Hey guys. This post is about the 4 traits that are central to any alpha-male.
Dominant
Fun
Leader
Easygoing
Think of any alpha-male that does well with women. Are they missing any of those? Probably not. Those are the keys. Have those and you'll have women. Remember, be the person who's goals naturally come. The great thing about attributes are that anyone can have any of them. And it's pretty easy as well.
Beliefs => Actions => Attributes
Simple stuff. And what are beliefs but a way at looking at reality? All you really need to change your attributes is to change the way you look at things. Decide the attributes you want, sit down and knuckle down on the way the world would look through your eyes with that mind frame. A dominant person doesn't think 'WOOOOO! CONQUERRRRRRR! LSITEN TO ME OR DIEEEEEEEE! I MUST CONTROL EVERYTHINGGGG'. He thinks 'This is what I want to happen, this is the direction I want to go. I'm going there now'. See, one's insecure and stupid and the other is, well, dominant. They are both ways of looking at the world. (On a side-note, a lot of people think dominance is about controlling other people. No, it's about controlling yourself. Being assertive and in control of your reality has nothing to do with other people)
So, lets get to work on those ways of looking at the world. My challenge for this week on my 2009 challenge list is 'Become easy-going', so I'll post on that for now. I'll post on each of the traits as I become them, so none of it is only hypothetical.
Easygoing
(Read 'Don't sweat the small stuff' by the way, great stuff.)
Alright, we'll start off with a story. You probably won't believe this, but whatever haha it happened. Awhile back, I went on a spiritual journey looking for enlightenment (15 years old, not bad
). I spoke to shamans, priests, people, professors, everyone. Then I took all the information, and with a friend I started working on decoding it. We worked non-stop for 2 weeks. I worked really closely with this native-american shaman dude who lived in the area. He told me about his journey and the rituals he did. I didn't feel like dancing on sharp rocks for 3 days non-stop in the blazing sun, or going up into the icy mountains by myself for months, but I DID learn a lot from him. I also got the help of a professor (who happened to be on the council of world religions in Melbourne, who knew?). He told me that he couldn't tell me what enlightenment was, all he told me he would do was give me the first brick on the journey and make sure I didn't get lost. Good enough. The first brick was 'Enlightenment is like the taste of an orange. To anyone who hasn't tasted an orange, you couldn't never properly describe it. It's an experience'. Sweet. So my friend and I knuckled down. One morning, while going through a glass of milk (which, weirdly, is what the Buddha drank before he found enlightenment) I had a breakthrough. 20 minutes later, enlightenment. I ran to my friend, shared the breakthrough with him and we spent the rest of the day running around screaming. Did that for 2 days. At the end of it, we discovered a number of things, those aren't important right now (if you want to talk about it though, drop me a PM) as 'Nothing matters'. Nothing, literally nothing. For a whole day, I couldn't understand words. I couldn't read. I didn't eat. I just there smiling at a wall. (The Buddha lasted longer then a day of not eating, but enlightenment is enlightenment... so whatever haha. I think he went 5 days.) I stopped looking at things as 'Good' or 'Bad'. I stopped classifying anything at all (which is probably why I couldn't read or understand words. or maybe I just didn't care anymore). The feeling of enlightenment is the most amazing thing you'll ever feel. It'll take your breath away, it'll move your soul. It'll give you everything you want and everything you need.
The point of the story though (other then a great story) is that 'Nothing Matters'. There's more to the story, how I got back. It's all very movie-plot like. Great stuff, add me on msn, we'll talk about it hahaha. Anyway, when I got back I started relearning all the crap I unlearned to find enlightenment. Oh well, I can go back whenever I want though so it's ok. But really, at the end of the day, there is no 'Need' no 'Good' no 'Bad'. There are only happenings. I live everyday only because I can, because the only purpose left now is to teach enlightenment and to maximize my potential. It's not a need or a want. It's a happening. If you want to be truly easy-going (seems like a lot to just be easygoing doesn't it haha) or even enlightened (doesn't seem like so much now
) you have to learn to let go. Just, let, go. Of your parents, of your troubles, of your happiness, of your sadness, just let go. There's a specific method me and my friend developed for this, again, MSN, we'll talk about it there. But once you let go, the universe and everything looks so much clearer. And more beautiful. Realize that you don't NEED to live. You don't NEED to eat (because you don't NEED to live). You don't NEED to do anything. If you don't need to do anything, why are you so fucking wound up? Exactly. You aren't, the moment you realize that. Because you realize that any categorization is arbitrary and doesn't exist. Throwing something in the box of 'Good' does nothing because the box doesn't exist. So let go, let things happen. Smile, relax. I hope this was clear, it's always so hard about enlightenment. Ask me anything you want. But since I was so unclear here 'Nothing Matters' is the general point haha. Post or PM me for any questions.
