Are you Alpha?
Does it really make one bit of difference? Let's see what this fella has to say about
it.........
Dear Friend ,
As you know, women are attracted to men they can respect. Men worthy of
respect are often called an "alpha male." These men are considered to be socially superior, more desirable,
basically the ones who command the respect of men and women alike.
But, let's face it, some guys just
aren't natural leaders, dominate, or aggressive. In fact, because of their innate personality and disposition some
guys aren't EVER going to be able to fit that description of an "alpha male"... no matter what they try to
do.
What about them? Are they stuck living out their lives as "beta males" who are stepped on,
disrespected, and ignored by women?
No, not at all. In fact, these otherwise "beta males" can actually get
MORE respect than the typical "alpha male." I'll show you why later in this article.
But first, how is an
alpha male defined? Is an alpha male defined by a specific set of behaviors? Or is an alpha male defined
by
the benefits he receives (respect, admiration, attention, etc.)?
I would say that an alpha male
is defined by the benefits - the behaviors are just a means of achieving the benefits. And therein lies the key for
you...
There is more than one way to be the alpha male.
ALPHA APPROACH NUMBER 1
:
Typically people think of the alpha male as the built, popular guy that is always the center of
attention whenever there is a
gathering of people. When a guy disrespects him he is quick to get in his face
- the challenger usually backs down quickly, intimidated by his dominant mannerisms. This guy will be classified as
an alpha male by most peoples definition.
But, let me give you another, slightly different, picture of
what could be an alpha male - you decide if you agree...
ALPHA APPROACH NUMBER 2 :
He's rarely
the center of attention. He's not particularly good-looking or muscular. But, the funny thing is... when he has
something to say people listen. People listen because they respect him. They respect him because he radiates
strength and
positivism. The strength is a result of being so secure and confident with who he is. He's
genuine, real, and authentic.
People can't help but notice and admire that. He has clear boundaries. Guys
don't mess with him because he doesn't mess with them. Women notice that guys don't mess with him, they notice
that when he talks, though it's not often, people listen to what he has to say. Women admire this quiet power and
are drawn to it. No, he's not the type draw crowds with his extroverted antics, and he's not going to go around
challenging all the other guys in
"the pack," he's not that type... and he's perfectly fine with that.
He's not out for other peoples acceptance, he doesn't need
other people's approval because he is
confident with himself.
To me, the second guy is more of an alpha male than the first guy we talked about.
In fact, I think he is 10 TIMES the man that the other guy is. The aggressive behavior the other guy displays could
be considered insecure (which repels women). This type of behavior seems especially insecure in comparison to the
second guy.
You may not be the type to get up in the middle of a crowd and start telling jokes, you may
not be the type who is willing to
fight other guys to communicate your status, but that doesn't mean you
can't get all the respect you deserve.
I pity the guys that try to be an alpha male (using Alpha Approach
Number 1) when it goes against their nature. They end up
coming off as very fake - the respect they are
seeking eludes them... and always will as long as they aren't being themselves.
So, I suppose the
underlying message of this article is that you should always be genuine - our human ability to sense fakeness is
uncanny so don't think that you are fooling anyone by trying to be someone other than yourself.
If you
want to impress women, if you want the respect of women, if you want to attract women to you, then practice being
more like yourself and stop trying to be like something that you aren't.
Be happy and content with who
you are.
It sounds cheesy and trite but I hope that from this article you can see just how important that
message is to your success not only with women, but with making friends, and advancing in your
career.
People seek out others who are authentic as friends, lovers, and partners - they trust these
people more, they admire them, and
they like them.
Why be anything but yourself?
Thoughts, ideas? Anyone? Anyone?

exam ... study it carefully.
