Hi guys, I'm looking specifically on any resource to develop a dominant attitude/behaviour or stop submissive body language, towards developing agressiveness, etc.
Long story short, I'm happy and successful (at least from my own standards). I can be a sweet, caring and healthy partner, I have lots of strong relationships with friends, male and female, I enjoy life, nature, making art, counseling kids, and self-care and self-development, and my entrepreneurial voyage is advancing at a good pace. I also have no problem with speaking in public, talking to large crowds or talking/selling stuff to random strangers at fairs.
But, since I have memory, I've always adopted a very submissive behaviour when I'm with a group of people, especially with work teams and friend groups. Although this has allowed me to be a very empathetic counselor/helper/listener, it has also been dragging my development towards the traditional definition of masculinity, and, in a way, I feel that my focus on entrepreneurship, even my artistic skills, might be a way of fantasizing to avoid facing this very problem.
So i want to start making a change in how I interact with people, with the world in general. To acquire the ability to stop being so "nice", so I can decide when to be and when to not be nice.
I know It's not the usual stuff to be asked, that's why I'm starting a new thread.
Pick up artist stuff is not what I look for, because it is usually very superficial, and is directed towards a narrow aspect of life (having sex). Also it feels like faking a personality, and in the end, treats women as objects and ignores relationships with other men, so that is not what I'm looking for. Anyway I'm open to hearing about PUA books if they're good in this aspect.
I'm looking for something that has a global approach (asserting dominance/fear/authority over large groups of people, being a fearful boss, dealing with agressive individuals, developing the traditional view of masculinity, causing a first impression of fear, business interactions from a dominance point of view, making a change in body language and general attitude towards the world). Something that could be read alike to become a riot police officer, a corporate boss, a high school teacher in a marginalized neighbourhood, and a street thug. Something that talks about body language, about alpha individuals in animal packs, etc.
Any suggestions?
Many thanks in advance,
David
