Achieving Human Superpowers with Good Health

My oldest, Beckett, asked me a couple weeks back, "If you could choose one superpower Dad, what would it be?" Automatically, my brain navigates to all the known powers of the infamous fiction hero's of our age: invincibility, invisibility, flight, super punches, super speed, read minds etc. etc. All would be super amazing, if possible; unfortunately, being a human, the likelihood of gaining one of these superpowers is an impossibility.

But, hope exists for us mere humans. We simply reclassify superpowers to 'human' superpowers. Personally, I live my life with priorities centered around God, Family and Good Work. Now, the next question I ask myself is how can I optimize these priorities by my character? Fundamentally, this all goes back to health for me...and I would think many humans can logically deduce health as a priority because the absence of health (TRUE HEALTH) is far from our human our goal of reaching our human superpowers; and really is a life of closed doors and limited possibilities.

Good Health, is the lynchpin of human superpowers. I am not saying you are not a good person if you are unhealthy; I am just saying it is hard to be 100% who you are meant to be as a human when you feel like crap! Circling back to the conversation I had with my son about what superpower I would choose: I chose being 100% present in the moment I am in. Plugging this into my priority hierarchy fully optimizes all of them; let me show you how!

God, who is outside of space and time, sees and operates all of His creation in a moment (this is for our human understanding to somehow understand the infinite capabilities of God). I can increase my relationship with God by approaching life in moments because God operates in a timeless matter, so the closer I can 'just be in the moment' the closer I am to God.

Family, all who I love most, exponentially increases in my life when I am 'all there/their' with them. The more I listen and am not thinking about the other elements in my life I cannot control in that MOMENT the more our connection of love, joy and truth grows with them.

Good Work, we are meant to give and labor our time through this short life. By being 100% present as I labor my appreciation for selflessness increases and I realize how lucky I am free to choose what I do. We are so blessed to have this ability.

As I struggle being 100% present in the moment, which I continually do, what brings we peace is tracing the root solution back to GOOD HEALTH. Navigating the complexities of life is a challenge, but you can do it. It is hard, and that is okay. The more you make life happen for you vs letting life happen to you, doors will open and your human superpowers will be at your fingertips!
