10 Signs You’re a Sigma Male - YouTube

hey everyone and welcome to top think today  we're going to learn about 10 signs you are  

a sigma male now let's begin number one rejecting  expectations everyone's heard of alpha males and  

beta males alphas stand at the top of our social  hierarchy they lead with decisive voices confident  

attitudes and strong personas betas on the other  hand are followers they sink to the bottom of our  

social hierarchy they're submissive insecure  and weak willed they settle for less and run  

away from conflict but alphas and betas aren't  the only kinds of male personalities out there  

the sigma male is the rarest of the three male  archetypes unlike an alpha or a beta a sigma male  

doesn't care about social standings or hierarchies  they ignore social norms trends and expectations  

to a sigma male there's no correct way to dress  speak or act society has a rigid list of male  

expectations created by alphas and idealized by  betas but sigma males discover their own path they  

create their own definition of what's attractive  cool and confident just take clothing for example  

alpha males are trendsetters they confidently push  the boundaries of what's attractive and what's not  

beta males copy the styles created by the alphas  they wear expensive clothes and famous brands  

they want to gain respect or bolster their  reputation but their lack of confidence  

shows right through but sigma males don't  create fads or follow them you'll never see  

them wearing something popular or trendy because  sigma males don't care what society likes or  

dislikes so if you march to the beat  of your own drum if you reject social  

trends and expectations then you may be  the rarest male archetype the sigma male  

number two material insignificance sigma  males are minimalistic they don't prioritize  

the same luxuries as other men because they  don't need material things to complete them  

they don't rely on luxuries to create or enhance  their personality just think about fancy cars for  

seconds the beta male may spend tens even hundreds  of thousands of dollars on a sports car they think  

an expensive car will make them more desirable  more attractive more confident but it won't  

that's why a sigma male drives whatever they  want they're just as confident driving a rundown  

wagon as they are a bright red ferrari they know  material goods are not a substitute for self-worth  

so instead of chasing luxuries a sigma male  focuses on immaterial accomplishments if  

you're a sigma male you dedicate your life to  the pursuit of your passions you seek knowledge  

skill and wisdom day after day your life is not  driven by what you have it's driven by what you  

can do number three self-management are you  self-employed do you resist people in power  

sigma males like alpha males struggle with  authority they make terrible followers and  

worker bees unlike betas who do as they're told  sigma males break the rules on a regular basis  

in the workplace sigma males feel stuck like  they're sitting in stop traffic they don't want  

anything or anyone slowing them down they want  to solve problems their own way they want space  

and flexibility to rethink reinvent and reshape  that's why sigma males work best on their own  

they're dedicated self-starters they flourish when  they have complete control many sigma males are  

business owners risk takers and creative thinkers  they confidently tackle high stakes positions  

and difficult challenges but if someone tries to  control them the sigma mail will not go down easy  

number four mysterious privacy sigma males  keep their passions close to their chest  

they're called private selfish and secretive  by others but here's the real truth sigma males  

do shield their passions and interests it's  not because they have something to hide it's  

because they don't feel the need to share a sigma  mail does not advertise their accomplishments  

many people talk about their passions to earn the  approval of others they tell people about their  

successes because telling someone gives them a  little ego boost but sigma males don't want or  

need outside approval they keep their passions to  themselves because telling themselves is more than  

enough this can make sigma's very difficult  to understand it takes a long time to get to  

know them friends may feel like they're always  unwrapping new layers of this complex archetype  

even though it takes a long time sigma males  are the most rewarding people to connect with  

and befriend underneath that quiet exterior is  a confident passion unlike any other number five  

humble leadership in their careers and  their lives sigma males are lone wolves  

but in the right circumstances they can  be inspiring leaders too alpha males use  

power and aggression to lead but sigma males lead  by example they pour their hearts into their work  

and their dedication inspires others to follow  in their footsteps they rarely intimidate or  

dominate others and they rarely want to sigma  males generate as much power and respect as an  

alpha without lording over anyone sigma males  don't care about titles and standings they don't  

use their position or paycheck to get their way  instead they create the best product that they can  

they learn improve and streamline because they  want to make themselves proud they have a humble  

yet disciplined mindset but that mindset is  why sigma males become such respected leaders  

number six independent pursuits have you ever  turned down a leadership position sigmas make  

great leaders but they don't always enjoy  leadership positions many sigma males have  

been pursued they're chased and revered for their  innovative ambitions and relentless drive but they  

prefer to make it on their own they're rarely  tempted by the perks of any leadership position  

they don't find meaning in titles paychecks and  authority now many sigmas think they'll get more  

done on their own and they're usually right so  they turn down leadership positions and pursue  

success independently yeah they may make less  money they may have less job stability they may  

not know what their future holds but they have  a chance to pursue their passions to the fullest  

and for a sigma nothing is more important number  seven the sigma lifestyle no one lives their  

lives quite like a sigma male they're picky about  their lifestyles their routines and their habits  

and there's no one who can change the way  they live for a sigma male nothing is worse  

than a controlling person they can't stand it  when someone tries to change their lifestyle  

sigma males do what they want when they want  anyone who tries to impose expectations onto a  

sigma male may get kicked to the curb now this may  sound stubborn or selfish and in some ways it is  

but deep down sigmas value themselves for who  they are they're willing to change they're  

open to new perspectives but they only make  changes if they genuinely want to make changes  

sigma males don't cater to the people around them  they don't transform their lifestyles to make  

others feel better they're unflinchingly true to  themselves and that's one of their best qualities  

number eight confident introversion most alpha  males are commanding extroverts they use their  

social aptitude to gain control over the world  around them but sigma males are rarely extroverted  

instead they're independent and solitary  introverts they don't like to be the center  

of attention they rarely talk to strangers and  they spend most of their time alone on the outside  

a sigma male looks like any other shy introvert  that's why sigmas go unnoticed sigmas have the  

confidence and self-security of an alpha but  they keep to themselves they don't leave lasting  

impressions on everyone in the room they listen  far more than they talk and they approach social  

interactions with modesty and control but that  muted exterior hides a rich interior world their  

intrinsic confidence can surpass even the most  powerful alphas they live and lead from the inside  

out so don't be fooled by their quiet exterior a  sigma male may seem shy but they're far from it  

number nine room to breathe sigma males require  a lot of personal space they need plenty of  

flexibility to do their own thing to chase new  ventures to travel and explore they need to  

satisfy their internal drive to learn and achieve  and they don't want anyone to hold them back  

so if you're a sigma male you may make radical  changes in your life you may disappear for  

days on end you may become so absorbed in your  passions you forget about the rest of the world  

your friends and family may worry about you they  may question your decisions but your pursuit of  

innovation is one of the strongest parts of your  personality so take as much space as you need and  

don't let anyone stand in your way number 10 the  outlier there's plenty of information circling  

about alpha males and beta males but many people  struggle to place themselves in either category  

you hear their personality traits and lifestyle  habits but nothing sounds familiar nothing seems  

to fit your personality so if you don't fall  into either category you may be a sigma male  

sigma males are far and away the most  diverse of the three sigma males by  

nature defy labels and archetypes they exist  outside the usual categories and expectations  

they don't fit into any of the most  common groups because they themselves  

are uncommon they walk a path that only they could  walk so if this sounds like you if you aren't an  

alpha or a beta you may fit into this diverse  category you may be a sigma male hey thank you
