Shannon's Journal Discussion

[Shannon]

Shannon, if one becomes enlightened does that mean they can't be an alpha male since they have no ego?

Enlightenment is about self mastery. It is just in a different direction than being "alpha". One is focused in mastering awareness, consciousness and growth, and the other is focused on leadership and achieving one's potentials. But it is quite possible to be both at once, although you would certainly be an ascendant alpha if you were both at once. Alpha, without ascendance, is born of fear, which is ignorance of the reality around you. Enlightenment is awareness of the reality around you.
