Now again I'm not sure how compatible the alpha male program is with the conscious program I'm designing. If it is/can be then great, if not I may request a custom to be made at a later date. But to explain my reasoning for the qualities listed and their order.
Obviously ambition comes first. A person has to feel the desire to change, imagine a better future and create goals as well as a plan of action for reaching those goals.
Then follows motivation, by being able to see the benefits of reaching ones goals and learning to enjoy the process it makes taking that crucial first step and being a self starter that takes initiative all that much easier.
Once goals are made and a plan of action thought out and begun there will be an issue of time. Most people have been programmed to expect immediate gratification. This is one of the reasons that New Years Resolutions tend to fail for so many...they don't see results fast enough.
Determination, tenacity and persistence are essential qualities for a man that wants to become a man of significance.
The preceding three qualities could likely be paired with a love of healthy competition, a distinctively male characteristic. The enjoyment of being tested and challenged as well as the sportsman like ability to get up and try again next game even in the face of a loss should make these qualities stick more.
Discipline and organization would be next. The person is on the path of growth and improvement in the various aspects of their life, they are unshaken by setbacks and delayed gratification. Now they focus on eliminating things from their life that are counterproductive. Impulsive spending, cluttered home, poor time management, tendencies toward stress and quick fits of anger. These bring control of the self and ones environment into play which make reaching ones goals all the better.
Confidence and Assertiveness almost go hand in hand imo. By this point the budding Alpha in progress has made several life changes, has made improvements in various aspects of his life and is strengthening his self control and ability to be a strong successful man. With successes under his belt he knows well his capabilities, his knowledge that he is an achiever and a man capable of success he will feel confidence and enhanced self esteem based on himself and his abilities as opposed to external approval. This in turn gives him enough of a sense of value that he loses tolerance for disrespect and he asserts himself calmly knowing he deserves respect for the man he is.
With a solid foundation of confidence, his ability to be optimistic and positive increases. This should have a positive feedback effect on motivation, making him even more motivated to prusue his goals and the life he wants.
The positivity and optimism acts as a foundation for social skills and charisma, creating a magnetic personality that draws people of both genders to him.
This eventually leads to compassion, courage and leadership. We now have an ambitious, goal oriented man...a motivated self starter that takes initiative and is persistent through setbacks and obstacles. He knows where he's going in life and has a plan for getting there. He's confident, assertive and likable. Which makes him a natural man of influence. With the qualities of compassion, courage and leadership he becomes a central figure in his (likely by now) expanding social circle. His positive energy likely draws people to him naturally and his motivation likely contagious which puts him in the position of a likely leader of men (Alpha) that can help lead others in directions that will benefit their lives.
If you think the Alpha Male set is compatible with this plan, awesome...if they're too different and this would call for something custom let me know and we can work out the details.

Post Alpha should be that he does things to improve his health, energy and enjoyment independent of any opinions women may have on it. He does it because he cares enough about himself to take care of his body and health and not because he needs external validation or approval from women.
It makes quite a lot of sense. Pre alpha and post alpha, your beliefs system is going to be more on the positive healthy side. So, what you once thought was interesting and enjoyable, now is not. As I stated in my other post, because of your former limited beliefs.
For example, lets say a guy goes to the gym to get buff, because his motivation is from thinking he will get all the girls if he looked liked a guy in a super sexy fitness magazine. Now take that guy post Alpha, he now no longer has any motivation to go to the gym, because it has wiped clean those negatives beliefs that gave him that motivation.
Post alpha...Now he is confident enough he can get girls with out going to the gym, so he has no motivation to go to the gym to get buff.
So it might not be just procrastination!
Thats something to think about!
