Becoming a successful entrepreneur means you focus on business and making yourself a successful entrepreneur. AM means you focus on becoming a self realized and self actualized man who is strong and capable.
Does BASE have anything to do with Alpha-ness? To a degree. It's designed to get you strong enough, bold enough, courageous enough, action-oriented enough and assertive enough to achieve the goal. But it's not focused just on becoming a stronger, better, more self actualized and realized person. It uses that toward a bigger goal, becoming successful as an entrepreneur. The end goal is not the same, and neither is the journey.
If you prefer success with women to focusing on business, then by all means, run AM/WM/SM. If you want to focus on success in business and becoming wealthy and successful as a result, then by all means, run BASE. But, as I have said before... attracting, keeping and succeeding with women requires money.
The more money you have, the more interesting you become to women - even those who are not gold diggers, because more money = more security, more fun, more freedom, more success, more power, and more options.
The more money you have, the more options you have. The more money you have, the more high level and to some degree, high quality the females you can interest and attract. Anyone who tells you that money doesn't matter in attracting women has some delusions to overcome, because even if she's attracted to you for reasons other than money, she wants to be happy in life. "Poor but in love" doesn't appeal to many women who have much to offer a man. 8-9-10 ranking women, women with advanced degrees, and women who have other valuable assets to bring to the table are generally going to aim for being as happy as they can be in life, and while money cannot buy happiness, it can make achieving happiness a lot easier. So don't expect to ever see a super model dating a homeless man.
When you focus on business, you cannot focus on women at the same time. These two goals are conflicting. When I was starting this business and getting it off the ground, I had a very sexy girlfriend who I routinely had to lock out of my office for many hours at a time, because she wanted my attention and to get it, she was willing to spend all day having amazing sex with me. Now, if you have orders to fill and customers to please and products to create and label and package and advertisements to write and bills to pay and equipment to maintain and customers to assist, is having amazing sex all day going to get that done? No. You have to focus on business, not sex, not chasing women, not romance.
That's not to say you cannot meet women, have sex or find love (or have sex and/or love) while using BASE. But it is to say that these things must necessarily be secondary or even tertiary. Becoming a successful entrepreneur must come first, and if it did not, I would be doing you a great disservice in releasing such a program if that is the goal. Depending on how you go about becoming a successful entrepreneur, you may have more or less time, freedom, money and opportunity to achieve sex, love, relationships, etc. - but these things must be ranked behind what is necessary to do to become a successful entrepreneur if that is the goal.
So if you have doubts because you think maybe you might not have as much chance for sex, then BASE is not for you. But if you're ready to step up and do what it takes, then go for it. BASE has got your back.
Will BASE de-alpha you? No. It will benefit from your alphaness. But it will not focus you on becoming alpha in the same way, to the same level or at the same intensity, because the goal is becoming a successful entrepreneur.
Am saving this post for future ( & frequent) reference, Some of your posts are gold (at least for me) Shannon. All I can say is thanks....
