Nice guys finish last it means three points.
1. He use the time completely as much as possible output he takes from that precious time.
2. He does the things in his own way and definitely leave a way to follow for others.
3. He never try to come first as his deeds makes him the no 1 automatically so he won't mind of doing things slowly but perfectly.

Nice guys are the ones who finish their work in a perfect way so this perfection requires time so we say nice guy finish last. We can't end here we can also define it as nice people are known for a long time even after their death.

Nice guy probably the one who is not studious even the one who is good in attitude acquainting the positive path. He adopts optimism and tries to accomplish the tasks in a honest way. These nice guys finishes the work last which the result of their quest of perfection. Though the work may be perfect it lags with respect to time. Anyways in the longer run these guys may be benefited and yields to fruitful results. But at the same time it must be remembered that time end tide waits for none. Summing up in simple terms it can be concluded that these nice must perform the work in smarter way rather than in perfect way.

Definition of a Nice guys may not always say about the work they do or how they do. It may also define the nature of the person. It may also say about attitude or behaviour of person towards others. Coming to finishing last it may be like this "the nice person is known for longer time i.e., the people speaks about nice person even after their death ".

First of all, we need to define what a Nice guy here refers to?
Be it a nice guy in studies, nice in nature, nice in thinking. Nice can be termed as Noble, Innovative, Challenging and Eclectic. So if a guy is noble definitely he is not going to find out wrong ways of doing things which now a days most of the people do.
If he is innovative and likes challenges then he will try to do things in a different way. And being Selective and meticulous about his work, definitely will take more time than others but the result will be definitely be Epitome of that field.

It is not necessary at a nice guy always finish last if he does last that is only because he does things with perfection. I am quite against the motion because nice guys does not mean that he does things very slowly with perfection rather it means that he is nice as he is smart, he know the approach to be followed. So I would say it does not matter to finish last or first for a nice guy rather matter is how perfectionaly he does complete for a given duration.

Nice is a nice word. It is a positive sign of a person. A nice guy becomes nice because everybody accepts him/her. This means that the person thinks positive about others. The psychology can react in different ways. That person really can feel bad when somebody hearts because of him/her. So, he/she may not push himself/herself to that extent which leads him/her to the top because people generally depress when they becomes second or so.
In another way, no body can last because life has no finish until death. The person loose one way win in another that may not be visible.
So, we cannot firmly say this statement because there exist both the sides.

No one in the world can be called as a nice guy, because doing good to one may cause bad to another.
Well a descent guy always has a great possibility to be 1. There can be very few instances where he is last. But there can be an apprised reason for being last. Some times it can happen because he strives for perfection or overlooks d syllabus or can look in to matters in a pedantic way, which makes him last.
I conclude agreeing to a statement that A descent guy can finish last. But not A descent guy will finish last.

Nice guys are not looking to be different. They just looking for the perfection
and uniqueness, so it is viewed different to others because many of them are trying the same thing which is previously done.

I really liked the topic but the thing is how do you define a "Nice guy" ? becz I think its quite subjective topic and a person who is nice to one can be bad to another, so there is nothing like a nice guy.
But if I have to consider a decent enough guy then its really not necessary that he will finish last because I have seen many people who finish 1st because as said by some person above 1st impression is the last impression then obviously when a decent guy comes in front of someone then his 1st impression is counted which is very good and then he finishes 1st.
Then there might be some cases where even a decent guy with a good 1st impression finishes last because he spends lots of time in perfection.
