The Alpha Male Has the COURAGE It Takes to Control the Frame of Every Relationship

By Skip La Cour

Controlling the Frame In A Relationship Can Be Like A Game of "Chicken"


Wikipedia defines the game of "Chicken" is an influential model of conflict for two players in game theory. The principle of the game is that while each player prefers not to yield to the other, the outcome where neither player yields is the worst possible one for both players. The name "Chicken" has its origins in a game in which two drivers drive towards each other on a collision course: one must swerve, or both may die in the crash, but if one driver swerves and the other does not, the one who swerved will be called a "chicken," meaning a coward.

When two people who are in any kind of relationship (business, intimate, and friendship) have a disagreement, it isn't always the person who is “right” that is the most influential. And, as you have probably experienced at one time or another in the past, the person who is “right” will not always get his way. The person who controls the frame will get his way.

The Alpha male understands that the person who values the relationship least is oftentimes the most influential. If he is more willing to walk away from the relationship if it doesn't the way he wants more than the other person (or gives the impression he is more willing) he can oftentimes get his way whether he is “right” or “wrong.” Most of the time, “right” or “wrong” is merely and opinion—and the Alpha male makes sure the relationship works from what his idea of “right” is.

An Alpha male's influence over another person can be just like a game of “Chicken.” As you strive to take your Alpha male qualities and characteristics to the next level, hold tight in your frame whenever possible. Evaluate your situation and practice playing “Chicken” in the game of influence whenever the risks allow you to do so. With enough time and practice, you can take more and more skilled risks.
