Growing up, Superman was my favorite superhero.

I’m talking about George Reeves.

• Not Christopher Reeve
• Or Dean Cain
• Or any of those who followed

It was an era of black and white TV and, in retrospect, comical special effects. But, to a child, Superman’s powers mesmerized.

How would those superhero powers translate into business?

Power #1 – Flying

Who wouldn’t want flying powers? As a child, I had a recurring dream of flying. I told you I loved Superman. Imagine what you could do with your business if you had the power of flight.

• You could make a really cool entrance to a networking event
• You could fly above any business situation and spot trouble ahead
• You’d never have to deal with rush hour again – oh wait, that’s called freelancing

Power #2 – Speed

Faster than a speeding bullet, you would beat all competition to the finish.

• You’d be the first in line every time
• You’d burn up the keyboard with your speedy text
• You’d have speedy answers and faster results

Power #3 – X-ray Vision

Talk about seeing all the solutions. You’d be a walking, mobile MRI for businesses.

• You’d see through every gimmick
• No closed door could shield industry secrets
• You’d get to the source of every problem

Power #4 – Heat Vision

Not only can you see through anything, but you can fry circuits with your eyes, too. Oh, be still, little devil sitting on my shoulder – ah, the possibilities.

• You could be your own energy source and never need another charger
• You’d laser in on every problem and destroy the competition
• You’d snuff out global warming (in case you worry about my use of power)
• And you’d drop spammers in their tracks

Power #5 – Super Hearing

Baby boomers rejoice. All those years of old time rock-n-roll would not take their toll.

• You’d hear conversations across a crowded business event
• While your x-ray vision works on the closed door, your super hearing tunes in
• You’d hear the mumbled musings of geniuses at work

Dream or Fantasy

Sometimes we think of business goals as a dream, or even fantasy.

Lest you think all of this is just a dream, consider this quote from psychologist, Carl Jung, who knew a thing or two about dream analysis.

“All the works of man have their origin in creative fantasy. What right have we then to depreciate imagination?”

Carl Jung

Could happen, right?

• Who is your favorite superhero?
• What superhero powers do you wish you had?
• How would you use them for your business?
