How To Be An Alpha Male: David Deida.

alpha male david deida I’m running with a bit of a David Deida theme this week….

Since his work has been such an inspiration, and great teaching.

I’ve noticed something in myself that I’ve noticed within many men throughout this community -

The pursuing of this trait we call alpha male, or masculine.

In the words of David Deida, the masculine is deep consciousness, and its ability to penetrate.

And let’s face it: as men, we seek to be Alpha Males so that we can penetrate more.

But in being an Alpha Male, or becoming an Alpha, we must also learn to be more penetrative in the way in which we conduct our daily living:

- putting forth our standards into the world without fear of judgment
- diving into the world fully, rather than just dipping in our toe,
- being unapologetic in the way we desire, as well as what we desire.

But in attempting to be more masculine, we hide the part we perceive as being not masculine, and put up this barrier to hide that from the world.

In doing this, there is also a possibility that we attempt to “get a reaction” in order to cover up this inadequacy of ours.

The problem is, though, in order to be successful in our penetration of the world, the very barriers we put up to protect ourselves, are the very barriers the prevent us from penetrating.

The most masculine men I’ve ever met were never afraid of being vulnerable.

In fact, it was their ability to remain immovable within their vulnerability that actually attracted women to these men.

The removal of all barriers is exactly what allowed them to move through the world unencumbered.

So the next time you put a barrier up between you and the world in order to cover up an inadequacy, ask yourself:

“How easily you’ll be able to move through this world with that heavy suit of armour?”

It will be the lack of barrier that is exactly what will fuel your ability to penetrate the world, women, and your challenges with ease.
