1. Smarts
2. Social Skills
3. Fitness
4. Fashion

These are the skills you should be working on, in order, to become a truly interesting and alpha person. Nobody cares about your fit if you can't hold a conversation.

Pretty good, I'd put social skills over smarts though.

You can fake being smart, but you can't fake charisma.

In theory, sure, something along those lines - but this is a fashion board, not a self-help board.

Good thing OP is here to tell us what to do with our lives in his free time, instead of worrying about himself.

Thanks for liberating the fashion board on this anonymous anime website friend! :)

It's reasonable to question the validity of the "alpha male" in today's society, especially the specific meaning or associated traits, but to boldly deny the existence of an "alpha male" is irrational.

This video gives an interesting look into what defines an alpha male - and most importantly how other men react to the "dominant alpha":

To claim yourself as an alpha is useless, because it would depend on the group of people you are surrounded with. Believing that being "alpha" is a requirement for success is a common misconception, and not being "alpha" is also not a bad thing.

College edition:

8 sets of Social (add at least 8 more people into your social web every 3-4 months/ make 8 more good friends)
4 Sets of Smarts (at least 4 classes a semester)
2 Sets of Fitness (work out at least 2 times a week)
and 1 Set of Fashion (buy something new fashion wise every 1-2 weeks)

Work Part time for Social, Smarts, and money gains

Get it done fitness.

no sir I am afraid that you are stupid. you see, critical thinking has nothing to do with knowledge, which is implied in smarts. Social skills implies an ability to get along with people; charisma is a zest for success and a caring for others. Style, /fa/ of all places should know, is different from fashion. Style is all about solidifying someone else's impression of you in a sense much larger than fashion, which is usually a style of clothing that goes in an out of style blah blah bah...
and u dont need to be fit.

get it into a daily routine as well
Daily:
1 set of social x talk to/ have a conversation with 8 new people
1 set of smarts x go to class
1 set of fitness x hit cardio, pushups, situps, whatever at least once a day
1 set of fashion x read up on the latest trends (that aren't autistic)

it was basically a rhetorical question. nothing can go wrong.

because you either find out she likes you, or you find out she doesn't like you.

both of those are better than wondering.

what is this /b/?
although
1. social skills
2. smarts
3. fitness

i believe social skills are absolutely crucial, but smarts come very close to it. fitness is essential for myself and i like fashion but its a hobby for me

Around less intelligent people, sure.
Using bigger words or talking about "intellectual" subjects just makes you
seem like a tool if you don't actually understand what you are talking about.

"Smarts" (Intelligence?) =/= Knowledge

You always learn more, but intelligence is pretty fixed after childhood.

Social Skills on the other hand, can be learned, and one can certainly become more
charismatic. Try an improv class for starters.

If you want to impress people you meet by "dressing better" go to r/MFA. Most people you meet,
girls included, know nothing, and probably care nothing, about your sick Rick and Julius fit, that cool tech jacket, or your
perfectly rolled unfused collar.

This whole thread is on the wrong board. This board is for people who are interested in fashion
as a hobby, for it's own sake, not to impress others or get girls as your use of "Alpha" suggests.

Finally, this whole "alpha" thing is just silly. We are not tribal in social structure, our patterns
of behavior may derive form those ancient behaviors in some fashion, but you don't need to be the
"top dog" to get people to like you. Be confident, have things you are interested in, and go do stuff with people, that's really it.

fashion...lol...if you're a guy, a chick is not going to care about what your fashion is.

Replace "Style" with "fashion" and you're golden.
