This trait is vitally important because it will affect every decision you make in your life. To gain more confidence, start setting goals in your life. Once you knock this goal out of the park, you can then work on others. Alpha males are by nature leaders of others. It simply isn’t good enough to be great yourself, you must encourage others to reach their full potential as well. Developing leadership skills is a sure-fire way to become more Alpha. On top of that, a true alpha is always seeking to learn and better themselves—you can't do that if you already think you're better at everything. No matter how much you know, there's always room to learn something. If you're working to become an alpha, this is one area where you can "fake it till you make it."
