Last week on the podcast I laid the foundation for what future-focused thinking is and how it will elevate you into your Alpha state. Well, now it’s time to go a little bit deeper. Like every aspect of my work, confidence plays a huge role in future-focused thinking. A lot of people, they need to see physical tangible evidence for something before they can bring themselves to believe it. While that belief may seem logical, this is your Beta condition [...]
Knowing where you want to go in life is insanely important for developing yourself as you move towards cognitive mastery. The Beta condition lives in the past. We know this. The Beta Male is all caught up in why he is where he is right now and can hypothesize endlessly about what got him there. The Alpha Male, on the other hand, thinks a little differently. This is a big one, guys. What I have for you today is the [...]
There is a common misunderstanding about the difference between therapy and coaching. While both are collaborative processes to work on bettering yourself, they are used for remarkably different purposes. As a coach myself (with three coaches of my own), I know how powerful coaching can be for everybody in all parts of life. Through coaching, you can learn how to move beyond wellness and start to be the person that you have always wanted to be in a way that [...]
What I’ve got for you this week is huge, guys. I mean it. I’m so hyped to talk about this because it affects so many people and it is incredibly misunderstood as a part of life that we just have to deal with. But it’s not – at least not when you have elevated your Alpha state. Being scared of rejection falls into the same category as a fear of failure, approach anxiety, and social anxiety, but I think it’s [...]
We’re into the third week of our series on exploring emotions and this week is one that a lot of people believe they can do absolutely nothing about. We’re talking about fear. Fear is a funny one because it is among the first things we feel as kids. When I was a child, I loved to climb up whatever I could find. In that scenario, being scared kept me from doing some serious damage. If I didn’t feel fear, I’d [...]
Something I hear a lot is that Alpha Males are innately confident, and most people go so far as to say that what they perceive to be an Alpha Male is straight up arrogant. Well, I’m here to tell you that both of these thoughts (and they are just thoughts) are completely erroneous. Nobody is innately confident, and it is impossible for a 21st-century Alpha who possesses a properly managed mind to be arrogant. As you will know by now, [...]
This week, and for the next few episodes, we’re going to be discussing emotions. Now, we’ve talked about emotions before, but this time we’re going to get specific. We’re starting off with unconditional love. This is really the cornerstone of the Alpha state – feeling unconditional love for others, but also for yourself. It is a fact that other people do not feel our emotions and we don’t feel the emotions of other people. This is never more misunderstood than [...]
What we’re discussing on today’s podcast, to be honest, is a bit of a thought-terminating cliché – actions speak louder than words. This is a platitude that we hear often and even say ourselves, but usually about other people. It’s a standard we hold others to, but only he who has truly elevated his Alpha really understands what it means to say it of himself. I don’t usually like little kitschy phrases like this, but this one is genuinely a [...]
I’ve talked previously on the show about separating thought from circumstance and how we’ve been pretty much raised to believe that the thoughts we have amount to facts. Well, today we’re going to dive a little deeper and really practice the idea of questioning your thoughts in a way that allows you to see exactly what you’re making your circumstances mean. The point of today’s podcast is to ask yourself, “So what?” When you start to learn how to separate [...]
We’re wrapping up our series of comparisons this week with a big one – manuals versus requests. We’ve covered manuals before, but this episode is going deep into how the Beta condition focuses on manuals, versus the Alpha state, which communicates in the form of requests. This stuff is perfect for relationships of any kind, whether it’s work, romantic, friends, family - truly anything. Out of all aspects of the human experience, relationships are the most misunderstood. As a life [...]
