How to Become an Alpha Male

Understanding the Alpha Male Mindset and the Path to Getting There

Imagine you are sitting in a restaurant with friends, enjoying a meal and friendly banter. There is a low hum of ongoing conversations from patrons in the restaurant. As you are laughing at a light joke, you notice a stunning brunette sitting at the bar. She appears confident; not the least bit shy.

She looks around the restaurant while sipping her drink. It crosses your mind to take a chance and speak with her. The thought is quickly shut down, realizing she is probably out of your league. Women like her have a higher standard, and you obviously don?t measure up.

Suddenly, her gaze is turning in your direction. Maybe if you make eye contact and offer a smile, she might reciprocate. So, you smile and hope your eyes meet. But, just before she looks at you, her attention shifts. She looks to the door. As you turn to investigate the source of her curiosity, you notice some of the women in the restaurant are looking to the door, as are a handful of men.

Then you see him. A man approaching the hostess stand. He is well-dressed and groomed, average height and weight, and no better looking than you. But, as he walks to the stand, you can ?feel? his presence. There is no hesitation in his actions and his demeanor tells you he is not someone to tangle with.

He speaks to the hostess, then proceeds to the bar with purposeful steps. Multiple eyes are on him, mostly women, though he takes no notice. He sits at the bar a few chairs from the brunette. He doesn?t appear to have noticed her. But, moments after he sits and orders a drink, she gets up and approaches him.

She stands and waits for him to notice her. When he does, she blushes and drops her eyes timidly, every bit of her previous composure melted away. She introduces herself, sits down and they talk for a bit before moving to a table to enjoy a meal. As they dine, you can see the jealous glances of other women looking at her. And the men? You see some with looks on their faces matching your thoughts; who the hell is this guy, and how can I be like that?

That guy is an Alpha male.

What is an Alpha male?

My guess is you have probably seen men like this. Don?t confuse them with run-of-the-mill business ?suits? running around doing their business. The ?suits? that are Alpha, are usually sitting in the upper reaches of companies, not running around like ants.

It is common upon hearing the term Alpha male, for men to make assumptions. Typically, the thought is that Alpha males are wealthy, deriving command from their money and power. This is a misconception, just like many others. Money doesn?t make men Alpha, nor does authority or a ?bully? mentality. Inferior men often hide behind money or power, letting these devices present a false Alpha persona.

A true Alpha male needs no curtain to hide behind. An Alpha male is self-possessed, confident, no-nonsense and postured. He is a gentleman. He has honor, discipline, and manners. The true way to know if you are dealing with an Alpha male is to look in the eyes. They do not waver, they are not intimidated, and they command with a look.

Most importantly, an Alpha male can be any man. Regular ?joes? from many walks of life are Alphas. They are Alphas because they have the one thing most men lack: unwavering confidence.

What Does It Take to be an Alpha Male?

Yes, you can become an Alpha male. To do so, you need to understand and develop an Alpha mindset. It isn?t an overnight process though. And, above all else, it takes commitment. Not, half-ass commitment; it requires a true commitment to changing what you think you know.

The base foundation of the Alpha male is confidence. So, let?s define confidence first.

Confidence is simply the combination of what you know and what you believe about yourself. If you have knowledge and understanding about something, you believe it, and you own it. You are confident.

For example, think about reading. You can read because you learned how, practiced it and made it an unconscious ability. You believe you can read because you know you can read, and you can succeed in reading because you believe.

Sounds like a riddle doesn?t it? It isn?t. It is simple ?math.? Knowledge and belief work together to create confidence.

So how do you translate that to become an Alpha male?

Building confidence means building knowledge. You must learn, then act on that knowledge. I will lay out the key areas that require learning, understanding and making a part of your daily life. Remember, you are the sum of your parts, as is your confidence.
