Everyone has a genius in them. A superpower. Something that lights them up.

For most of it, it’s a little thing or two. Or three. Maybe we don’t even notice, other than the extra burst of delight, energy, or confidence that shows up when we’re in that groove.

Fortune smiles on those who take note of their gifts. The reward for leaning into your powers isn’t so much the results that accrue; it’s the satisfaction of working a muscle that wants the work.

Small powers become superpowers in that way. Call on them, and they’ll answer you back. The dialog between you and your powers builds strength but also demands for your strength. People will want you around and to be around you.

Honor your powers, however small you find them. With care and feeding, they won’t stay small for long.
