Real Life Superheroes
We can’t fly and we don’t have X-ray vision. Being a real-life superhero is about finding your strength and using it to do good, be that physical, mental or positive values (empathy,
compassion, love). Superheroes want to do good for others. They have
initiative, they have confidence in their abilities and they usually believe that they can accomplish anything that they
set out to do. The voice in their head is telling them that they can do it!
Think
What superhero do you want to be?
Who is your enemy - your Inner Chimp? Name it e.g. doubt, impatience, short attention span etc.
Challenge Think about what your superhero self would be saying to you when you are facing a new challenge.
Using your worksheet from before, make a list of all the different phrases that he or she would use to encourage you.
“ A hero is an ordinary individual who finds strength to persevere and endure in spite of overwhelming obstacles.”
Christopher Reeve
