Me and Miles Killebrew were undergrad engineers who played a sport as student athletes. This means we got yelled at sometimes and did not get 100% all-As. Engineering classes are hard.
This truth forms the basis for my hobby: I am the Alpha Male Whisperer.
Here are some tips if you want to do well as a student athlete who goes pro. Miles went pro in “football”. I went pro as a First Round Draft Pick at a Fortune 100 Company, Nalco
## Tip Number ONE ##
Takes notes by putting pen to paper. Nothing slows down a fast talking alpha male than when you take your pen from paper, comma raise your pen carrying hand, and say CAN YOU REPEAT THAT.
I am taking paper notes at a school I do not attend.

I am the Alpha Male Whisperer bc I sit in the front row and take notes like a #NerdNation justinkan.com/three-stories pando.com/2015/10/15/sec…

## Tip Number TWO ##
SIT in the front row.
Andrew Luck sat in the front row. He was also a student athlete that played football. Alpha males can be charmed by location of where you plop your 222 pound, 6’5″ ass.

Cesar Milan’s sequel should be “Alpha Male Whisperer” #sequelToABook I didn’t write …tstanfordbusinessschool.wordpress.com/2011/11/22/7-m…

## Tip Number THREE ##
COUNTERINTUITIVE- alpha males are going to be dicks to us because they want to network with alpha males rising. For example, Miles Killebrew and when he was networking with the Detroit Lions. They gave him a “hardship interview”. Investment banks do this too.
Tip: get fortitude.
Tip. Don’t get flustered.
Tip: Don’t cry on the outside even though you’re crying on the inside.
Tip: Don’t go home and curl up in a ball. Open up your heart chakra and let those critical words pour in. Then whip out your Peets moleskin, and say with a strait face, “can you repeat and expand that.“

Reminds me of the PG essay: power of the margins. Reminds me of Coach: Winners inside the Losers Bracket #ch5/#ch11 twitter.com/jowyang/status…

After a back injury, this student athlete redirected her energy into entrepreneurship. Lots of fortitude in the notes I took when I sat front row at Stanford Entrepreneurship Week https://bit.ly/LFalzone710

## Tip Number FIVE ##
old people, aka DINOSAURS need to be faxed, smoke signaled, telephone-talked-to, etc.
Back when I was a superstar, I used to make aspiring prepreneurs and pre Entrepreneurs meet and do meeting at Ramona’s Nails. Such an alpha male move.
