Today I’m going to show you how to become an alpha networker… Well maybe YOU don’t need this info because You’re a Rockstar but, maybe you know someone who does need it, if that’s the case then feel free to just sit back and check off your list of awesomeness… Add badass value – Check! Super focused – Check! One with the universe – Double Check! LOL!
Hangout With Other Alpha Networkers
Alrighty, here we go… I think it’s important to start with a simple fact I mentioned in my last article, which goes like this “90% of this business is mental and 10% of it is execution.” If you can wrap your mind around that one concept and actually practice it then you’re already light years ahead of most people. Yeah I know. The mental hurdles can be the hardest ones to overcome. One of the easiest ways to overcome these mental roadblocks is to find people in your life who are Alphas and start emulating them. Simple right? The really cool thing is that these days it’s really easy to follow and emulate alpha leaders, heck you can find most of them on Facebook! All you really have to remember is that when you get around the right people you’ll naturally start to adopt the qualities they share.
Now you’re probably asking yourself what do these alpha networker qualities and ideals look like? Don’t worry, I gotcha covered. Here’s a huge list of awesome concepts and characteristics you’ll want to practice and mirror in order to become an alpha networker…
Abundance is Key
Numero Uno is having an abundance mentality! This is a CORE concept for success! Alphas never come from a frame of need. When you come from a position of “need” you automatically give your power to someone else. Remember, you don’t need to sponsor people, you don’t need people to join you and if you think you do then you should listen to the story of how Sylvester Stallone got started with the movie Rocky. Coming from an abundance frame of mind will Crush any feelings of need.
Haters Hate Alpha Networkers… Let’em
Don’t be concerned with criticism. What you have to understand is that when you step into your power you will encounter idiots… These people usually don’t have anything better to do but sit in their basement and hate on people who kick major ass. Personally I feel sorry for these people because when I come across these people I don’t see a critic, I see a person shackled by their own lack and negativity. Here’s the good news, if you don’t have haters yet then you need to get more exposure… It’s part of the game so don’t sweat it.
Get in the Drivers Seat Man! (or woman)
Alphas dictate the terms. Now I’m not talking about being rude or mean to other people I’m simply saying that as an alpha networker you need to have posture and you need to be assertive. As an alpha you need to take control, and if people want to interact with you it should be on your terms not theirs.
Alpha Networkers Draw a Line…
Just say NO! Alphas are people who know how to say no. Steve Jobs once said, “People think focus means saying yes to the thing you’ve got to focus on. But that’s not what it means at all. It means saying NO to the hundred other good ideas that there are. You have to pick carefully.” Not only does the ability to say no keep alphas focused but it also helps them protect their most valuable resource… Time. If you want to become an alpha leader you have to get comfortable with the idea of telling people no and if that doesn’t work just tell them, “Not today.”
Tell’em What to Do!
Give instructions. This one’s pretty self-explanatory but just like the team captain or the head coach you have to give people instructions and direction.
This is a Give and Take Deal
Be a servant and a protector to the people who follow you. As an alpha leader one of your main goals should be to uplift and improve the lives of those around you.
Alphas respect themselves and their body.
Risk Doesn’t Exist?
There is no risk just results. This is one of those times where having an alpha mindset of abundance will come in handy. Alphas are always doing things that may seem risky to other people but, when your thoughts come from a place of abundance it’s easy to realize that there really is no such thing as risk… “The truth is that there is no spoon, and once you realize that you’ll find that it’s not the spoon that bends but it is yourself that bends.” –Kid from the Matrix-
Like anyone alphas like to have fun. Just because you’re an alpha networker that doesn’t mean that you have to be a stick in the mud! On the contrary, alphas are confident, outgoing, fun, socially powerful, and secure in themselves.
Double O Alpha
Alphas have a strong physical presence. Alpha males tend to be relaxed, take up space with their shoulders, and they always hold eye contact (think 007). Alpha females sit up straight, hold eye contact and move with poise and purpose.
Speak Up!
Alpha leaders have a strong confident voice and control the conversation. As an alpha you tend to speak with a relaxed authority and you aren’t afraid to interrupt the other person.
O.K. now that we’ve got that out of the way I want to share the ultimate secret to becoming an alpha networker.
You have been paid late before
You have watched the number on the dashboard not match the number in your account. What is different now is simple: it settles on a public contract you can check yourself, not a dashboard I control.
Read the contract →Most participants earn little to nothing. No income is guaranteed. You can verify every payout on the public smart contract.
Value…
Alphas are valuable people and as an alpha networker the more valuable you become to others the more they’ll seek you out and as you increase your value you’ll automatically become more attractive and more magnetic. If you’re not sure how to be valuable to others or if you’re offering the right kind of value just ask yourself this question. How do I PERSONALLY bring value to my leads and prospects? Adding value may seem like a daunting task but just remember that you only have to know a little bit more than the person you’re teaching.

Great insights! I really appreciated the part about having an abundance mindset. It’s something I’ve been working on, and your post gave me a lot to think about.

This is exactly what I needed to hear today. Interesting perspective on handling haters. It’s definitely something I struggle with, but your advice is really helpful. Your posts always seem to come at the right time for me. Keep up the great work!

I can relate to the part about needing to say no. It’s a skill I’m trying to develop, and your post gave me some good tips on how to do it effectively. Awesome post as always! Your energy and enthusiasm are contagious. Keep inspiring us, Dave!
Three posts a day. One email a day.

Get paid 100%, on-chain, the second the sale clears
Most affiliates earn little, and that is disclosed up front. The difference here is not a promise about what you will make. It is that you can verify every payout yourself, on a public contract, in about twelve seconds.

This reads like ten independent traits, but they’re not independent — abundance mindset feeds into comfort ignoring criticism, which feeds into posture and assertiveness, which feeds into the ability to say no. Presented as one flat list instead of a dependency chain, so it’s not obvious where someone actually starts if they have none of them yet.
Tomas, sure, but even your version assumes someone has spare energy to work through a chain of personality traits. Some nights I’ve got forty minutes and none of it left for ‘developing an abundance mindset.’ I need the one thing that helps tonight, not the whole stack.
Tried the ‘get comfortable saying no’ part specifically, four years back. First month, fine. Week six, I said no to a genuinely good opportunity because I’d turned ‘no’ into a reflex instead of a decision. Worth separating ‘protect your time’ from ‘default to no,’ because the post treats them as the same skill and they’re not.
Kelsey’s example is the whole post: ‘be assertive’ turned into ‘refuse things automatically,’ because nobody defined the difference. Say what you mean or don’t say it at all.
Kelsey’s experience matches what I’d expect mechanically — ‘no’ as a default is cheap to execute and easy to mistake for discipline because it feels the same in the moment as a considered refusal. The post’s physical-presence claims, posture, eye contact, have the same issue: correlated with confidence in the literature, sure, but no evidence performing the posture first produces the confidence rather than the reverse.
