The word superhero in the 21st century is more than just a word. It’s a feeling, an emotion for most of the millennial around the world. Though they were brought to life in the 20th century, they are more alive in this era than ever before. What seems to be just some kind of weird, abnormal imagination or was just merely fun, today has emerged globally in ways that nobody ever thought.

I am a huge superhero fan. I believe in some of the values that get shared to us via the story. I am a DC comics fan. Not that hardcore that I will know everyone about them, but I know a few and know them well. Every character has its unique story, something valuable to share.

But of all the superheroes, the one without powers rule the world with the most intensity. Because at last, they show us a hope that how much we are capable of doing the unimaginable things, that we don’t even give much thought to it. These superheroes are the best example of what human beings can achieve through intense training, practice, and consistency. It shows us how much we can achieve if we take a good count of action if we take certain efforts we can achieve these things as well.

It always feels better for a moment and after the certain point in life when the reality hits, we just give up on them and why not? It is merely just someone’s imagination. Even if we try to achieve or just take some actions it soon gets into the pretty negative outlook of ourselves. Thus, we stop right there and do the things that we need to or the things that are easy and even in more sense that aligned lot more with the reality that we perceive.

The interesting things we can all learn from these superheroes without powers it’s not their skills, not their achievement, not their crazy and almost lunatic skills but rather their willingness to do anything and everything, the way they focus on always changing and improving things around themselves. The way they do the things are not repetitive but challenging. Its what always makes us grow, its all that makes us human truly to achieve great things we are capable of.

Life is not just 9–5 work. It has much more meaning to it. We must all learn in order to be the best of ourselves that we can be. Bruce Wayne(Batman) had failed. Oliver Queen(Green Arrow) has failed. But they always rise up against all the odds that stand in their ways. Yup, they are billionaires, but the things they do can be done by anyone, not like becoming a vigilante, there’s no need for it. But attention to detail, the focus, calmness, concentration and insurmountable willingness that resides in them in all odds when other heroes with powers just get clumsy. (I don’t know a better word).

We all fail to do the things we love the most and we are drawn towards those things that do us more harm than good. It’s better to live a single day with the best of ourselves rather than be the one we are not. The hundred days of doing things will never be much worth of a single day of fully lifelike living. Be breathing at the moment we are given. Always try to be the best ourselves. We are the captain of our own ship, in an ocean where seems to be no land of our dreams near to us. But our guts, if believed can navigate us like a compass to our island.

Thanks for Reading.
