Mainline titles are more focused (Emperor, for example), and then we use the spin-offs (Emperor Daddy, Emperor: The Art of War, Emperor: The Will to Power) to get really focused. So, focused ideas are very helpful with The Commander.
-
Ability to lead from any position in an organization. Not only from the top. Understanding that the showing real leadership comes from within. Not from a title.
-
A lot of gravitas. As much as in Emperor Daddy. The ability to command depends on how seriously people take you.
-
Extremely high courage and fearlessness. Pusillanimous cowards can’t command or lead.
- Cultivating strong self-leadership
- Finding and working toward fulfilling your purpose as a leader
- Working consistently on crystallizing your vision and expressing it with ease
- Leading by example
- Helping others discover their purpose
- Attracting people whose purpose (whether already found or not) aligns with your leadership purpose
- Facing your “enemy” with grace
- Turning your “enemy” into an ally by finding common purpose/interest
- Forging alliances with ease (financial, social, political, romantic, etc.)
- Listening to others and changing your mind when it truly serves the purpose
- Enhancing personal charm while maintaining a strong iron frame
- Spotting and dealing with “traitors” effectively
- Avoiding triggering people’s egos or complexes (when possible)
- Being ruthless only when absolutely necessary
- Being a man of your word, and using deception only as a last resort — when there is no other choice, certainty it won’t be detected, and it clearly serves the cause
- Stirring the right emotions in people so they side with you and your purpose
- Speaking to people’s secret cravings that align with your purpose in order to activate their support
- Seeing and helping people discover the best in themselves so they can contribute to fulfilling the purpose
- Maintaining total immunity to missteps and learning from them
- Practicing accountability
- Seeing through lies and manipulation tactics
- Debunking your “enemy’s” illusions when they are presented against you and your purpose
- Being flexible in switching between being a leader and being just another human being
- Mindfulness and love for humankind
I love the positive agression mindset I get from GLM:TC.
Yes, I realized after I asked Saint, that Commander is about decisiveness, but it’s about leading to victory.
It’s also a powerhouse of well power and leadership, that combined with strategy and function to achieve victory is an incredible combination
I see this too, originally commander was supposed to ‘Picard’ I believe -like Star Trek captian
Healthy tactical questioning is no a bad thing but more a clear sense of confidence and exuection on plan
I’d like to see Commander be strategic for victory, even if it’s only partially woven in. Love the idea of inspiring unwavering certainty in others.
Would be great to see commander have a -knowing the end or outcome clearly,
This is an awesome concept
Love this with the social power and leadership as well
This has so much potential for disaster hahaha. Without morality or the growth for that built into this sub, I don’t think people could handle this. Both in terms of ethics BUT also because of their own lack of clarity.
What I LOVE about GLM is that it rapidly evolves people due to its nature. Even people who don’t want/intend to use GLM for that specific purpose, it can’t help but evolve someone past what they could see normally. Because letting go, and detachment, release enormous amounds of energy and shift perspective. If Commander GLM had something similar but repurposed for a leadership function, it would be great.
A lot of what people are asking for her is actually in ASBR it seems to me.
Would love this
Torn here, love leadership towards one’s aim and purposes, and for something worth leading- a singular ity paradox resolution on that, and that would be fire. Desire, ambition, and one’s own aim in leadership, with service for other and greater cause.
Yes, Commander supporting decisive outcome, direction, and preliminary elements (essences) of strategy
Yes and this can be part of Aura too, but most people are NOT comfortable with that level of being in charge and attention being recieved, there would have to be scripting to be comfortable at that level. It also sucks when people go limp because their waiting on direction, so if there is an aura related to that and the ability to toggle between commanding attention (ready to give orders) vs. people fully engaged and bringing their own leadership would be awesome
Also, as far as physical shifting is concerned, it is very energy-intensive. The body language and unwavering ability of a commander is not necessarily physical shifting. I’d be down for some light physical shifting, but nothign that would be too draining or take away from the rest of the script.
Same, I also would love to see the new commander have whatever scripting in Khan and ROW that helps me feel I can play at the biggest level/stage possible. ASBR has it a smidge, but Khan it shouts out like crazy, and ROW it feels like it’s my natural destiny in real time to move towards playing at the biggest level possible.
I can imagine that every title from now on will be based on the alchemical blueprint applied to H:TLTB. In the case of GLM:The Commander it would look like this, perhaps:
Element | Inner Aspect | Description | Outer Aspect | Description |
---|---|---|---|---|
Earth | Groundedness | Being strong in your body, self-leadership, and a deep, “visceral” connection to your purpose | Non-reactivity | An iron frame, responding to people and circumstances instead of merely reacting |
Water | Stillness | Emotional self-regulation | Adaptability | Cognitive empathy and care for your followers’ physical and emotional well-being |
Air | Clarity | Knowing your purpose and filtering out distractions | Transparency | Alignment of feeling, thought, word, and action |
Fire | Drive | Passion fueling actions toward realizing your purpose as a leader | Boldness | Taking action aligned with your leadership purpose without doubt, fear, or second-guessing |
Anything Results Speaking (Moving the needle) related. One to Many setting. Professional Speaking, Leading 10000s, and more… is what I have tried the current GLM:TC for. And no other sub even comes close. I’d want it to be a sub that anyone can run and become a professional speaker who can speak to 1000s effortlessly, keep them glued, & convert >50%.
That’s how I see a commander today. The power to influence the world & monetise attention (offline or online). After all, we are deep in the attention economy.
Something of True Sell or Power Talk module?
True Sell works well, but GLM:TC + True Sell is unmatched. I strongly believe there must be one really good title for this job - Influencing Thousands from a Stage - LIVE. As the dynamism requires more the persuasion - it is a mixture of StoryTelling (Daredevil), Raw Sales & On Stage Presence.
Not to mention, a level of perfection as the tiniest mistakes can be amplified.
GLM: TC Covers the Presence & True Sell covers the Raw Persuasion. Imagine a title that combines these two & the art of storytelling. Specifically tailormade for this purpose.
In Entrepreneurship & Career, the ones who can influence many people effectively (hypnotism - there are elements of that in really good persuasion, seducation and more… ethically) attract a much higher price.
And, monetising the Attention Economy. Look at Andy Harrington (to get an idea of what I’m talking about).
Wouldn’t that go better with the Stark or true social line of product?
I feel like we’re mixing the cards here. Doesn’t mean Commander won’t help with it, but I think it needs to be closer to the line of product Godlike masculinity.
Thoughts…
Once upon a time, Commander was a booster. Used to be used (sorry for
tautology) for a short period of time to boost commanding presence, vibe and etc.
Its tricky to make new GLM: TC because general features are now implemented in new GLM.
Basic features for newer titles are:
Presence
Tungsten Frame
Powerful Auras
Being a Commander for 24/7/365 sounds to me like a kind of pathology so obviously some other new ideas about GLM:TC should be implemented.
What if GLM:TC be a total “Power Over One’s Life”? To have power over own habits, emotions? Power over own values (living life according own values), being completely honest (radical honesty) over ones decisions, choices?
Completely own your own life (sorry again, for tautology). Life is not happening to you - you creating your life.
Purge of hypocrisy, purge of weakness, being total true to ones core values?
GLM: TC can be harsh sub… be a Truth Revealer.
You know, “start with youself” if you a true “Commander Of Your Own Self & Life” you can have more chances to influence people not but being the “loudest monkey” but because of your true, aligned presence with your core.
Align all of your life according to your values. Interrupt “Groundhog day” syndrome. Make a real change in your life… Take all the resources of your subconscious to really change your life to best version of it.
Being your “Own Commander”, based not on your internal father who can throw a chair on to you but become best Father for yourself (healing internal commanding figures).
Commander from Inside Out… Presence, Commanding Vibe that has real value and not mocking somebody else. Real respect for your core.
Ah, yes! Just imagine if guys (and girls) running new GLM: TC can say that for the first time in their lives they feel deep respect for themselves and they feel that have real value to give something to the world.
Trusting yourself and induce trust in people, so they can follow you because its obviously RIGHT. This requires honesty with one self first.
World is already filled with dummies.
We really need Commanders that are aligned with their core, with their truth, that are completely honest with themselves.
Thats just a few thoughts…
Truth without love is violence.
More thoughts lately…
The conversation and ideas here are great. Keep 'em coming. Here’s a method that could help with your ideation:
What modules would you include in a New GLM custom to give it even more of a “commanding” vibe? You can use this thought experiment to ground any abstract ideas into something concrete. Then, you can explain why you chose those modules thematically, which gives us an idea of what the people are asking for.
Nono, not at all. I have run ASBR but it did not help. The issue with ASBR is that, it helps a load with thinking and ideation and everything to build an absolutely amazing product BUT it does not translate well into Professional Speaking. Because, while many things aid in it (the fame, the aura, not too dominant), when we speak we want things to flow. The best professional speakers do not remember or memorise their content. They let it flow from their subconscious. This is very different than when we actively think, because when we are thinking, we can think rapidly and many different things at once. But, when speaking, our focus must be on the message.
So, with ASBR, I actually found myself streaming into different chains of thought in the middle of speaking. It works great for pitching, and 1-On-1 but in a One to Many settings we gotta be spontaneous and be so present, that it is not raw intelligence but elements of Daredevil and True Social that shines through.
GLM TC is extremely good at being so in the moment and flowing. And, the power and status aura works really well. I could actually lose myself into the moment & have far lesser distractions going on in my mind.
Here (will send in a while) is a Custom that I’m constructing for this very purpose. Note: there are 4+ cores. But, I think it captures the jigsaw pieces that professional speakers would greatly benefit from.
So elements to structure our ideas when commanding could do the job then
I don’t think it’s that simple, but that definitely is an element to it.
Now, we also want an outrageous amount of trust that we will deliver what we know and change the audience’s beliefs. This is honestly the toughest part.
The solution to this is focusing entirely on the audience’s transformation. Essentially being selfless. If there is zero focus on the way I am moving, the way I am walking, the way my hair is looking, then I will do a spectacular job.
See, here, it is not about applause. It is about change.
Think Tony Robbins.
It’s an art and a science unlike any other skill, because one has to do things opposite to how we normally are as humans.
It is going to need enhanced Rallying scripting, some Reality bubbles, the communication element to be able to build a base on the spot by pulling them into a reality bubble based on ethical and authentic principles. Whatever is in the New Wanted for its online effect.
Commander Online
The Art of Rallying
So the Commander effect can be online and offline and have extreme coverage.
Definitely cater a variety of solutions perhaps akin to NRICH and building and maintaining a following based off adapting to market insight, the Perfect Avatar, etc. Though in the vision of an updated GLM:C. I think that will hit hard where anyone can don this with enough foundation and transform it in many directions.
Fenrir and Fearsome.
Tailored to the sub, to repel malicious people. I´d like my presence to be commanding in a way that not only fosters trust and inspires my people, but also deterrs anyone that harbors hostile intent, leading them to avoid me, and by extension everyone in my care.
I know all masculine titles develope this in a way, but I think it´d fit nicely in The Commander.
Can you expand what you mean by “rallying” here?
My understanding is like, picking yourself up after you’ve fallen, but I suspect you might have something else in mind, and I’m super interested to hear more, as just the module name “The Art of Rallying” sounds epic
So in the GLM:C copy it mentions rallying supporters and followers. I mean the context of a campaign, but for gathering supporters and moving them into a state of action towards objectives:
The Art of Rallying or The Art of Building a Movement
If it’s built off the framework of the current, recently updated GLM, this can support building healthy communities and ensure the integrity of those movements remain intact without veering. Thus giving a movement and purpose to that leadership that’s built in GLM, in general.
Great ideas man!
An alternative title for it could be The Campaigner, it building from and bouncing of titles like ASBR and HoM, depending on the exact individual goals and approach.
