MAINTAINING YOUR SUPER!

Maintaining your super is the lifelong challenge after finding it.
We’ll never know if Dr. King would have retired from advocacy had lived to senior citizenship.
Today’s creative activist juggles motivational; financial and results-oriented dilemmas that can mercilessly exstinguish ones super.
My approach is assessing where I’m at in terms of zeal and resources and operate within those parameters.
I’ve embedded the real life superhero ( RLSH )/extreme altruist ( X ALT ) persona into everyday life.
Most folks here call me ” Black “; short for my ” Capt. Black ” brand name. It gained some local noteriety when I became coordinator for Occupy NOLA’s Community Patrol shortly before our well-publicized eviction from Duncan Plaza across from New Orleans City Hall.
The resulting media exposure further introduced the RLSH/X ALT as participant in ongoing major news as opposed to the occasional special interest piece.
Maintaining my super means further embedding creative activism in our daily lives as a norm- not an exception.

Staying "Super!"

Staying “super” requires infinite dedication. The ” real life ” in this media label ” real life superhero ” ( RLSH ) can take the wind out of your sails.
My sails have their share of real life holes shot in them. Vision keeps them hoisted even when motivation is spent and worse, disillusionment creeps in.
Staying “super” is simply holding onto your belief in your higher self and calling. The minute you relinquish either, you plummet downward into the ordinary- a hell from which there is little hope of escape.
Creative activists have to balance real life issues with serving larger-than-life inspiration. To say this can become difficult is an understatement.
We can stay “super” by giving ourselves time to recharge. Too much do goodling can be as injurious as too much troublemaking. Pacing ourselves is key in these situations.
Everyone has a breaking point, even activists busy saving their little part of the world. Ignoring various stressors can have catastrophic consequences.
That’s why staying “super” requires finesse and foresight. Blindly charging full speed without pause ahead invites burn out.
It’s not criminal to admit when you need to chill for a while.
in fact, it’s central to staying “super.”
