How To Project Alpha Status

10 Lessons In 10 Tweets

[ THREAD ]

Let’s go 👇
1:

Keep Your Movements And Voice Smooth

Stop fidgeting and biting your lip.

Alphas project that they are in control in a chaotic world.

The calm in the center of the storm.

Move and speak smoothly.
2:

Take Up Space

Some people will tell you to encroach on other people’s territory.

I’m not into that creepy zero sum bullshit.

But you should spread out as much as you need to be comfortable and in control.
3:

Stand Proud

Your arms should hang freely at your sides.

No hands in pockets.

No crossing your arms.

No fig leafing over your crotch.

Stop shrugging. Your traps should be relaxed.

If you have postural issues, check out Egoscue. Your posture will shine.
4:

Blink Less

That’s all.
5:

Stop Rushing Around

Can you imagine an alpha like Brad Pitt running down the street because he was late?

Hell no.

Take your time.
6:

Keep Your Face Calm And Composed

Uncomfortable people tend to purse, lick, and bite their lips.

Alphas are never uncomfortable, so they never do these things.

Release the tension.
7:

Speak With Open Hands

Gesturing in general should be fluid, expressive, and open.

Insecure people assume a defensive, closed off posture.

Alphas do the opposite of this.

You are positive and social. Your gestures should reflect that.
8:

Keep Eye Contact At About 70%

Too much eye contact is off putting.

Too little signals insecurity.

Never make people uncomfortable by starting at them like a creep.

But don’t avert your eyes nervously and look down either.

Be cool. Keep eye motion smooth and even.
9:

Don’t Take Yourself Too Seriously

Alphas are not robotic.

They are confident.

And confident people improvise, have fun, and act spontaneously.
10:

Be Relaxed

This is key.

Everything else falls into place.

And this makes sense...

If you have high status, why would you be jittery?

Good news is, you can fake this until you make it.

Whenever you're relaxed, note what your body is doing. Then always act that way.
That's all friends!
