@@dexterdeloyd4154 I would say surprised about the channel and how it's seems to relate to everyone as they keep stating after seeing the videos they are sigma. A sigma has a logic way of thinking and if that's you then you are in for a treat after a few major adversities if you have no clue. Then you see videos and resonate on a deeper level. You are not alone. You would be silly to think that you are for example. Many people find it hard in life because they don't know who they are in the first place to even start. Find out who you are and learn what you can to become the best version of yourself. This will be the start of your journey. Enjoy. Peace.
i find it funny how everyone wants to identify with the label that is supposed to be rare. i see a lot of people who claim to be infj too. for some reason youtube keeps suggesting these things to me. i am a bit of a loner but i am aware that we need other people.
For me these are traits of an intelligent person. Man or woman. Don't get why these are just males. Don't really care for the sigma concept. Or alpha, beta, omega. All of these are pseudoscientific and shallow in my opinion. No one is fully anything but a complicated mix
@No one in their right mind would argue with you that human nature is far too complex to fit in any well defined role or profile. What can be said however is that human nature resonates with certain profiles. Be it alpha, beta or sigma for that matter.
Conformity is for cowards, normalcy is for newbs, small talk is for small minds, and external validation is for the insecure who don't know themselves.
My younger years were much harder because I thought for myself and felt that most of what seemed important to the vast majority of people was just stupid. Once I learned to be comfortable with myself (in my 30s), whether alone or with other people, I realized how incredibly lucky to be how I am.
In my 30s now. One challenge I face is my family thinks I'm isolated/depressed/not normal and that's why I don't enjoy things a "Normal" person would enjoy...😟
I had a woman online once who attempted to rattle my cage, saying "You're old fashioned" because I won't buckle to trends. I replied: "No, I am not old fashioned. I am un-fashioned."
When I was 7 or 8 I tried to be "normal" to fit in. I found that even then I was alone but I was also bored to tears. I learned to enjoy "being me" and not to allow normalcy to be forced on me.
Hey Rob. I'm 61 years old and walking alone through the park, I've always wondered why I feel like I do. I pursue excellence, purpose and honesty, I've walked away from 30 year friendships and rarely looked back. Left unfulfilling jobs and avoided crowds and small talk. My friends are the decent ones I've filtered out. I can't bare fools and increasingly need less of anything. All along its the wiring!
Not waiting for a moment to speak, just not speaking if nothing important is to be said. Sigmas are ambiverts, we choose whether to be introverted or extroverted and we're only in competition with ourselves.
@@darylefleming1191 👍 I dont know of any other personality types it applies to or any other Sigmas in person, but it seems to apply to most or all Sigmas. Even though I test as INTJ, I'm not truly an introvert or I probably wouldn't be on social media.
Man, I really envy you. Recently, I've been questioning everything that I own. What you own, owns you or at least a measure of your time. I've even been thinking of going car free.
I never claim to be anything anymore because I've seen too many who are the opposite of what they claim; I generally say I'm confused, but this presentation is exactly how I think and always have.
Worth watching for the single word "authentic", as in being "authentic" to your own thought processes: and what you want from life, avoiding becoming an item on someone else's agenda. That absolutely nails being a sigma :) but not being part of the crowd is seldom especially comfortable? so crowds are avoided; hence a fairly/very? solitary life.
So I’m a Sigma. I’ve also learned recently from my son’s diagnosis that I’m autistic too. These are super powers in my opinion. They have their disadvantages sometimes. But I’m ok with that.
Thats the second time I have heard that autism is a super power. But both times from people with autism. How would you know if Autism is a super power if you haven't been without this "super power"? Or is it just a coping mechanism? Well on that front I don't think any true sigma knows what it's like not to be sigma - so all we can do is just imagine what it would like to be alpha and liked/feared for our social powers... and say - yeah, I wouldn't like that. I would much rather design rockets that return to the earth so they can be re-used and save money than have to manage all those people!
@ super power in a way that some of my traits have allowed me to become high up in my job due to my skills aquired by means of observation and obsession. BUT because I’m not a people person, I now suffer with imposter syndrome having to lead a team of people. There is always an opposite to everything. So you’re right. What I define as super is me focusing on the positives that have just as many negatives. So yeah, it’s a coping mechanism.
@@georgeklein6078 Autism can be like min/maxing a character ... a mental glass cannon. Amazing at somethings at the cost of others, so it's really about context. Another way to look at it is, autism gives you different number of dice to roll in character creation ... so normies might roll 3 x D6 for intelligence ... autists get to roll 4 x D6 .... but we still might end up with INT4 lol ... but if you roll all sixes you get a capacity (in narrow bands usually) that is just not matchable by a hard working normie, not matter how much effort they might spend.
Who wants to 'fit in'......especially to the shallow, inane 'conformity' that is the modern world. I'm happy in the extreme being a true sigma. Make your own choices and do your own thing....the only way to live...at least for me. This vid is pretty much accurate. Thanks .
I'll share my peak sigma story, during the medical theatre a few years ago in England. I didn't change a step, take a penny or give one, I'm still yet to meet anyone else that can claim that. One night I was out walking the dog in the deserted streets, slowly people coming outside and start standing on their doorsteps. I'm confused for a second,then figured it must be something the TV has told them again. A minute later I'm on the next street and its the same, people standing and waiting. The clock strikes 8 and the tin pot dictatorship orchestra start whacking pans and cheering. A true twilight zone operation, it still cracks me up to think about it. I like to think they were cheering me for just going about my business and not they're own enslavement.
I hope you’re not implying the banging of pot’s was for something other than when you’re walking the dog as I’ll feel foolish and will stop. Otherwise see you at 8
These videos came up in my feed. I don't really fucking care what people think I am, but refining my ideas of who I am I do find helpful. I enjoy social events, though--I do not care about reading. I do not care about being a leader, I've never wanted to climb the corporate ladder to be amongst even more vapid idiots, I really enjoyed watching that CEO get smoked, he was an asshole. I am a revolutionary, but not a leftist because commies are fools. All these weird dualities. Look, it's not that joyful being whatever the hell I am. I'm very strongly independent but it's also lonely at times because nobody gets me, they're just sort of afraid or dislike me for whatever reasons. And yet, I'm very successful in life--family & wealth, so not like autistic types at all.
It's easy to know for sure. If you are one of the people who took an experimental and mostly untested treatment, that was labeled as a vaccine, for a disease you already had a 99.98 per cent chance of surviving (if you even caught it), you can quit wondering. You're not a Sigma male.
@BS-Fact-checker who, you? I simply said what I think. Tf would I care about 14 likes on yoube for. Sorry if you thought you were a "sigma male"and therefore offended that I pointed out how silly it is, but you're not, you're one of a billion basic beeches who feel special when you read a zodiac column at the grocery store
"Wow, this video really nails it! Sigma males truly have a unique approach to life, and it's so interesting to see how different they are from the majority. The point about avoiding unnecessary drama really resonated with me-it’s so refreshing to see people focus on what truly matters instead of getting caught up in trivial things. Also, the way sigma males value their independence while still being capable of forming meaningful connections is so inspiring. I think this video really highlights qualities we can all learn from. Great content and so well explained! 🙌
One social norm that I've always scratched my head about is the tie. Why do people have to wear ties? I hate them. They are uncomfortable, and I don't see why I should wear one just because it is expected.
They are prerequisite for Masons. Ties are chivaric pennants. Top is blue with spots. Purple with spots Chevron ties are officers. Anyone else is a wannabe yet to be asked or rejectsvthat dont know they did not pas the test. Masonic halls are nolonger the main place if business. Go to golf courses. They play in fours, interchange do business. Tuesdays, Wednesdays Thursdays are for lawyers, accountants and proffesional services Friday and Saturday for hoi palloi. Sunday is open slather and Monday is for retirees. I might be wrong. I wore ties for 20 years. Was a green keeper for 6.
I like small tall not because it's what you should do, but I like to sharpen my social skills. It's like metal training to get rid of social anxiety. Plus I like approaching girls and having a conversation with them lol
I am, and have always been a Sigma, I , at 51 have built a life that I love. I need validation from absolutely no one. I stand back and look at my work and decide if it is worthy or not. It always is before I reveal it. The Ceator endowed me with this and it is often a very lonely path but I find beauty and peace in the solace.
Well, as a Sigma male (and a professional scientist working in Biotech during my entire career), I would say you’ve *nailed* the key values and attributes that characterize a Sigma male. As an example, i’d much rather be at home during an evening studying theoretical physics (and enjoying the company of my two adopted cats), than being out at a bar drinking with some friends.
As a little boy I would say hello to everyone walking by. My mother would tell me that I didn't need to say hello to everyone. I wasn't looking to make friends with everyone that walked by, I was looking to find a friendship with someone special, someone like me. I have always been a different cat...I realized this early in life. Now I understand why...I don't really like people, the shallow nature of those who set their metric based on material or monetary value. Means absolutely nothing to me and I honestly steer clear of these types of people intentionally. My circle is small...just yhe the eay I like it. I am content in my authenticity...which is a meaning not an adjective.
It is important to realise that Sigma is just a label and does not encapsulate the entirety of a person, their potential & how they may change and adapt depending on the contexts within their lives and the lives of others. We are impermanent in our evolving nature & as useful as these labels can be as a reference to attributes characteristics, beliefs & mentalities it does not completely express the unlimited depths of our growth. I completely relate to this video & I would agree that I fit the "label" of being a Sigma, however knowing this is a label that cannot encapsulate me or anyone in their entirety is important to recognise as we may limit our mindset to be too rigid in defining ourselves. It is important to balance labels for reference with your ongoing unknown potential & adaptability within this reality. If you find anything this video has said or anything anyone else has said useful in this comment section then I ask that you pay it forwards 👍
The funniest part of this, is the comments section being filled with people who think they're a sigma now, ..when they're not. They're basically just thinkng or saying they are so they can feel or appear to be "different" or more interesting than they actually are. .. the ones who comment "this is SO.. me!" .. it's not.
Precisely. Sigmas don’t care what others think - true . However neither do they feel the need to outlandishly state who they are to others, especially on the anonymous web, for they are aware of who they are without seeking any sort of validation either from others ( even anonymously ) or for themselves by making such loud self affirmative statements . Acting contrary to this , even just with typed words on the anonymous web, is contrary to the path of a sigma and therefore you cannot truly call yourself one. Never ever say ( I’m a Sigma ) anywhere to anyone otherwise you are surely NOT what you state you are. Any Sigma should know this and any Sigma wouldn’t bother to announce it - as it is worthless on its own.
I live in a van off grid and haven't held a formal job for years now. Do I qualify? I have a loving girlfriend and I do word of mouth appliance repair. Plenty of friends and no obligations beyond my cell bill and car insurance. Spend most days alone.
It's not that I don't care what people think. Life has taught me that people aren't thinking about me at all. 😂 As long as I'm not in their way, what do they care? Oftentimes, "caring" is usually an indicator that the person is a manipulator. They want to modify my behavior to suit their agenda. No thank you.
As a 7 year old I used to think through an analogy whether it was better to be a tree in a forest or a lone tree. Things like crowding out light, forest fires, exposure to the elements.... these individualistic traits are innate.
Does anyone, like me, find themselves thinking "yes, I've done those things fairly often" yet also "no, this doesn't fully describe me". For instance: I was always the kid in school who would get himself into trouble for disagreeing with the teacher when she wanted comformist kids who said "yes, we enjoyed that miss". I always found small talk difficult when trying to form relationships. It was like "hey, I have a ton of really interesting things we could talk about, so why are we sticking to the vapid dross?" But on the other hand, I'm very gregarious and actually like big crowds of people. And I'm not completely self sufficient by any means. Rather than the "I'll go my own way, you can all go another" I'm more likely to say "why on earth are you all still going this way?" Perhaps - using the 16 personalities languages - I am "ENTP": the debater, whereas a signma is "INTP" - the logician.
I can relate, being sometimes extroverted, and sometimes wanting to keep to myself. I don't so much fit in any crowd or scene, but enjoy exploring many scenes, as long as conformity isn't mandatory. Also more an intuitive ENFP type, adept at analysis, but more inclined to trust and go with my gut.
Sigma's follow Kaizen, we are always looking for better ways to improve things.Even if that means throwing conventions away and starting with a blank sheet of paper. Never get stuck in groupthink or a knodding donkey mindset. Gather data, analyze , develop options, select best option based on desired outcome or objective.
I use to live for the weekend between 1980s-and late 1990s in my 20s and 30s. I've did have fun go to the cinemas enjoy youth. as time pass my focus become clear of what that i love the most, with the hobby i do, i love to create new things and to be a lone wolf that i am. making me realize over time why should i fallower the norm. even i was a young boy, i never did fallow the rule of society that want us to be. Yes rules are important, and this is important to help as a team alone with sigma who can help out
alpha, beta, sigma, etc… is mainstream rubbish that has genuinely nothing to do with humans, at all. at best its pop psych. psychology derived from feedback that a group of animal behaviorist discovered to be true when studying a pack of wolves in captivity back in the late sixties.
The more I see the sigma articles the more I know I am one however I do look forward to the weekend because those are my fun projects I mean I always have something to do so I have my money making things I do during the week and then the money I make then I get to spend it on the my hobbies that I love on the weekend so it's really fun I have a really great life and you're right I'm not big on parties and all that silliness
Its funny. Whenever I make a comment on Reddit or YT or wherever that is unpopular, the number of people that ridicule me for downvotes or lack of upvotes as some kind of a mark of failure. Its a constant reminder of what sheep people are. I said my piece and thats my only motivation.
#1 and #3 struck home for me to be honest i don't care what anyone thinks seeking validation has never been my thing or fitting in from day one it was my mom dad and sister vs me i got treated badly for liking heavy metal comic books and horror films and i still don't regret it i will leave my life they way i desire #sigmamalepower
I gave stand up comedy a good try for a year and a half, finally had the best set of my life, everyone was cracking up and i felt NOTHING... never did it again
Even as a kid I said people were like sheep in big groups all following each other. Back and forth. Over and over again. And again. Trying to follow along in grade school made me sick to my stomach. It never changes when you get older either. Do things like the common sheep and fit in and be popular but miserable or go your own way and be dammed with conformity and being at peace. I live within the laws but I don't live within any rules.
I fit the sigma empath, but according to some adding a comment on here says I'm not. I do find most people boring, wth small talk, sucking up, throwing you under the bus to get a brownie point, and believing exactly what they're told, and gossip merchants, and not wanting awards or brownie points, I'm happy I don't fit in !
@@DanO_DanOthat depends on the intent of the original post. Certainly a “sigma” wouldn’t jump to conclusions, without consideration of that. So a blanket statement, by you, or the other party, seems out of alignment with the whole “sigma” thing. Glass houses.
I don't know if I'm "sigma" or even if that's really a thing but I have some of these characteristics and it only caused me grief, especially at work, my resistance to BS conformity never seemed to inspire others but rather make then annoyed. Life would have been easier if I wasn't this way but I really had no choice.
Is Sigmas are more powerful than the Alphas. Because they still require a sense of validation, acceptance and conformity from others. Sure, they may have physical attributes such as height, muscular build and athleticism which gives them their sense of superiority over what they would deem to be betas, but they tend to be very insecure inside and can’t live without attention. I’ll admit I was a beta male at one point, but these alphas won’t dare to even look me in the eye anymore. I don’t even have to raise my voice or my fists, I let my eyes, my confident aura and energy speak for themselves. That is true power.
2:28 That's what originally Nietzsche's term 'ubermench' meant: independent thinker. vs untermench - person who follows the herd without questioning anything. Slave mentality. Thank god, we've got different terminology to describe all this.
No to small talk and all other forms of pleasantries. Never do anything "just because." For a reason such as "just because," I'd rather read a book, watch a movie or run thought experiments in my head or with a friend.
The sad truth is that most people will throw their identity away to not be alone. Me.... I wont cross the street for it. If what is being sold is of no value then my presence will be not. I seem to have a dopamine equivalent to a null voltmeter in my head. It goes higher, stays the same or goes down. I know almost instantly whether I want to spend one more second with another person. I run out of time everyday so talking about nothing with no one doesn't really ring my bell. I knew ages ago that the people I'm looking for will seem like panning for gold / placer mining. They might be fewer than 1 in 10,000 or worse. If I want a pet I'll get one. Shallow is the new norm..... it isn't just small talk.... it's all most people have.
I am a ♋️ and a Sigma so I hate small talk and wasting time. I had to LEARN how to small talk and be patient so I could fit into corporate America. Thank the Universal God and Ancestors for allowing me to be free from it all now🌌🌞🌍🌙🌠🧘🏽♂️
@harlem-mic7358 I didn't know what a Sigma male was until I heard these videos and they are actually pretty accurate. Everyone I know thinks they are an "ALPHA". When I did some research, most of the alpha stuff is in context to wolves, so I don't know🤣
Somewhat confronting. When i used to commute daily for school. Took the stairs and internally shook my head when seeing full escalators. Escalators are made to walk on. It's to get you to the next floor, Faster. *the irony is, they are seemingly always in a rush. Because they never wait for people to get out before it's their turn to get in. And i never am. For always taking 1 train too "early". **Pragmatism. It Can, make it so that you'll be perceived as frigid and arrrogant.
In prague people, except few tourists go on one side on escalator, its a norm. So another line is free to walk even faster. Solution found by self aligbement. People here dont care but at the same time keep checking others not to stand in a way. Thats something which fascinates me about society here.
Love this clip, but that escalator example is completely ridiculous. People us escalators just because everyone else does? Or one of many logical reasons they cant/wont/dont want to use the stairs instead?
I don't have the 'tism. I was born normal and abused by an angry alcoholic father. It made me weird and awkward. I always felt shitty and often unhappy. Made me stand out and made other kids not like me, so I didn't socialize normally and I rarely fit in with any group and I don't have the normal socializing and coping skills a person should have. And yes, I got yelled at a LOT from K thru 12 by teachers and principals and other grown ups. I do not fit in today, but not because I like being independent. I just can't. And it makes me sad and a little angry. So based on the traditional definitions, I'm not a Sigma. I'm one of the other categories. I cant compete, so I'm not Alpha, Beta, or even Gamma. Gammas compete, they just fail a lot. I think I might be an Omega.
Ask yourself about time . Across cultures & religions & accepted history . The more questions you have ,even without a lot of answers ...helps bring transparency to pointless paradigms & limits reactionary responses .
A sigma male knows if you wake up it's a good day. Even when the world s*** we still know we're alive it's a good day. And most people cannot look at the world that way. Holy Spirit of Humanity we love life and it drives us nuts to you humans don't realize this.
We tend to know more trivia than most everyone, remember conversations, check facts and catch every lie people decide to tell us. King of the Cold Call and the Walk Away. Student of Life & Master of Self, self contained polymath at play. My play pisses off a lot of people just because it’s me playing and they don’t know the game is life, and all right now. I enjoy going gnoware fast, and hurry ever chance tu it! Be the Bliss, forevermohr!
Well done. Actually you have the order of events wrong though. First we reject the norm. Then with "proper arguments" we will accept it if it makes sense. But it isn't the peferred outcome. First we will reject all norms and they have to fight to make it into our list of things we are willing to do.
So i am surprised about this stuff and how well defined we are crazy i felt that I kept everything under wraps im my own person but crazy to see you are all like me tho
I'ts smart to try and understand the function of a norm before skipping it. If it's hidden that's a sign there's something wrong with it. If you can understand it you can know when it applies. Often what's wrong with norms is not their existence but their over-application. If you are expected to conform without asking why then something is fishy.
Often it's not about 'non-comformity' often it's just logic and being sensible. If the escalator has a big queue, and no one is using the stairs, then why not use the stairs? It's better for you, others might follow you and then that'll free up the escaltor for those who might have no other option because they're old or disabled. It's not necessarily about being awkward and non-comformist or being seen to be different. Sometimes people are so blinkered in just following the herd, the obvious is overlooked.
I'd say I have characteristics of this trait but not all of them. Not sure if this ties in but I am on the autistic spectrum and my social skills are mediocre at best. Small talk is painful for me and I hate group think. One time at work one of the " cool people" came up with this lame idea that actually makes things harder. Everyone clapped like a seal when it was suggested, I instantly knew it would not work, so I did not clap. I've been called a D-bag and a A-hole at work for pointing out obvious things, as well as calling BS on a manager once. Some of my family gets on nerves, especially when they gas light me or apologize for a family members crappy behavior. Honesty is better than sugar coated BS any day, even if it comes at a price.
When I was much younger, I was a public servant for a few years. It wasn't a bad job. Easy, paid well, could see a bright future in it. But it just wasn't me. Public servants are all the same, they dress the same, think the same. To succeed you have to be one of ''them''. I left and took up farming. I like working alone, doing my own thing, not giving a damn what others might think. I feel very comfortable following my instinct, I'm always right. I was even married once to a woman who's chatter was like a gossip magazine. I never say much myself unless it's important. I'm very good at solving mechanical problems, effortlessly, so I became a diesel mechanic by trade. I love brilliant colours. I hate the white and various greys and silvers to black that everything seems to be these days. Especially cars and house interiors. I saw a flat grey Ferrari the other day. Why would you bother? I don't care to be one of the mob. I'm comfortable standing apart alone. I don't like to draw attention to myself. If you don't notice me....good.
There are no absolutes. Language is dependent on current trends, just as the term ‘sigma’ is a crystallization of a large number of individuals with varied traits. And these varied trait characteristics (which vary wildly between people) have been subjected to the current trend of categorization as ‘sigma’ as though it is immutable and fixed. Question: Given the traits specified as those inherent to ‘a sigma,’ would ‘a sigma’ adhere to this culturally enforced and limited classification system itself? And does that make me ‘a sigma’ given that ‘a sigma’ is a current cultural classification that is impermanent and doesn’t exist?! “A word used too much always defeats its own purpose.” (Arthur Schopenhauer)
Until youtube, I didn't have a name for my personality type. I just knew that I often had a habit of pissing people off when I had good intentions, haha.
I must say, I have a theory that everyone in the world knows something I want to know. So I have to do Smalltalk in case I'm going to trigger the person I'm talking to to reveal an unknown fact. When I get something it's like Xmas to me & I'm over the moon. When I get nothing new I just feel dirty & wish I could stop myself. I don't look at being a sigma as great. I feel I have a personality disorder.
My small talk becomes interrogation and it ends up like Sherlock Holmes telling someone all these details about their lives that I deduced. It's cringey and people find it uncomfortable, so I have to dial it back. I know that one of my work colleagues has sleeping issues because he stays up playing video games and Warhammer 40K all night long. He doesn't have sleep problems at all, he has an addiction.
I would suggest that there is no "true Sigma male" and many people exhibit a lot of the behaviors but not all. I've been accused of being autistic and have Asperger's, but I don't think I am either one. I don't know what I am. I just know what I'm not. I'm okay at small talk, but I'd rather talk about something interesting and not just the weather. I do have a limited social circle. Most people annoy me. But I often find myself wanting more connections with people and never seem to be able to get there.
Sigma males generally do not know who they are because they are not told for example. If you resonate it's possible. You become what you think about. Peace.
With all respect the true Sigma is not thrilled by this channel, but he takes note of it.
@@dexterdeloyd4154 I would say surprised about the channel and how it's seems to relate to everyone as they keep stating after seeing the videos they are sigma. A sigma has a logic way of thinking and if that's you then you are in for a treat after a few major adversities if you have no clue. Then you see videos and resonate on a deeper level. You are not alone. You would be silly to think that you are for example. Many people find it hard in life because they don't know who they are in the first place to even start. Find out who you are and learn what you can to become the best version of yourself. This will be the start of your journey. Enjoy. Peace.

@No one in their right mind would argue with you that human nature is far too complex to fit in any well defined role or profile. What can be said however is that human nature resonates with certain profiles. Be it alpha, beta or sigma for that matter.

My younger years were much harder because I thought for myself and felt that most of what seemed important to the vast majority of people was just stupid. Once I learned to be comfortable with myself (in my 30s), whether alone or with other people, I realized how incredibly lucky to be how I am.
It's called maturing. Perfectly normal. 👍
i took til my forties to reach a similar conclusion. I am encouraged to know others are moving along their own path in advance of mine.

When I was 7 or 8 I tried to be "normal" to fit in. I found that even then I was alone but I was also bored to tears. I learned to enjoy "being me" and not to allow normalcy to be forced on me.
Hey Rob. I'm 61 years old and walking alone through the park, I've always wondered why I feel like I do. I pursue excellence, purpose and honesty, I've walked away from 30 year friendships and rarely looked back. Left unfulfilling jobs and avoided crowds and small talk. My friends are the decent ones I've filtered out. I can't bare fools and increasingly need less of anything. All along its the wiring!
I am also 61. I get it.
@@jonwilmot5331bear. But, yes. I totally agree.
Question everything including yourself. Trust no one except yourself
You need to be able to trust to be able to rest.
It's easier to trust than to not. 😊
I've found that there are levels of trust.
Don't even trust yourself. This is how you fall in line. Question yourself, you must have the wherewithal to be able to.
@@danielwimberly4940 How to ever accomplish anything then?
You know, sometimes I think maybe I should try to fit in but then I come to my senses and say nah and carry-on.
Made me feel like an imposter when I tried to fit in. I can't do it.
Not waiting for a moment to speak, just not speaking if nothing important is to be said. Sigmas are ambiverts, we choose whether to be introverted or extroverted and we're only in competition with ourselves.
Ambivert…! I Love it !!! Indeed. I choose.
Thank you for increasing my vocabulary. Ambivert - A person who is neither clearly extroverted nor introverted, but has characteristics of each.
@@darylefleming1191 👍 I dont know of any other personality types it applies to or any other Sigmas in person, but it seems to apply to most or all Sigmas. Even though I test as INTJ, I'm not truly an introvert or I probably wouldn't be on social media.
Nobody is one hundred per cent an introvert or an extrovert, they display the characists of more more than the other.
I never let myself win.

Sigma hermit?😎
Such a useful video. I've struggled to understand myself for decades and this has shed light on my personality traits - thank you.
I hate it when someone says, Well everyone else is doing it. I do what I do. Not what you do.
I never claim to be anything anymore because I've seen too many who are the opposite of what they claim; I generally say I'm confused, but this presentation is exactly how I think and always have.
Worth watching for the single word "authentic", as in being "authentic" to your own thought processes: and what you want from life, avoiding becoming an item on someone else's agenda. That absolutely nails being a sigma :) but not being part of the crowd is seldom especially comfortable? so crowds are avoided; hence a fairly/very? solitary life.
I finally after 40 years figured out what I am thank you so much 🙏
So I’m a Sigma. I’ve also learned recently from my son’s diagnosis that I’m autistic too. These are super powers in my opinion. They have their disadvantages sometimes. But I’m ok with that.
Thats the second time I have heard that autism is a super power. But both times from people with autism. How would you know if Autism is a super power if you haven't been without this "super power"? Or is it just a coping mechanism? Well on that front I don't think any true sigma knows what it's like not to be sigma - so all we can do is just imagine what it would like to be alpha and liked/feared for our social powers... and say - yeah, I wouldn't like that. I would much rather design rockets that return to the earth so they can be re-used and save money than have to manage all those people!
@ super power in a way that some of my traits have allowed me to become high up in my job due to my skills aquired by means of observation and obsession. BUT because I’m not a people person, I now suffer with imposter syndrome having to lead a team of people. There is always an opposite to everything. So you’re right. What I define as super is me focusing on the positives that have just as many negatives. So yeah, it’s a coping mechanism.
@@Uberfluous404 I agree with you
@@Uberfluous404 Very good response.
@@georgeklein6078 Autism can be like min/maxing a character ... a mental glass cannon. Amazing at somethings at the cost of others, so it's really about context.
Another way to look at it is, autism gives you different number of dice to roll in character creation ... so normies might roll 3 x D6 for intelligence ... autists get to roll 4 x D6 .... but we still might end up with INT4 lol ... but if you roll all sixes you get a capacity (in narrow bands usually) that is just not matchable by a hard working normie, not matter how much effort they might spend.
Who wants to 'fit in'......especially to the shallow, inane 'conformity' that is the modern world. I'm happy in the extreme being a true sigma. Make your own choices and do your own thing....the only way to live...at least for me. This vid is pretty much accurate. Thanks .
i don't take the escalator, because i have a pair of working legs.
I'll share my peak sigma story, during the medical theatre a few years ago in England.
I didn't change a step, take a penny or give one, I'm still yet to meet anyone else that can claim that.
One night I was out walking the dog in the deserted streets, slowly people coming outside and start standing on their doorsteps. I'm confused for a second,then figured it must be something the TV has told them again.
A minute later I'm on the next street and its the same, people standing and waiting. The clock strikes 8 and the tin pot dictatorship orchestra start whacking pans and cheering.
A true twilight zone operation, it still cracks me up to think about it. I like to think they were cheering me for just going about my business and not they're own enslavement.
Cringe
I hope you’re not implying the banging of pot’s was for something other than when you’re walking the dog as I’ll feel foolish and will stop. Otherwise see you at 8
Yup, and then they voted labour 😆😉
Didn't subscribe to that phoney baloney for one minute, what a pile of hypocrisy!
Medical theater?
Here comes the never ending parade of people thinking they are sigma males lol
😂
These videos came up in my feed. I don't really fucking care what people think I am, but refining my ideas of who I am I do find helpful. I enjoy social events, though--I do not care about reading. I do not care about being a leader, I've never wanted to climb the corporate ladder to be amongst even more vapid idiots, I really enjoyed watching that CEO get smoked, he was an asshole. I am a revolutionary, but not a leftist because commies are fools. All these weird dualities.
Look, it's not that joyful being whatever the hell I am. I'm very strongly independent but it's also lonely at times because nobody gets me, they're just sort of afraid or dislike me for whatever reasons. And yet, I'm very successful in life--family & wealth, so not like autistic types at all.
It's easy to know for sure. If you are one of the people who took an experimental and mostly untested treatment, that was labeled as a vaccine, for a disease you already had a 99.98 per cent chance of surviving (if you even caught it), you can quit wondering. You're not a Sigma male.
And trying the best for likes in comments.
@BS-Fact-checker who, you? I simply said what I think. Tf would I care about 14 likes on yoube for. Sorry if you thought you were a "sigma male"and therefore offended that I pointed out how silly it is, but you're not, you're one of a billion basic beeches who feel special when you read a zodiac column at the grocery store
Apparently I've been this way since I was around 15. I always thought I was just lacking confidence or self esteem
"Wow, this video really nails it! Sigma males truly have a unique approach to life, and it's so interesting to see how different they are from the majority. The point about avoiding unnecessary drama really resonated with me-it’s so refreshing to see people focus on what truly matters instead of getting caught up in trivial things. Also, the way sigma males value their independence while still being capable of forming meaningful connections is so inspiring. I think this video really highlights qualities we can all learn from. Great content and so well explained! 🙌
One social norm that I've always scratched my head about is the tie. Why do people have to wear ties? I hate them. They are uncomfortable, and I don't see why I should wear one just because it is expected.

I am, and have always been a Sigma, I , at 51 have built a life that I love. I need validation from absolutely no one. I stand back and look at my work and decide if it is worthy or not. It always is before I reveal it. The Ceator endowed me with this and it is often a very lonely path but I find beauty and peace in the solace.
Well, as a Sigma male (and a professional scientist working in Biotech during my entire career), I would say you’ve *nailed* the key values and attributes that characterize a Sigma male. As an example, i’d much rather be at home during an evening studying theoretical physics (and enjoying the company of my two adopted cats), than being out at a bar drinking with some friends.
As a little boy I would say hello to everyone walking by. My mother would tell me that I didn't need to say hello to everyone. I wasn't looking to make friends with everyone that walked by, I was looking to find a friendship with someone special, someone like me. I have always been a different cat...I realized this early in life. Now I understand why...I don't really like people, the shallow nature of those who set their metric based on material or monetary value. Means absolutely nothing to me and I honestly steer clear of these types of people intentionally. My circle is small...just yhe the eay I like it. I am content in my authenticity...which is a meaning not an adjective.
It is important to realise that Sigma is just a label and does not encapsulate the entirety of a person, their potential & how they may change and adapt depending on the contexts within their lives and the lives of others. We are impermanent in our evolving nature & as useful as these labels can be as a reference to attributes characteristics, beliefs & mentalities it does not completely express the unlimited depths of our growth.
I completely relate to this video & I would agree that I fit the "label" of being a Sigma, however knowing this is a label that cannot encapsulate me or anyone in their entirety is important to recognise as we may limit our mindset to be too rigid in defining ourselves.
It is important to balance labels for reference with your ongoing unknown potential & adaptability within this reality.
If you find anything this video has said or anything anyone else has said useful in this comment section then I ask that you pay it forwards 👍
Excellent insight. Thank you!
My pleasure!
The funniest part of this, is the comments section being filled with people who think they're a sigma now, ..when they're not.
They're basically just thinkng or saying they are so they can feel or appear to be "different" or more interesting than they actually are.
.. the ones who comment "this is SO.. me!"
.. it's not.
Precisely.
Sigmas don’t care what others think - true . However neither do they feel the need to outlandishly state who they are to others, especially on the anonymous web, for they are aware of who they are without seeking any sort of validation either from others ( even anonymously ) or for themselves by making such loud self affirmative statements . Acting contrary to this , even just with typed words on the anonymous web, is contrary to the path of a sigma and therefore you cannot truly call yourself one. Never ever say ( I’m a Sigma ) anywhere to anyone otherwise you are surely NOT what you state you are. Any Sigma should know this and any Sigma wouldn’t bother to announce it - as it is worthless on its own.

"Draw attention effortlessly." Not always a good thing.
As a 7 year old I used to think through an analogy whether it was better to be a tree in a forest or a lone tree. Things like crowding out light, forest fires, exposure to the elements.... these individualistic traits are innate.
This is SO true....
Does anyone, like me, find themselves thinking "yes, I've done those things fairly often" yet also "no, this doesn't fully describe me".
For instance: I was always the kid in school who would get himself into trouble for disagreeing with the teacher when she wanted comformist kids who said "yes, we enjoyed that miss".
I always found small talk difficult when trying to form relationships. It was like "hey, I have a ton of really interesting things we could talk about, so why are we sticking to the vapid dross?"
But on the other hand, I'm very gregarious and actually like big crowds of people. And I'm not completely self sufficient by any means.
Rather than the "I'll go my own way, you can all go another" I'm more likely to say "why on earth are you all still going this way?"
Perhaps - using the 16 personalities languages - I am "ENTP": the debater, whereas a signma is "INTP" - the logician.
I can relate, being sometimes extroverted, and sometimes wanting to keep to myself. I don't so much fit in any crowd or scene, but enjoy exploring many scenes, as long as conformity isn't mandatory. Also more an intuitive ENFP type, adept at analysis, but more inclined to trust and go with my gut.
Sigma's follow Kaizen, we are always looking for better ways to improve things.Even if that means throwing conventions away and starting with a blank sheet of paper. Never get stuck in groupthink or a knodding donkey mindset.
Gather data, analyze , develop options, select best option based on desired outcome or objective.

I use to live for the weekend between 1980s-and late 1990s in my 20s and 30s. I've did have fun go to the cinemas enjoy youth. as time pass my focus become clear of what that i love the most, with the hobby i do, i love to create new things and to be a lone wolf that i am. making me realize over time why should i fallower the norm. even i was a young boy, i never did fallow the rule of society that want us to be. Yes rules are important, and this is important to help as a team alone with sigma who can help out
No real sigma would call himself a sigma. This isn't 2021 anymore. 😂😂😂😂
alpha, beta, sigma, etc… is mainstream rubbish that has genuinely nothing to do with humans, at all. at best its pop psych. psychology derived from feedback that a group of animal behaviorist discovered to be true when studying a pack of wolves in captivity back in the late sixties.
I don't know why I have this personality, I don't even try. People think it strange but i feel completely normal. Is it me or them?
It's them. It's definitely them.
Validation isn’t a modern desire it’s been one since the beginning…it’s what is validated that has changed
I can't say I never fit in, I chose to find places and work that valued my traits
It's not only 'why'. Quite often it's the 'why not'.
This fits me well. Never knew i was a Sigma but im good with it
Cool to see a video on "sigma males" that actually has some substance to it
The more I see the sigma articles the more I know I am one however I do look forward to the weekend because those are my fun projects I mean I always have something to do so I have my money making things I do during the week and then the money I make then I get to spend it on the my hobbies that I love on the weekend so it's really fun I have a really great life and you're right I'm not big on parties and all that silliness

@charleshairston4853 yes but it was more about the fact that I didn't care if everyone was laughing, the external validation did nothing for me
Even as a kid I said people were like sheep in big groups all following each other. Back and forth. Over and over again. And again. Trying to follow along in grade school made me sick to my stomach. It never changes when you get older either. Do things like the common sheep and fit in and be popular but miserable or go your own way and be dammed with conformity and being at peace. I live within the laws but I don't live within any rules.
yeah i think not using the elevator is kind of a stretch
I fit the sigma empath, but according to some adding a comment on here says I'm not. I do find most people boring, wth small talk, sucking up, throwing you under the bus to get a brownie point, and believing exactly what they're told, and gossip merchants, and not wanting awards or brownie points, I'm happy I don't fit in !
Those who make statements that Sigmas don’t comment are not Sigmas. They’re envious.
@@DanO_DanOI came here to make the same point as you 🤝
@@DanO_DanOthat depends on the intent of the original post. Certainly a “sigma” wouldn’t jump to conclusions, without consideration of that. So a blanket statement, by you, or the other party, seems out of alignment with the whole “sigma” thing.
Glass houses.
We all live in glass houses, I ask the question is there such a thing as a Sigma, or is this a lable, which is a contradiction anyway.
I don't know if I'm "sigma" or even if that's really a thing but I have some of these characteristics and it only caused me grief, especially at work, my resistance to BS conformity never seemed to inspire others but rather make then annoyed. Life would have been easier if I wasn't this way but I really had no choice.
Well said. What sigma describes is an INTJ, and life as an INTJ is hardly blissful.
Is Sigmas are more powerful than the Alphas. Because they still require a sense of validation, acceptance and conformity from others. Sure, they may have physical attributes such as height, muscular build and athleticism which gives them their sense of superiority over what they would deem to be betas, but they tend to be very insecure inside and can’t live without attention. I’ll admit I was a beta male at one point, but these alphas won’t dare to even look me in the eye anymore. I don’t even have to raise my voice or my fists, I let my eyes, my confident aura and energy speak for themselves. That is true power.
Opinion: Alphas are also (probably) more prone to sociopathy, due to the inherent narcissism associated with the need for validation.
I hero wants not only for things to stay the same but will fight for it a villain wants change.
2:28 That's what originally Nietzsche's term 'ubermench' meant: independent thinker. vs untermench - person who follows the herd without questioning anything. Slave mentality. Thank god, we've got different terminology to describe all this.
As a possible Sigma I find weather a deep and significant subject .😊
No to small talk and all other forms of pleasantries. Never do anything "just because." For a reason such as "just because," I'd rather read a book, watch a movie or run thought experiments in my head or with a friend.
Sigma do like socializing with selected group when he felt that he is not that smart or dangerous from them.
The sad truth is that most people will throw their identity away to not be alone. Me.... I wont cross the street for it. If what is being sold is of no value then my presence will be not. I seem to have a dopamine equivalent to a null voltmeter in my head. It goes higher, stays the same or goes down. I know almost instantly whether I want to spend one more second with another person. I run out of time everyday so talking about nothing with no one doesn't really ring my bell. I knew ages ago that the people I'm looking for will seem like panning for gold / placer mining. They might be fewer than 1 in 10,000 or worse. If I want a pet I'll get one. Shallow is the new norm..... it isn't just small talk.... it's all most people have.
I am a ♋️ and a Sigma so I hate small talk and wasting time. I had to LEARN how to small talk and be patient so I could fit into corporate America. Thank the Universal God and Ancestors for allowing me to be free from it all now🌌🌞🌍🌙🌠🧘🏽♂️
Amen brother. Hope to get that freedom soon myself.

@harlem-mic7358 I didn't know what a Sigma male was until I heard these videos and they are actually pretty accurate. Everyone I know thinks they are an "ALPHA". When I did some research, most of the alpha stuff is in context to wolves, so I don't know🤣

All checks out, except I'd change cannot to do not.
Somewhat confronting. When i used to commute daily for school. Took the stairs and internally shook my head when seeing full escalators.
Escalators are made to walk on. It's to get you to the next floor, Faster.
*the irony is, they are seemingly always in a rush. Because they never wait for people to get out before it's their turn to get in.
And i never am. For always taking 1 train too "early".
**Pragmatism. It Can, make it so that you'll be perceived as frigid and arrrogant.
In prague people, except few tourists go on one side on escalator, its a norm. So another line is free to walk even faster. Solution found by self aligbement. People here dont care but at the same time keep checking others not to stand in a way. Thats something which fascinates me about society here.
Love this clip, but that escalator example is completely ridiculous. People us escalators just because everyone else does? Or one of many logical reasons they cant/wont/dont want to use the stairs instead?
I don't have the 'tism. I was born normal and abused by an angry alcoholic father. It made me weird and awkward. I always felt shitty and often unhappy. Made me stand out and made other kids not like me, so I didn't socialize normally and I rarely fit in with any group and I don't have the normal socializing and coping skills a person should have.
And yes, I got yelled at a LOT from K thru 12 by teachers and principals and other grown ups.
I do not fit in today, but not because I like being independent. I just can't. And it makes me sad and a little angry.
So based on the traditional definitions, I'm not a Sigma. I'm one of the other categories. I cant compete, so I'm not Alpha, Beta, or even Gamma. Gammas compete, they just fail a lot.
I think I might be an Omega.
You seem honest, unlike so many who seem obsessed with finding labels with which to justify or glorify themselves.
Ask yourself about time . Across cultures & religions & accepted history .
The more questions you have ,even without a lot of answers ...helps bring transparency to pointless paradigms & limits reactionary responses .
A sigma male knows if you wake up it's a good day. Even when the world s*** we still know we're alive it's a good day. And most people cannot look at the world that way. Holy Spirit of Humanity we love life and it drives us nuts to you humans don't realize this.
Can confirm. Cannot conform.

Well done. Actually you have the order of events wrong though. First we reject the norm. Then with "proper arguments" we will accept it if it makes sense. But it isn't the peferred outcome. First we will reject all norms and they have to fight to make it into our list of things we are willing to do.

So i am surprised about this stuff and how well defined we are crazy i felt that I kept everything under wraps im my own person but crazy to see you are all like me tho
I'ts smart to try and understand the function of a norm before skipping it. If it's hidden that's a sign there's something wrong with it. If you can understand it you can know when it applies. Often what's wrong with norms is not their existence but their over-application. If you are expected to conform without asking why then something is fishy.
Often it's not about 'non-comformity' often it's just logic and being sensible. If the escalator has a big queue, and no one is using the stairs, then why not use the stairs? It's better for you, others might follow you and then that'll free up the escaltor for those who might have no other option because they're old or disabled. It's not necessarily about being awkward and non-comformist or being seen to be different. Sometimes people are so blinkered in just following the herd, the obvious is overlooked.
I'd say I have characteristics of this trait but not all of them. Not sure if this ties in but I am on the autistic spectrum and my social skills are mediocre at best. Small talk is painful for me and I hate group think. One time at work one of the " cool people" came up with this lame idea that actually makes things harder. Everyone clapped like a seal when it was suggested, I instantly knew it would not work, so I did not clap. I've been called a D-bag and a A-hole at work for pointing out obvious things, as well as calling BS on a manager once. Some of my family gets on nerves, especially when they gas light me or apologize for a family members crappy behavior. Honesty is better than sugar coated BS any day, even if it comes at a price.
When I was much younger, I was a public servant for a few years. It wasn't a bad job. Easy, paid well, could see a bright future in it. But it just wasn't me. Public servants are all the same, they dress the same, think the same. To succeed you have to be one of ''them''.
I left and took up farming. I like working alone, doing my own thing, not giving a damn what others might think. I feel very comfortable following my instinct, I'm always right. I was even married once to a woman who's chatter was like a gossip magazine. I never say much myself unless it's important. I'm very good at solving mechanical problems, effortlessly, so I became a diesel mechanic by trade.
I love brilliant colours. I hate the white and various greys and silvers to black that everything seems to be these days. Especially cars and house interiors. I saw a flat grey Ferrari the other day. Why would you bother?
I don't care to be one of the mob. I'm comfortable standing apart alone. I don't like to draw attention to myself. If you don't notice me....good.
There are no absolutes. Language is dependent on current trends, just as the term ‘sigma’ is a crystallization of a large number of individuals with varied traits. And these varied trait characteristics (which vary wildly between people) have been subjected to the current trend of categorization as ‘sigma’ as though it is immutable and fixed.
Question: Given the traits specified as those inherent to ‘a sigma,’ would ‘a sigma’ adhere to this culturally enforced and limited classification system itself?
And does that make me ‘a sigma’ given that ‘a sigma’ is a current cultural classification that is impermanent and doesn’t exist?!

Until youtube, I didn't have a name for my personality type. I just knew that I often had a habit of pissing people off when I had good intentions, haha.
I must say, I have a theory that everyone in the world knows something I want to know. So I have to do Smalltalk in case I'm going to trigger the person I'm talking to to reveal an unknown fact. When I get something it's like Xmas to me & I'm over the moon. When I get nothing new I just feel dirty & wish I could stop myself. I don't look at being a sigma as great. I feel I have a personality disorder.
My small talk becomes interrogation and it ends up like Sherlock Holmes telling someone all these details about their lives that I deduced. It's cringey and people find it uncomfortable, so I have to dial it back.

I would suggest that there is no "true Sigma male" and many people exhibit a lot of the behaviors but not all.
I've been accused of being autistic and have Asperger's, but I don't think I am either one. I don't know what I am. I just know what I'm not. I'm okay at small talk, but I'd rather talk about something interesting and not just the weather.
I do have a limited social circle. Most people annoy me. But I often find myself wanting more connections with people and never seem to be able to get there.
I don't want to like this, it feels narcissistic, but it also resonates a lot.
I meditate at work 😂
I'm a sigma and I agree.
I've never heard of sigma males, but in watching this, I'm wondering if I am one.
Sigma males generally do not know who they are because they are not told for example. If you resonate it's possible. You become what you think about. Peace.
@@World-Leader-UK Thank you.
Sigma personality makes sense that why he thinks different from others always love his loneliness.
