Anybody can be a superheroThe group that the media calls real life superheroes ( RLSHs ) offer a “super” lifestyle for everyday people. Garish uniforms, colorful names and brilliant ideals inspire folks to step outside the ordinary. These steps can lead to involvement in crime prevention; combating hunger or promoting limitless worthy causes. Super lifestyles aren’t the exclusive province of so-called real life superheroes. Activists across the political spectrum and creative professionals use innovation and inspiration to enhance message impact.

Being “super” is a habit. Done consistently “super” persons routinely touch other lives. They reach out by first reaching within. This rationale prompts leaving personal comfort zones to create “super” people. This lifestyle doesn’t have one vocation or religion. Anyone, anywhere can do it. The price of admission is paying attention to potential opportunities to serve society. Instead of observing problems without taking action “super” people take ownership for providing solutions. Resolving matters for others becomes equal to resolution done for personal benefit. “Super” people are bridges to greater civic involvement. Their example prompts observers to get involved. They often shame skeptics into listening to the better angels of their nature.

Steadfast skeptics dismiss being “super” as a pipe dream. They recite endless lists of charities filling the roll as proof that things never change for the better. They’re right in a way. The alphabet soup of relief agencies haven’t permanently ended crime or poverty. They have ended some crime and poverty. The “super” mindset commits us to eating elephant-sized problems one benevolent bite at a time. That’s why marketing is all important.

Real life superheroes are obvious drum majors for this lifestyle. The rest of the parade includes people from all walks of life. Casting the net narrowly under serves public mobilization. Publicity generated by RLSHs catalyzes citizens to creatively engage their sphere of influence.  Service is the end result of the ” super” choice. Location and occupation are secondary to simply assisting. More people going above and beyond the ordinary promotes sanity; increases safety and offers opportunity.

Our world is where folks give up; Our world is someplace people choose harm over help. Our world seems to have too many problems and too few solutions.

This same world can also be incrementally changed by the daily choice to be ” super. ” What are YOU waiting for?
