I was deeply addicted to this superhero fantasy stories right from my childhood, I was mad about Spiderman, Ironman and my greatest hero Superman.
The recent addition is the great hulk, but setting aside their superhero strength they are just ordinary beings like every one of us with their faults and love problems as such.
Leaving their beautiful masks aside they too have been denied, rejected in their day to day life, you can imagine our hero Peter Parker(a.k.a spidey) being rejected continuously by Mary Jane and the amount of work he needed to put through his fear of rejection and express his love for her.
I can’t imagine how much Clark Kent loves his Lois Lane, but as Superman, everything is possible but not as Clark Kent.
I really know many of us do associate these fantasy heroes to our life stories, we see that they are just imaginary beings but a significant number of lessons can be learned after all the visual effects have passed in front of our eyes.
We need to understand that all become superheroes at some point in their lives, every person who is willing to put some effort into the happiness of others is a real superhero. I learned a great deal of personality development lessons from these heroes, in general, more than referring to the self-development books available at the market.
The list of things I learned would be generally endless, but some has highly influenced me in all facets of my life.
Humility is the hallmark of great power
I know everyone will be thinking about the most unforgettable lines in Spiderman movie “ with great power comes great responsibility”, but I am not going to refer these. Spidey has a massive weight on his shoulders to save the world, but he did the job of even delivering pizzas.
If I had these powers, I would have done What Mr.Stark did. He informed the world that he is Ironman and would have lived a life of Publicity. Spidey never did choose the life of publicity instead he wanted a life of humility and an ordinary life with day to day responsibilities.
He worked very hard in his school, he struggled to make his love life better, all in the middle of his tumultuous task of saving the world. We too need to learn the art of humility and being humble.
With Ego, you lose the clarity of your mind
Next comes my favourite IRONMAN, I really want to be like him, he has the looks, the charm, the coolness, lots of money, the name, the fame, merely the idol of my life.
Whatever he does is super stylish but with great talent comes excellent EGO and the dire need to prove you are better than others.
Sometimes we need Shield agents like Black widow and Nick fury to remind us how responsible we need to be, rather than being obsessed with our self.
With EGO we forget who we are, sometimes we need a setback in life to make sure we are on the correct path. Our mind tries always to indicate that we are more significant than others but many times listening to our heart can really bring happiness. Set your EGO aside and look at World as it is!
You really need a team to save the world
No matter how powerful we are, great teams are required to do the task. In life no matter how much name and fame we reach, we can do wonders only if stand together. This kind of teamwork is not only Evident in Avengers and Justice League, but we as humans cannot be alone and being alone is also such a misery.
Even the greatest Ego maniacs need someone to love them. Try to understand the effect of teamwork in every situation of your life, be it family or workplace, create great teams and look at the amount of success it can produce. Building great friendships is the keystone to a happy and fulfilled life.
Even the most Powerful can have a weakness
No superhero is without fault, the greatest and the most potent Superman can be killed by a small stone of Kryptonite. We all have weakness and acknowledging our weakness can make us understand our greatest strengths.
Today one may be a millionaire, but nobody knows what life has decided for each one of us. We need to stop looking down at people weaker than us. We all need to understand that everyone is vulnerable in some areas and always trying to prove our strength with the weakest is detrimental to our character.
Make the World a Better Place
When Flash asked Batman, what was his strength? He gave a phenomenal reply” Being Rich is my Power”.
Bruce Wayne as Batman would have bought many anti-social Elements to Justice and thereby helped the citizens of Gotham city, we need not travel in our cars every night behind every Joker, but we can help someone who is in dire need of our services.
Some simple contribution to people affected by Floods, doing some volunteer works to people whenever we can, Everyone can make the World a better place.
Now, who is the next Super Hero!!
Thanks for the read and have a wonderful life!!!
