, while doing wrong thing preserves hard earned reputation as a good/nice person.

It is easy to be nice, even to an enemy - from lack of character.
---- Dag Hammarskjold
If you treat other human beings with respect, with dignity and fealty, irrespective of their tribe, race, gender etc, then you definitely fit the bill. You're a nice guy.
yes I think so. I believe that many persons have positive and negative aspect.
personally I think I'm so kind and hard working.
Cheers.
No, I dont think so.....creative thinkers can not be in social category of "Nice", as they follow logic & critical thinking and cause & effect mindsets, with out any favour or biases or personal wish & will etc, so they might have some set of above mention traits but not in harmony & balanced all the time due to creative stress, chaos and uncontrollable habit of complex over thinking. In general dealing and by patience level they are harmless but hard to be "Nice & Happy" by inner mind atmosphere and feel comfortable in a specific surrounding environment. And perhaps have less Reward Neural Circuits give them less opportunity to be much "Nice" as compare with those society fellows which are not dealing with creative thinking works.
Hope someday development in brain sciences will find the solution for such problems
Regards,
One can be either naturally nice in various meanings of this word, or nice due to education coming from parents, schools, neighbors, culture, religion, and life experiences.
I used to be very nice to aged people and kids, people in sorrow, pain, and various life tragedies.
I think, whatever talent one has - it comes from God, while professionalism and experience come through years of dedication and working hard. The former and the latter deserve respect and, in one or another degree, can be expected from a stranger or any people you meet around – so that based on this conscience, I am trying to be nice and respectful to everybody.
Dear Colleagues,
Good Day,
Better to just be real. Show up and do your job and be a nice person.
---- Elisabeth Rohm
Well yes, am rather nice, since I am kind, family loving, unselfish and respectful to everybody...I believe that truly wise, confident and smart people should be nice and good, having a noble character and a rich education and life experience....and yes, I will always despise and avoid arrogant and selfish people, no matter how professionally and academically successful they may be...
Yes I would say
Definitely I am good in my behavior, manners, characters, attitude..........and try to help others by the means possible for me.
But...I won't continue to be nice for persons those who are not nice.
I always give them some grace/ chances but when things go beyond certain limit
I just don't keep any interaction with them.
I am a strong believer that.... as you sow so shall you reap
If a person is not nice...he doesn't deserve nice treatment
we should not encourage people who act smart/ cunning
we should tell them and remind them again again that you are not nice and be nice
if they follow well and good
if they don't...just say good bye.
With due respect,
Dear Asoori,if someone behaves negatively,its BEST reaction should be positive always ,it will nullify his/her negativity ,because people behaves negatively due to their frustration,as they are unsatisfied from their surroundings or society,our negative behavior strengthens his/her frustration,positive behavior is like rose ,once presented its fragrance spreads around and never neglected and ignored.my enemies are my friends now just because i remain positive when they hearted me .
My prayers and good wishes are always with YOU Dear Asoori latha.

It's nice to just embrace the natural beauty within you.

I will try to consider even the people against me...so i am sure i am doing great and hardly give time to prove myself.
Well Mr Tahir , I guess I have not got hard-coded "beauty" concept ... I guess that is why I am confident of what I have - Nothing !!!
Too nice to be true...To Maslow, "Creativity, love, altruism, mysticism are the crowning achievements of a human being. Frustration in metaneeds is the measure of the enlightened society. Less than 1% of the adult population is able to achieve self-actualization in the conditions of low social synergy. If you plan on being anything less than you are capable of being, you will probably be unhappy all the days of your life. The fact is that people are good.Give them affection and security, and they will give affection and be secure in their feelings and their behavior. I'm anti-doctrinaire.I'm against anything that closes doors and cuts off possibilities. There are relations between a nice man and a nice society. They are in need of each other"

I consider myself a good person, although as a human I have had errors and successes, and in the balance of my life I have pondered more my successes and the reconsideration of my mistakes by sublimating them, correcting them or avoiding them in the future. I can also add that:
Greetings to all
Jose Luis
Me considero buena persona, aunque como humano he tenido errores y aciertos, y en el balance de mi vida he ponderado más mis aciertos y la reconsideración de mis errores sublimándolos, corrigiéndolos o evitándolos en el futuro. Puedo agregar además que:
Por todo ello, aunque parezca presuntuoso, me considero buena persona, aunque también sé que tengo mucho por mejorar para que al final de mi vida, que espero no sea pronto, tenga la certeza de haber cumplido y haber tenido experiencia y vivencias tan fabulosas, que desearía "renacer" y volver a vivir en forma similar.
Saludos a todos

Dear Colleagues,
Good Day,
Please, Look at how "Vincent Cassel" is seeing people:
"People pretend to be nice; people pretend to be smooth and polite and everything, but this is only an appearance because the way we're built as human beings is only in paradox and contradictions."
I feel like the so-called bad guys are never totally bad. I guess it's the closest thing I can do to reality: people act nice but nobody really is nice. We all have to balance that with something dark. How we balance it is what makes something interesting...

Prophet Mohammed gave a description of the believer: "the believer is pliable if he sold and pliable if he bought". I think this description describes the nice person.

We must learn and then teach our children that niceness does not equal goodness. Niceness is a decision, a strategy of social interaction; it is not a character trait. People seeking to control others almost always present the image of a nice person in the beginning.

“If they respect you, respect them. If they disrespect you, still respect them. Do not allow the actions of others to decrease your good manners, because you represent yourself, not others.”
~MOHAMMAD ZEYARA
Other have their own rights to evaluate; but our conscious knows who we are.
"Make the most of yourself....for that is all there is of you." --Ralph Waldo Emerson
We've all made mistakes throughout our lives that haven't exactly put us in the best light--like bullying someone in school or telling what seemed like a little white lie. Chances are, however, you probably felt a little guilt and grew because of the situation.
I'm an average guy trying to become better in both my work and home life. I'll never be perfect, but it doesn't mean I won't try.
If you want to continue to grow as a person, here are 15 ways to make the most of yourself.
1. Compliment Yourself
Every morning before you go on with your daily routine, take a couple of minutes to give yourself a compliment. Whether you compliment your outfit, haircut, or how you recently completed a task using your unique skill sets, giving yourself a little emotional boost will make you happy. And, when you're happy with yourself, that emotion can be contagious to those around you. Inspirational speaker Tony Robbins has a mantra he says aloud to himself most days to put him in a peak performance state.
2. Don't Make Excuses
Blaming your spouse, boss, or clients is fruitless and won't get you very far. Instead of pointing fingers and making excuses about why you aren't happy or successful in your personal or professional life, own your mistakes and learn from them. When you do this, you will become a better person. When Ipersonally started living up to my mistakes and downfalls, my life turned itself around. I became happier and healthier, and my relationship with my wife improved. We are happier than ever.
3. Let Go of Anger
Letting go of anger is easier said than done. While anger is a perfectly normal emotion, you can't let it fester. When this happens, you may make unwise decisions, and more important, it may affect your health.Research suggests pent up anger can cause digestive problems, difficulty sleeping, and even heart disease.
To help you let go of anger, Roya R. Rad, MA, PsyD, suggests you write your feelings down, pray or meditate, or begin to manage your thoughts.
4. Practice Forgiveness
Joyce Marter, LCPC, suggests you forgive and let go of resentment. She notes, "If for no other reason than for yourself, forgive to untether yourself from the negative experiences of the past. Take time to meditate, and give thanks for the wisdom and knowledge gained from your suffering. Practice the mantra, 'I forgive you and I release you.'"
5. Be Honest and Direct
How would you feel if a loved one or business partner lied to you? Chances are you would see that as a violation of your trust. If you want to be a better person in either your personal or professional life, you should always tell the truth and state as clearly as possible what you are trying to convey. Learn to articulate your thoughts, feelings, and ideas in an open and honest manner.
6. Be Helpful
Whether giving up your seat to an elderly person on the subway, assisting a co-worker on a project, or carrying in the groceries when your spouse comes back from the store, being helpful is one of the easiest and most effective ways to practice becoming a better person. I find that the more I help others, the better I feel about myself and everyone around me.
7. Listen to Others
As Jeet Banerjee notes on Lifehack, "listening to people and giving everyone a voice is one of the greatest things you can do." He adds that he "got to meet some of the most amazing people, close some of the biggest deals, and develop connections that will last me a lifetime all because I took time to listen to people. Being a good listener can change your life in a positive manner."
8. Act Locally
It may not seem like a big deal, but supporting a local cause, donating clothes, or buying from local farmers' markets or businesses are simple ways you can help your specific region. You may not be able to save the world, but you very well could make a difference in your neck of the woods. Get to know and care about your community.
9. Always Be Polite
How much effort does it take to say, "Thank you," or to hold the elevator door open for someone? Not much at all. However, these acts of kindness can make someone's day. I decided a few years ago that it doesn't matter if someone is ultra rude, condescending, or worse. The way someone else behaves is not going to determine my behavior.
10. Be Yourself
Tiffany Mason has five excellent reasons on Lifehack why you should be yourself. These include being able to align yourself with your values and beliefs, establish your identity, build courage, create boundaries, and find focus and direction.
11. Be Open to Change
Whether trying a new restaurant, traveling to an unknown part of the world, or doing something that has always scared you, you should always be open to change. This allows you to grow because you experience something new. It helps you be high functioning and self-confident if you are not wary of change.
12. Be Respectful
How would you feel if you had just cleaned your home and someone came in and tracked mud everywhere? You'd probably be a little ticked that they hadn't taken off their shoes. Take this mentality and apply it to everyday life. For example, don't toss your trash or cigarette butts on the floor of public restrooms or sidewalks just because someone else will clean it up. Be respectful of others' time, thoughts, ideas, lifestyles, feelings, work, and everything else. You don't have to agree with any of it, but people have a right to their opinions and yours is not necessarily correct.
13. Don't Show Up Empty-handed
Going to a party this weekend at your friend's apartment? Make sure you don't arrive empty-handed. Even if you've been assured that there will be plenty of food and drink, bring along a little something to show you appreciate being invited.
14. Educate Yourself
If you don't understand why one country is invading another, take the time to educate yourself on the current event. Ask a person intimately connected with the event for his or her thoughts. Remember, we're all interconnected, and being aware of different cultures, different people, and what their lives are like can make you a more well-rounded individual. This will also help you understand points of view different from your own.
15. Surprise People
How good does it feel to make someone smile? It feels pretty good, right? Surprise your loved ones or co-workers now and then, with a gift, a night out on the town, or by offering help when you know they could use it.
Becoming a better person doesn't happen overnight, but it is possible. Believe in yourself and know that it is possible!

In what capacity are you looking at this? Are you trying to manufacture nice people?!
I assure you, nobody will say I am a bad person. It is because we assume "I" am good in all measures that we argue, debate or quarrel to hold on our grounds. Being nice or good or positive for the sake of my argument, is a character we value but this value is relative in a spherical way and with all fuzzy possible values (zero ( = neutral, neither positive nor negative), negative(large or small), positive(large or small)). Starting from the center of the sphere, extending outwards in all directions, what is being seen positive (or nice) by one is actually negative or quasi positive or more positive, etc by another and what one says positive with a certain value may be more positive with a higher value or with a lower value or may be seen as negative with varying values or even neutral by others. Therefore the answer is so relative, it depends on where the person who asks and where the person being asked are. When a communist person asks some one, if he/she is a nice person politically, socially and economically, then this question has many answers with many values of intensity of goodness or niceness. If the person is a capitalist person, or a devoted socialist, or a socialist but a reactionary, or if the person is in a capitalist system but distastes any of the socio economic systems that exist, then we see the multitude meanings of goodness and their varying values of goodness.
But one thing is clear, the majority of the human society is culturally and humanly positive and nice to all people around, the very reason we live together almost in harmony. Singularities (erratic and bad points) of dynamical systems are not so many but few, but regular points (smooth and nice points) are the most majority for otherwise the system will never exist and that is what the global society is.
"Kindness is the language which the deaf can hear and the blind can see."

The Actual Differences Between Being Nice And Being Fake

To success at work, you should be both nice and serious to your subordinates.
I don't know I am nice or nor! But I am sure that my family (my wife and son nd my parents and of course my mother in law :-)) and my best and closest friends think I am nice. And because of that - I'm so proud!
Best regards,

I am using polish language and having attractive personality and use smooth language with my closest persons, then I am nice person.
Nobody will say that he is not nice. So I try to be honest with my work, help my student to develop their knowledge domain and try to remain humble. Now you judge me, ball lies in your court.

I don't know I am nice or not. But I don't do others what I don't want them to do to me. I just believe in Live Let Live and make others to live.
We can never tell a lie to ourselves. When we introspect, we evaluate our deeds which may be either judged as good or bad. It is linked to morality and ethical values. Actions rooted in these may be taken as good and if we are content in practicing them while dealing with others, we may call it niceity.
In pursuit of searching the meaning of life we may realize how important it is to have check on behaviour and refine our way of living the life.
everything in this world is relative. Your habit and actions looks nice in the eye of one person or completely opposite in another eyes. Different cultures have different definitions of nice or bad person. There may be some common facts but again it relativity of the world everywhere.
