If you had superpowers, what will you do with them?
Superpowers! what comes to mind when you hear that? The ability to fly, run super fast, be invisible? perhaps Superman,Aquaman,The Flash or maybe Spiderman. If you had superpowers, what will you do with them? this question was asked to a group of people and these are some answers they gave:
“If I were a superhero, my power would be the ability to control time. With my power, I would be able to stop, reverse, slow down and speed up time whenever I pleased. Having control of time would give me control of any situation, whether it involves me or not.”
“One of the first ways I would utilize my superpower would be to make my life easier.”
“If I had a superpower, it would be to be able to fly and be invisible. I would want to fly because I could leave school and nobody would find me. Also, I could fly with the pretty planes.”
“My superpower would be to turn invisible that way I could go through doors and not need a key. Also friends won’t find me when I play hide and seek and I’ll be really good at it.”
No doubt you have your own plans as to how you will use your superpower if gifted one. As a Software Developer, you already have superpowers! No, It isn’t the ability to fly or move objects with your hands, It is the ability to build, design, and create anything you want. It is the ability to CODE!. Superman can fly and move objects, Aquaman controls water, The Flash runs super fast, you can CODE! ooh yes!, coding is a superpower.
Superman can fly, Aquaman can control water, The Flash can run super fast, you can CODE! ooh yes!, coding is a superpower.
The ability to build, design, and create anything you want is truly unique. It’s a magical feeling that is hard to describe. You feel a sense of pride and confidence combined with an insatiable hunger to use your ability. You feel a marvelous sense of accomplishment when you do. Coding combines the left and right sides of the brain because it harnesses your visual/art skills and couples them with your logic/thinking skills. And makes you more like an artist finishing a masterpiece. There is no feeling like it.
How will you use your superpower?
Take a look at Spiderman, Superman, Wonderwoman, Aquaman, Flash, what do they have in common? they helped people, they made efforts to make life easier for those around them. As a Software Developer you have a superpower, how will you use it? create software that has a major impact on those around you and the world in general.
Having Superpowers is one thing, using them is yet another. Superman isn’t a Superhero because he sat and did nothing with his abilities, no! he is a superhero because he used his abilities for good. As a developer learn to create! It doesn’t end with the codes, it begins with making an impact with the codes.
Do not just learn to code, learn to create. It doesn’t end with the codes, it begins with making an impact with the codes.
BE A SUPERHERO!
