Every time I read Shannon's post about it I feel empowered and on focus, as if I knew this is exactly my goal. But when I read Blackdragon's book I feel differently. I feel objections from his views very often. He's sometimes more like a jerk than True Alpha to be honest, not to mention he's contradicting himself quite often. Don't get me wrong, that book is great and really inspirational, but it has its flaws, and definition of Alpha 2.0 is one of them. But maybe it's just my different understanding of the term, different goals and endgame.
For me, I much prefer Blackdragon's lifestyle and results (which is all it boils down to, imo), thus I follow his model more. I'm sure both have merit on their own right, in the end, you gotta go with what makes you hardest.
