Your Own Extended Universe

We have all gone superhero mad.

Look at your local cinema listings for proof.

Marvel and DC are empire building on a silver screen near you.

Every character has an origin movie, every player has a team to join.

Transformers is doing this.

Star Wars is doing this.

James Bond is planning on doing this.

So can you.

I'm serious.

Let's make your very own extended universe too.

The social media cameras are already on you tracking your daily progress and sharing your updates (or lack of them) with a very receptive but ultimately self absorbed audience.

But the cameras are still 'on you'.

More cameras can be if you want them to be too.

Supposing you considered everything up to date to be part of your 'origin story'.

That means the equivalent of being bitten by a radioactive spider, given a super-soldier serum, inventing a suit of battle armour etc.

Supposing that your origin story wasn't a modern equivalent of the Norse Gods and instead was about real practical things and daily life adventures.

Let's face it...

Being a superhero will only get you killed eventually, so lets take life down a few danger levels and instead, lets make it all about the things which YOU deem to be 'special'.

• You have a job.
• You have a family.
• You have friends.
• You have history.

Now lets extend your universe to become even more challenging and exciting.

Add a new hobby (martial arts, gym, painting, learning a language, life coaching, whatever) make that your challenge and daily obsession.

Good days and bad all make interesting episodes of your very own Truman show.

Then add some new interesting characters (famous DJs, doctors, life coaches, motivational speakers etc).

They may already be on your radar as special guest stars in your daily 'episodes'.

You may have to seek them out and make contact (anything short of stalking is forgivable).

Stalk them if you have to.

Now let's take you outside of your comfort zone on a holiday or to the beach or someone else's territory.

You now have a whole new world of possibilities for your own extended universe already.

Remember you are the hero.

• You are the star.
• You are the main protagonist who gets to see everything from your own eyes like the viewer on TV would do if they were you.
• You are also the moral compass by which all else will be judged so therefore your character has to learn lessons daily to keep the audience interested and addicted to what happens next.
• You can do bad things only until you realise they are bad and then you will feel terrible and feel obliged to right your wrongs and make the world a better place.

Each daily episode has a lesson to be learned.

Some are huge milestones, others are more subtle.

Others are played for laughs (or tears) and a captive audience.

One thing is for sure, it never makes for boring viewing because you get all your senses, emotions and experiences in complete surround sound, feelovision (yes I made that up) and real time.

Ready to begin?

Almost.

One question?

Who is really going to be interested in following your show and subscribing to your life lessons adventures?

One answer...

Your audience AFTER you learn to speak in public.

Now you are generating content, they will pay to see your progress and make Kardashian fan style comments.

Yes, you will also get trolls too.

Meet up groups, webinars, conferences, networking events, gala dinners, product launches, radio interviews, podcasts and Facebook Live viewers are all waiting for your latest conclusions and observations.

Also ONE BIG THING...

You CAN monetize this.

Trust me.

I will show you how...

So are you ready to begin?

EPISODE 2: Your New Life Begins...

Take a look in a mirror after reading this article.

Your very own show starts the exact moment you stop looking and decide what you will do next.

It will also be filming even when you aren't thinking about your show.

You can eulogise and draw conclusions before bed-time.

Sometimes an invisible 'to be continued' sign will pop up when things have unresolved conclusions.

It's all included.

That's how this works.

Break a leg (show business term for 'good luck').

Cameras.

Lights.

Action...

...WAIT!!!

I forgot to ask you.

When would you like to learn to speak?
