    If you're wondering how to be dominant, stop being a nice guy and become a more confident, charismatic man, then we can learn a thing or two from Michael Corleone.
    The Godfather is one of the most dominant, high-quality men of cinema history.
    The Godfather is a highly charismatic man and, if he weren't a mobster, he might as well be "the perfect man".
    This Godfather analysis shows the dominant body language signals that make the Godfather the most dominant man in the room.
    If you want to stop being too nice, you can copy a couple of moves from The Godfather body language.
    He is also often the man that most people around look up to, making him a natural high-quality leader.
    Of course, there are many more nuances and elements that make The Godfather a dominant man.
    Money, resources, and hitmen are also part of his power.
    This is not to be intended as an exhaustive list but more like a quick analysis of a few key scenes.

    True dominance in a godfathers world is making the enemy feel he is in control while you are pulling all the strings. You create the camouflage of weakness and submission to lull the victim into arrogance and complacency. Then you have true control. That is the central theme of vito and michael corleone.

    • @zacharyhockett6248
      @zacharyhockett6248 6 лет назад +20

      I think these things are valuable to study because they represent ways to assert or reinforce your dominance. However, all of these are empty gestures that mean nothing without power behind them. Dominance is something that can be created using power (power being control over something other people want, material or otherwise). Power is of course generated by force or the threat of force. Dominance must then be the result of a complex social and downright primal equation where force, power, and dominance are variables on the left and obedience is the answer on the right.
      So I was perhaps wrong in stating that these are symptoms of dominance. They are not. Dominance itself is a product of power. The result is the same. That without power these are useless. However, they would help a person utilize their power to create dominance.

    • @ZMorpheus
      @ZMorpheus 6 лет назад +31

      That is true. All these figures like Sonny, Al Pacino, Marlon Brando etc were all Bosses.. They already had the respect. They could release a fart, and people would wait until they're finished. These are only displays of dominance, nothing to do with the breakdown of it. Try doing pregnant pauses or silent gestures among random people, they won't wait and talk straight over the person or in the opening. These figures already had that respect.

    While you can ACT like an alpha male, ACTING will only get you so far. Actually BEING an Alpha Male, now that, that takes years of actual life experiences. You can ACT being an alpha and pull it off for so long until you get brought down. You have to actually BE alpha by experiencing a fast and at times dangerous or tough life. A top mobster, kingpin or cartel leader has had more than his share of good, bad and learning experiences which has shaped him into what he ACTUALLY is. Which is an actual alpha who is unafraid, courageous and possibly dangerous to those who cross him. ACTING alpha and dominant will only get you so far.

    Interesting analysis. However, I disagree about the shoulder slap. If sincere, it is a sign of friendship and same level status rather than a dominated position.

    • @ThePowerMoves
      @ThePowerMoves  6 лет назад +5

      Hi Luka, I agree, it can definitely be a friendly gesture.
      And some of the those arm slapping can easily be read as friendly indeed. However the vibe from the overall scene though is still Mo acting like the big man in the room.
      Consider:
      1. He's not there to greet Mike (letting him wait)
      2. When he says if the chefs cooked well enough for him, he's treating him like a guest
      3. When he says to his helpers to "throw chips to everyone in the room", that's rather offensive to a powerful man. Mike is a co-owner of the casino, he doesn't need Mo to hand out some freebies.

Now if it was a blatant opposition shown on both sides and actions have already been taken against one another, that's when you maintain your distance.

    Dominant or not you need to have a higher purpose for your life, and the interesting thing is those who submit themselves to higher ideals, and or God (whatever God means to you) become indomitable. This dominance hierarchy applies more to the people who are materialistic. Those who seek to be dominant for the sake of dominance over others are mislead, and usually their story will end in ruins, think the Biblical story of the evil pharaoh, or Goliath the giant. Aim to find truth and master yourself, improve your life and the lives of other men (and women), and as you give more you will receive more, you will soar high above the plains of competition and dominance hierarchies. And if there is any dominance in the world of men, it should be based on competence not on dictatorship.

    • @ThePowerMoves
      @ThePowerMoves  5 лет назад +1

      A higher purpose is definitely a good thing for anybody.

    In a day when macho and alpha are frowned upon we can't ignore the generations of young men that look up to us. We cannot cower down nor apologize in the face of societal denigration of the traditional male figure. So turn off the tv. Do not let Hollywood dictate the terms of your masculinity. Be proud to be a man. It should not worry you if you offend. Think about how your father raised you and he was raised. Remember, we have a responsibility to mentor our young men and no one else can replace us.

    Something else about turning your back to someone is that it puts you in a position of vulnerability. In Michael's case with Fredo, I think two things are going on.
    For one, Michael is implicitly showing his strength because he has no fear of what Fredo might do as a result of being dismissed like this.
    But also, Michael feels guilty. He knows that Fredo has a point. Fredo has a right to have expected more responsibility and power, based on his status in the family. And while Michael knows that Fredo is too dumb and weak, he also loves his brother and doesn't want to hurt him by saying so.
    So he turns his back and allows his brother to berate him.

    • @ThePowerMoves
      @ThePowerMoves  6 лет назад

    People trying to always appear dominant are useful fools easily manipulated by those that have their own goal they are committed too, focused on and motivated towards. When wanting to dominate is a desired goal or end in and of itself it indicates you are not dominant but a vulnerable fool, it indicates you are the inferior man. The superior man does not desire to dominate any situation, the superior man knows what he wants and uses wisdom to control himself to get it, using wisdom indicates he reaches his goals with the least effort. He most of the time quietly goes his own way towards his own goals with the least effort. Sometimes this means he operates covertly and lets others think they are dominant, often this means he does not seek the limelight and applause, but always this means he has his focus on the goals he wants, takes actions, collect feedback and learns and modifies behaviour and tries again until he reaches his goal

      We bow to the creator
      I´ve seen muslims bow.
      They bow to each others asses.
      True story.
      But I never knew that was because muslims believe the heavens and earth is created by an asshole.
