Main Idea Thread -- Godlike Masculinity: The Commander

What was your experience?

Very excited too :wink: Mainly because of these messages. I loooove GLM, it’s a life changing sub and honestly, I’d almost make it mendatoy for men to run the new GLM.

One of the thing I’ve been looking to have as a feeling while on GLM is what will be present in “the commander”, and it makes me very Excited! I’m a naturally “inactive” or laid-back guy, the Khan feeling is something I really enjoy in my life, and here it is :

There are a lot of commanders who are not jacked but rather slim, Erwin from Attack on Titan comes to mind.

It’s not about being jacked it’s about body language and presence.

But yes I agree being jacked increase body language and presence but I doing think we need physical shifting outside of body language in The Commander, we can just lift some weights :wink:

Edit: I do agree that some physical shifting to look more commanding may be useful, but I still think aura, presence and body language is more important.

well…

Maybe workout discipline,
actual physical shifting is still not working 100 for me so workout discipline maybe.

We need the choice of fluidity in both dominance or alignment. With the direction things are headed, groups and organizations are wanting more alignment. I can see it in the corporate language change and even subliminal copy refacing. Beneath the new polish of those narratives and the promise of the product being refreshing, new and improved, sleek, there seems to be a decisive shift towards alignment in social and community dynamics, which is good. Though I also think the ones that have been running these hard edge subliminals like Emperor and Khan for years, even longer than when I got here, would love to have those options going forward. In GLM: The Commander.

If you want to understand more what I mean, when you think of the reception of new GLM vs the old GLM from the product copy perspective, it was jarring to a few, as I assume that group was expecting more “new and improved,” rather than a complete reimagining. That one thing here that has to stick is the dominance, though I think it will take a refreshing tone, that’s more warm like what was seen in Emperor Daddy, since it had the “Richard Branson”-esque charm. The flexibility to go from protector’s authority to party host to tribal chief to whatever authoritative role is necessary. Context dependent, consciously shiftable authority.

Initially, I started with full loops. But I immediately noted that people were not respecting me when I talk. I have some trouble with my breath support and that sometimes causes the volume of my voice to be low. I noticed people just cutting me off and talking louder than me. This got me so pissed that started shouting and getting angry.

But on the positive side, after a few weeks I started to notice more respect from people. People giving me less flack.

This is also the title that convinced me that using microloops might be useful sometimes.

I love Jocko’s Extreme Ownership work. To me this is the essence of true commanding and leadership. I would highly recommend, at the very least, having a lot of ownership scripting in this. As someone who spent eight years in the military and who has seen all kinds of terrible leadership, those who demonstrated real ownership were always the best leaders and commanders.

I’ve been thinking, the original commander was scripted partly as a “command yourself” sort of subliminal.

That part regarding extreme ownership reminds me of that.

OG commander had inner circle. Would the new version got inner circle updated still?

About leadership,
Someone died in my neighbourhood so on same day we went to visit the family they were all sad we were all sad and you could see the family left (6 people, oldest 50yo, youngest 22 yo0) were` sad and desperate and lost.

Then that other neighbourrgh came in slowly spoke in a voice that came out both soft and firm and say something like we’re all sad, and to the family he said ok thats how we gonna do it. And he started to tell everybody what to do, like morgue, cemetary, people to call. And it was the perfect thing to do at that moment, that guy stepped in talked when nobody was then all he said was the right thing to say and he laid out what made so much sense to do. then the family said ok and it was like what he said helped them to wake up and do what needed to be done at that moment for their mother who died. That guy took charge and led and it was so natural for everyone to follow. The more I think about this guy it is like he always know what to do, even if he is in a new situation. like a real commander.

What a perfect image for what I see as a real commander, too. Thanks for sharing that story!

The gravitas and (broadened) protector scripting from Emp:D could be a good addition.

I suspect GLM:C will come with a lot of tools (especially aura & rhetorical ones) to get people moving. Stuff like curating the options, social framing, being laser focused on a goal and bringing it back to it. Like the focus of E:E.

Reflecting on it: The sharp focus on a greater goal and the conversational framing of it as the key aspect could be a good element. It is a clear reference, personal sensitivities (implicitly) always take a bit of a backseat.

Most definitely. Every good commander needs good allies.

I’m thinking about the drive and desire from Hero St4.

Also, vitality, vitality and vitality! Something in Emperor Daddy’s energy scripting, something in The Beast Unleashed. Probably also some unique scripting tailored to Commander?

Goal is not to make Commander into a workout program, but if we talk about “drive”, vitality needs to be cranked up to the max!

Quickly, I’m thinking : Synergy: Preordained Vitality, Inner Gasoline, Khan Black, Energetic Development XI (I’ve felt it work well for my energy levels), Inner Blaze.

EDIT : I’ve never tryed AEON, but since Hero St4 definitly have some powerful self expression, passion and drive scripting that could be included in Commander, I believe AEON also have some interesting energy scripting that could be tailored to a “masculine drive” type of effect.

Leading by example could be a good aspect for GLM:C especially with social stuff. In newly gathered groups rituals and social contracts are often established by the first person doing “it”, like greeting, paying for the first round etc. This would help GLM:C to shape the group and its direction.

And it would help with the aura and building rapport especially if the social situation is a bit unclear. The others will often just mimic C (who is greeted first and how at a gathering etc.), to not f*** it up. But C has to be first, decisive and needs a really good pokerface.
