About Alpha, Beta, & Omega

If you’ve been on the internet in the past 5 years, you’ve probably heard the terms “alpha,” “beta,” and “omega,” and probably even a few others. These refer to a few different things, but mostly they’re personality types, particularly how a person acts around others. Here’s a quick rundown:

Alphas are the top dogs, leaders of the pack. They’re confident, independent, and ambitious. If they can dream it, they know they can do it, and they won’t stop until it’s done. Some say they’re toxic or dominating, but a true alpha leads by example, and when they rise, they bring everyone else up with them.

Betas are the pillars of any community. They’re intuitive, sensitive, and flexible. They take things as they come and adapt to any situation, finding the best solutions and solving any problem. In a social setting, they’re the grease that keeps the gears turning, and which keeps everyone happy. Some say they’re submissive or lower in rank, but they actually just know that power isn’t everything.

Omegas are the odd ones out, and that’s a good thing. They don’t follow anyone’s lead, and instead they do their own thing and forge their own path. They’re open-minded and curious, and spend their time learning about other people and other ways of life, always building their own identities. Some say they’re unpredictable or wild, but they work by their own logic, and they’re okay with experimenting.

As a final note, it’s important to remember that the whole idea of alphas, betas, omegas, and other roles are more of a trend than actual science. It’s fun to think about what role you take, but be wary of anyone who uses these trendy hierarchies to justify toxic behavior.
