Being nice is not all that nice

Yes. I am saying this and my parents might just disown me for saying something like this. My parents are one such breed who would ask even their backstabbers, have you had your lunch? If not you may join us and serve them killing their own appetite. And so is my bro and now here i am saying this, "being nice is not all that nice."
Just imagine you trying to help someone in distress and they mug you or cheat you. This has happened to me quite a few times, where i have been betrayed by those whom i had extended my hands to help.
Although such cheating experiences are a few with me, the intellectual theft has been a lot. By intellectual theft, I mean the ones in the corporate world. When you see someone stuck in some process issues, or needs some idea and with common sense, you resolve the issue. However, the same idea is shared with a larger group and that person takes away the credit without even mentioning a word about you.

Isn't this a theft?
Isn't this cheating?
Isn't this backstabbing?
Experiencing this, i would never go forward to help someone personally or professionally now. Not that i am craving for attention or appreciation. But it feels bad so i decide not to be nice when there is need. But is this the solution? I am not sure.

How to resolve this?
How to handle this?
And how to not get affected by this?

So here is an open question for anybody to answer 

A new chapter, a new begining

After a long break from writing my personal blog, I am here again. So what took me so long and what brought me back.

What took so long is the fact that there was nothing path breaking or of such an extreme impact that I could share here. And what brought me here today is a small video of a lady called Beth Dun from Hubspot. Sometimes, all that you need in life is a small very small push. She had beautifully said in a video of hers - 'Write every day'. Its OK even if you are compromising on the quality, but write every day. If not a para, at least a word. This is what will keep you ticking like a clock.

Now that I decided to write everyday, I was initially wondering what to write about. Then decided to write one thing I learned or experienced this day. Suddenly, I realized I have soooo much to share from a single day. So starting this new series of new me with this post -

• Sober is a word you use in relevance to alcohol itself and Somber is the right word usage when you are trying to say someone or something is simple and toned down. 
• I felt a crow in my hand for the first time. A helpless crow, stuck between a branch screaming for help. All that i did was freeing it from the branches, but not sure if the crow was actually freed or killed for being touched by a human.
• A random lady on the street aged around 60 trying to cross the road. She was nothing special, nothing different, but I felt like I saw the same expression of the helpless crow on her face. Felt like offering her a lift, but she seemed like she was waiting for someone. I think i should have atleast asked.
• The last learning of the day, a mother is a mother and rest are just others. I remember my mother saying its ok if you spend on something if that is for your comfort and safety. But others, others are just others, who would choose a thing over a human.

I know there is nothing so amazing in this post. But this is just the beginning. Hopefully
