In case you’re just joining me, welcome to my blog. I appreciate you stopping by, and I’d like to tell you why I decided to write a book on Super Heroes…As kids many of us knew we were going to grow up and change the world, be something spectacular, become some sort of Hero. That was our destiny, we couldn’t go wrong.
Then we got busy and raised families and went to school and earned a living and most of the time we forgot about our lofty goals of changing the world. But the world still needs changing. And the great thing most of us have figured out is we change things little by little, one small act of understanding or tolerance, one unique idea or act of courage. SOS’s I call them, the Series of Small Successes.
And so in order to change a culture, change morale, change our attitude on life, quit stressing or start living fully, we need to be the ones to model these super powers. We can no longer wait for anyone else to get smart enough or passionate enough to take over and create change, it’s up to us. A young boy named Nicosi Johnson once said we must do what we can, with what we’ve got, where we are, right now. So we begin by realizing everything is created in a mental world first, and then it becomes physical. As true life Super Heroes we can create the change that is needed, simply by using the powers we already possess. And my book makes it easy for us to remember what we know and how to use it to create powerful and lasting change.
For example, what do you want to be remembered for? Is it the car you drive, the cleanliness of your desk or your tennis score? Or do you want to be remembered for those you helped, how you impacted someone’s life in a way no one else could?
Each power is unique and helps us create change in specific areas. One power is Attitude, the ability to transform our lives just by how we think and where we put our focus. Then there’s Contagious Courage that helps us handle change and transition. Elasticity is the power to help us stretch and adapt while Magnetism helps us draw others to us and build trust and relationships. Omnilinguistics is the power to understand what others need and “speak” their language and Serendicity is the power to attract opportunities. The power X-ray Vision helps us see through the problem to the potential in a situation, and Force Field helps us reflect away anger and utilize forgiveness. My last two powers are Invisibility, the ability to lead by staying in the background and helping make others powerful, and Spontaneous Combustion, the ability to fire up and motivate others to excellence.
I hope you’ll take time to look at all your powers, think about which ones could use a bit of polishing up and which ones you already use brilliantly. And I would love to hear your nominations for future Super Heroes. These are the people who are already using one of the powers in an exemplary way; making a difference in your life. Every nominee gets a Super Hero button to wear (and give away) and every winner receives a copy of my book.
Thanks again for stopping by.
