#i can appreciate the desire of the post-crisis reboot

[cantsayidont]

January-February 1950. Since the 1978 SUPERMAN movie with Christopher Reeve, Jonathan and Martha Kent have generally been depicted as farmers, but in the pre-Crisis comics, they actually sold the farm before Clark Kent entered high school and bought a general store in Smallville, where Clark often helped out as a clerk or stock boy. In this story from SUPERBOY #6, Clark leaves school for a few days to run the store after Jonathan Kent twists his ankle.

The Superboy strip was careful to note that the Kents HAD been farmers at the time they found Kal-El's rocket ship, to avoid contradicting past accounts of Superman's origin. However, moving the Kents into town made more sense for the Superboy strip, since it made it easier to introduce supporting characters from Smallville (for instance, Lana Lang first appeared in SUPERBOY #10). Also, running the store was somewhat less strenuous than farming for the Kents, who were generally depicted as relatively spry but obviously elderly, looking more like teenage Clark's grandparents than his parents.

So, why have modern stories again focused on the Kents as farmers? The salt-of-the-earth family farmer remains an important piece of American cultural mythology with powerful political connotations despite its very limited relevance to the realities of modern agribusiness. Modern Superman media, particularly the live-action movies, tends to play this to the hilt, elevating Jonathan Kent the hardworking farmer to a kind of saintly figure of plainspoken middle-American values. This is also a useful prop for the nativist leanings of the post-Crisis comics, which seek to affirm Superman's bona fides as a true-blue, native-born American champion.

Indeed, John Byrne's 1986 MAN OF STEEL miniseries is explicit in its representation of farming as an exemplar of moral virtue. In explaining to Lara why he intends to send Kal-El to Earth, Jor-El says he has selected Earth because it resembles Krypton in its prelapsarian Golden Age past, possessing "a fullness of life we have denied ourselves...but which I shall give back to our son!" He then displays this image:

This is a pretty blatantly fascist argument: As Jor-El explains, escaping from the poison of modern Krypton to embrace the earthy traditional values from which Lara recoils will make their son a "supreme being," "almost a god." Note also that Lara, who unlike Jor-El has never questioned Kryptonian cultural mores, reacts in a way the reader is expected to see as sinister: suggesting that their son will use his power to become a tyrant and impose "proper Kryptonian ways" (which Byrne presents, both here and in the subsequent WORLD OF KRYPTON, as corrupt, inhuman, and sterile) on the people of Earth. Jor-El doesn't seek to argue the point, since his plan will in effect inoculate Kal-El against the corrupting moral influence of his mother and his native culture by delivering him from the doomed decadence of Krypton into the care of simple, decent Midwestern farmers like the one in the image he showed Lara previously, to become a champion of American populism.

It's not subtle, and it's quite unsavory, for all the admittedly slick prettiness of Byrne's storytelling.

  People, like organizations, find making change easier when faced with a crisis. If you or someone close to you has had a health scare related to being overweight, it could be your call to action. These crises create a sense of urgency, but we don’t have to manufacture a crisis to create a sense of urgency. Effective leaders set stretch goals for their organization that need to be reached within a specified timeframe. A goal needs to have a deadline. A deadline helps create a sense of urgency.  It helps establish priorities and prevents procrastination.  After setting goals they look at leading and lagging indicators. Lead indicators are daily actions we can take to achieve our long term goal, measured by lag indicators. For example, generating sales leads might be a lead indicator, while the lag indicator would be an increase in sales revenue. Fat loss lead indicators are your daily caloric intake and total daily protein intake. The lag indicators are your weekly bodyweight averages and average body fat percentages.

I have always gotten in my best condition when I had a specific event or competition I was preparing for at the time. If you don’t have a competition or event, you are preparing for you can create one. Here are some examples that can create the sense of urgency that makes change easier:

1)    Lose 10 pounds of body fat before your 10-year college reunion in 12 weeks.

2)    Compete in a body transformation contest, like Body-for-Life or the Lean Body Challenge.

3)    Lose 12 pounds before a professional photo shoot you have scheduled with your spouse in three months.

4)    Lose 20 pounds before your scheduled vacation to Hawaii in four months.

5)    Lose 15 pounds while you prepare for the MS 150 Bike Ride.

6)    Lose 20 pounds before a yearly dinner party you have planned with family or college friends.

These are just a few examples of the types of goals you can set to create the necessary sense of urgency needed to make change easier. Think big. The bigger your goal the more motivated you’ll be to go after it every day. The higher a priority it will be to you. The less likely you’ll be to procrastinate. The more fuel you’ll have to grind it out, day after day. Seeing yourself achieving your compelling goal is going to push you to make it a reality. Imagine how great it’s going to feel once you accomplish your goal. I like to envision a naysayer, a real or imagined person, that’s hoping I’ll fail. I channel my anger toward that person into my workouts with an “I’ll prove you wrong” mentality. I adopt a “you don’t know me” attitude. You don’t know how determined I am. I like to imagine their dismay when they discover I have beaten their predictions. “Success is the best revenge,” Ed Sheeran.

Commit yourself to your goal. In the examples given, register for your event or race in advance, purchase your airplane tickets, book hotel reservations, schedule the photography session, etc. You can sign-up for a one-year gym membership, which often saves you money over month-to-month memberships. You can sign-up for personal training sessions and share your goals with your trainer. This will further commit you and create an additional layer of accountability. The crucial thing is that you create a real sense of urgency. Establishing a sense of urgency will provide you with the motivation you need to stick to the program and overcome temptation. When you are tempted to eat a piece of birthday cake at the office or skip a planned workout. You will remember that your event is only a few weeks away, you have made a significant financial commitment, and you need to keep making progress toward your goal. Letting supportive friends and family know about your plans can also help you commit.

Make the decision. In Latin, decision literally translates to “a cutting off.” Decide. Commit. Cut off all other options. Cut off the excuses. Cut off the negative people in your life. Cut off procrastination. Cut off laziness.  In the military we say a unit is decisively engaged when it cannot retreat or advance. It must stand and fight or parish. Decide. Commit yourself. Commit, like Captain Cortes did by burning the boats. After his eleven ships carrying 600 Spaniards landed on the shores of Veracruz in 1519, he immediately gathered his men and ordered the boats be burned. By eliminating their only means of escape, he left them with only two options; succeed or die.  There is no better time than now.  Tony Robins says, “A real decision is measured by the fact that you’ve taken action. If there’s no action, you haven’t really decided. If you want to take the island, then burn the boats. With absolute commitment come the insights that create real victory.”

The Space Between Us

During this pandemic, not only are we literally experiencing a space between us in the physical world but also with the “idea” of who we thought we were. Think about this for a minute. Who are you really without the things you do daily? Without the clothes you wear? Without the things you buy? The people whom you choose to spend your time with? Who are you without your overloaded schedule? Your appointments? Your responsibilities to be a “successful” in this world we live in that we have come to call life?

Well if you ask me, I think the “space between us” is exactly the thing we all needed in order to disassociate ourselves from our “ladder climbing” narcissistic ideals of having to achieve something at all times and take a step back and recognize our humanity. Perhaps this enforced isolation is exactly what we needed to bring our divided society back together. Perhaps it is what we need to bring us all back to who we really are and want to be.

They say times of crisis bring out the best and worst in humanity. Well in my opinion, I believe it brings out more of the best than it does of the worst. Lately, a term that has been coined by Forbes Magazine, as the “pop-up generosity” relates to how individuals/companies from all parts of the world have come “together” to create, contribute and share freely there services to the greater good. Online you can find a multitude of people using creative ways to share their services and help ease the isolation of others through free classes, seminars, coaching and even live entertainment.

If you come to think about it, on the other side of this global pandemic which has literally shut down the world and forced into isolation,  there is what you can say, some kind of collateral beauty coming out of it. Beauty in the sense of altruism, within this new  “solidarity” we have diminished the space between us. People have “pulled together” metaphorically to do good all around. Teens are teaching older generations the “ins and outs” of our tech world,  restaurants and other businesses are sending those helping at the front lines food and different forms of PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) and even within this physically social distancing moment we are actually spending more time with our loved ones than ever before. Whether it is in isolation at home or in a virtual sense.

We are spending time now that perhaps we would have never had before. Because you see as the world has come to a halt so has our concept of time. And now the time we spend doing the things we do is not calculatedly cramped in between other things. I, for example, although not quarantined with my family, except for my husband, can say that for the first time in 30 years have never spoken so much to my parents on a daily basis as I am right now. From the exchange of news clippings to memes and facetime— it is the closest I have ever been to them! 

Now imagine those of you who get to actually wake up to your kids or your parents each day for hours on end, day in and day out. I’m sure by now you have moments where it gets a little tedious, but think about it-- when if not now would you have had the time to do something like this? To sit around all day and truly get to know your loved ones beyond just the superficial “hey, how was your day” conversation.

This imposed isolation is a blessing in disguise. I hate to break it to you but life is very short.  And, before you know it— it is gone. Kids grow up, you get old, grandparents die and who knows what else. That is why even though this period of isolation exists now, whether we like it or not, all we can do is learn to appreciate it. Because at the end of the day what it has actually given us is more Time. More time to figure out who we are and want to be. More time to spend with the ones we love (virtually or insolation). More time to contemplate life and our ideals. More time for to explore new interest, read, write, listen to music. Time, my friends is a limited commodity and we may never again be able to have the free time to spend countless hours like this ever again.

That is why you should try to see this quarantine as a potential period of growth, as a time to reconsider some things that you had been putting off. I started this post by asking you “Who are you really without the things you do daily? Without the clothes you wear? Without the things you buy? The people whom you choose to spend your time with? Who are you without your overloaded schedule? Your appointments? Your responsibilities to be a “successful” in this world we live in that we have come to call life? Well now is the perfect time to figure those things out. Believe it or not this imposed solitude can actually be quite healthy.

In fact, there are many physical and psychological benefits of spending time alone. Here are just a few science-backed benefits you can gain from this quarantine:

Gain self-knowledge and Insight.

Spending time alone helps you become more comfortable in your own skin. It offers you the mental space to make choices without outside influences, which aid you in developing more insight into who you are as a person.

Reboot your brain and unwind.

In the normal world we are constantly on the go, always needing to get something done or worried about time, work and other things. Now by being forced to be at home, our brain gets a chance to rest and replenish itself. Allow yourself a chance to clear your mind, focus, and think more clearly. 

Increases empathy.

When you spend time with certain inner circles whether it be at work or with friends, you develop a “we vs. them” mentality or an “i don't have time for this” type of thinking. By spending time alone or at home, you start to develop more compassion for people and things which otherwise you would not have had.

Increases productivity.

With less distractions and interruptions you are better able to concentrate and focus on the things that need to get done— therefore you get more of the things you need to do a shorter amount of time.

Spark creativity.

Ever wonder why so many of the worlds greatest authors or artists retreat to private studios or isolated places. It is because being alone with your thoughts gives your brain a chance to wander, which can help you become more creative. Being alone gives you an opportunity to discover yourself and find your own voice. 

Provides time for you to think deeply and  plan your life.

Spending time alone or at home opens up space for  you to think about your goals, your progress, your ideals and deep desires-- it gives you a chance to ensure there’s a purpose to all of your hustle and bustle. 

Build mental strength.

By nature humans tend to be social creatures— we thrive on it. But, solitude may be just as important. Some studies show that the ability to tolerate alone time has been linked to increased happiness, higher life satisfaction, and improved stress management. People who can endure alone time tend to be less depressed overall.

Retrospectively speaking all of this could just be a convenient side effect of actually just having the time to be able to take some time and figure WHO you really are and WHAT that actually means to you. Without the imposing pressures of a world that never stopped to let you BE.

You can sign-up for personal training sessions and share your goals with your trainer. This will further commit you and create an additional layer of accountability. The crucial thing is that you create a real sense of urgency. Establishing a sense of urgency will provide you with the motivation you need to stick to the program and overcome temptation. When you are tempted to eat a piece of birthday cake at the office or skip a planned workout. You will remember that your event is only a few weeks away, you have made a significant financial commitment, and you need to keep making progress toward your goal. Letting supportive friends and family know about your plans can also help you commit.

Make the decision. In Latin, decision literally translates to “a cutting off.” Decide. Commit. Cut off all other options. Cut off the excuses. Cut off the negative people in your life. Cut off procrastination. Cut off laziness.  In the military we say a unit is decisively engaged when it cannot retreat or advance. It must stand and fight or parish. Decide. Commit yourself. Commit, like Captain Cortes did by burning the boats. After his eleven ships carrying 600 Spaniards landed on the shores of Veracruz in 1519, he immediately gathered his men and ordered the boats be burned. By eliminating their only means of escape, he left them with only two options; succeed or die.  There is no better time than now.  Tony Robins says, “A real decision is measured by the fact that you’ve taken action. If there’s no action, you haven’t really decided. If you want to take the island, then burn the boats. With absolute commitment come the insights that create real victory.”

    “Without a sense of urgency, desire loses its value.” Jim Rohn A goal without a deadline has no real beginning. Without hard deadlines we invite procrastination.   People, like organizations, find making change easier when faced with a crisis. If you or someone close to you has had a health scare related to being overweight, it could be your call to action.

  People, like organizations, find making change easier when faced with a crisis. If you or someone close to you has had a health scare related to being overweight, it could be your call to action. These crises create a sense of urgency, but we don’t have to manufacture a crisis to create a sense of urgency. Effective leaders set stretch goals for their organization that need to be reached within a specified timeframe. A goal needs to have a deadline. A deadline helps create a sense of urgency.  It helps establish priorities and prevents procrastination.  After setting goals they look at leading and lagging indicators. Lead indicators are daily actions we can take to achieve our long term goal, measured by lag indicators. For example, generating sales leads might be a lead indicator, while the lag indicator would be an increase in sales revenue. Fat loss lead indicators are your daily caloric intake and total daily protein intake. The lag indicators are your weekly bodyweight averages and average body fat percentages.

I have always gotten in my best condition when I had a specific event or competition I was preparing for at the time. If you don’t have a competition or event, you are preparing for you can create one. Here are some examples that can create the sense of urgency that makes change easier:

1)    Lose 10 pounds of body fat before your 10-year college reunion in 12 weeks.

2)    Compete in a body transformation contest, like Body-for-Life or the Lean Body Challenge.

3)    Lose 12 pounds before a professional photo shoot you have scheduled with your spouse in three months.

4)    Lose 20 pounds before your scheduled vacation to Hawaii in four months.

5)    Lose 15 pounds while you prepare for the MS 150 Bike Ride.

6)    Lose 20 pounds before a yearly dinner party you have planned with family or college friends.

These are just a few examples of the types of goals you can set to create the necessary sense of urgency needed to make change easier. Think big. The bigger your goal the more motivated you’ll be to go after it every day. The higher a priority it will be to you. The less likely you’ll be to procrastinate. The more fuel you’ll have to grind it out, day after day. Seeing yourself achieving your compelling goal is going to push you to make it a reality. Imagine how great it’s going to feel once you accomplish your goal. I like to envision a naysayer, a real or imagined person, that’s hoping I’ll fail. I channel my anger toward that person into my workouts with an “I’ll prove you wrong” mentality. I adopt a “you don’t know me” attitude. You don’t know how determined I am. I like to imagine their dismay when they discover I have beaten their predictions. “Success is the best revenge,” Ed Sheeran.

Commit yourself to your goal. In the examples given, register for your event or race in advance, purchase your airplane tickets, book hotel reservations, schedule the photography session, etc. You can sign-up for a one-year gym membership, which often saves you money over month-to-month memberships.

4)    Lose 20 pounds before your scheduled vacation to Hawaii in four months.

5)    Lose 15 pounds while you prepare for the MS 150 Bike Ride.

6)    Lose 20 pounds before a yearly dinner party you have planned with family or college friends.

These are just a few examples of the types of goals you can set to create the necessary sense of urgency needed to make change easier. Think big. The bigger your goal the more motivated you’ll be to go after it every day. The higher a priority it will be to you. The less likely you’ll be to procrastinate. The more fuel you’ll have to grind it out, day after day. Seeing yourself achieving your compelling goal is going to push you to make it a reality. Imagine how great it’s going to feel once you accomplish your goal. I like to envision a naysayer, a real or imagined person, that’s hoping I’ll fail. I channel my anger toward that person into my workouts with an “I’ll prove you wrong” mentality. I adopt a “you don’t know me” attitude. You don’t know how determined I am. I like to imagine their dismay when they discover I have beaten their predictions. “Success is the best revenge,” Ed Sheeran.

Commit yourself to your goal. In the examples given, register for your event or race in advance, purchase your airplane tickets, book hotel reservations, schedule the photography session, etc. You can sign-up for a one-year gym membership, which often saves you money over month-to-month memberships. You can sign-up for personal training sessions and share your goals with your trainer. This will further commit you and create an additional layer of accountability. The crucial thing is that you create a real sense of urgency. Establishing a sense of urgency will provide you with the motivation you need to stick to the program and overcome temptation. When you are tempted to eat a piece of birthday cake at the office or skip a planned workout. You will remember that your event is only a few weeks away, you have made a significant financial commitment, and you need to keep making progress toward your goal. Letting supportive friends and family know about your plans can also help you commit.

Make the decision. In Latin, decision literally translates to “a cutting off.” Decide. Commit. Cut off all other options. Cut off the excuses. Cut off the negative people in your life. Cut off procrastination. Cut off laziness.  In the military we say a unit is decisively engaged when it cannot retreat or advance. It must stand and fight or parish. Decide. Commit yourself. Commit, like Captain Cortes did by burning the boats. After his eleven ships carrying 600 Spaniards landed on the shores of Veracruz in 1519, he immediately gathered his men and ordered the boats be burned. By eliminating their only means of escape, he left them with only two options; succeed or die.  There is no better time than now.  Tony Robins says, “A real decision is measured by the fact that you’ve taken action. If there’s no action, you haven’t really decided. If you want to take the island, then burn the boats. With absolute commitment come the insights that create real victory.”

    “Without a sense of urgency, desire loses its value.” Jim Rohn A goal without a deadline has no real beginning. Without hard deadlines we invite procrastination.   People, like organizations, find making change easier when faced with a crisis. If you or someone close to you has had a health scare related to being overweight, it could be your call to action.

  People, like organizations, find making change easier when faced with a crisis. If you or someone close to you has had a health scare related to being overweight, it could be your call to action. These crises create a sense of urgency, but we don’t have to manufacture a crisis to create a sense of urgency. Effective leaders set stretch goals for their organization that need to be reached within a specified timeframe. A goal needs to have a deadline. A deadline helps create a sense of urgency.  It helps establish priorities and prevents procrastination.  After setting goals they look at leading and lagging indicators. Lead indicators are daily actions we can take to achieve our long term goal, measured by lag indicators. For example, generating sales leads might be a lead indicator, while the lag indicator would be an increase in sales revenue. Fat loss lead indicators are your daily caloric intake and total daily protein intake. The lag indicators are your weekly bodyweight averages and average body fat percentages.

I have always gotten in my best condition when I had a specific event or competition I was preparing for at the time. If you don’t have a competition or event, you are preparing for you can create one. Here are some examples that can create the sense of urgency that makes change easier:

1)    Lose 10 pounds of body fat before your 10-year college reunion in 12 weeks.

2)    Compete in a body transformation contest, like Body-for-Life or the Lean Body Challenge.

3)    Lose 12 pounds before a professional photo shoot you have scheduled with your spouse in three months.

4)    Lose 20 pounds before your scheduled vacation to Hawaii in four months.

5)    Lose 15 pounds while you prepare for the MS 150 Bike Ride.

  People, like organizations, find making change easier when faced with a crisis. If you or someone close to you has had a health scare related to being overweight, it could be your call to action. These crises create a sense of urgency, but we don’t have to manufacture a crisis to create a sense of urgency. Effective leaders set stretch goals for their organization that need to be reached within a specified timeframe. A goal needs to have a deadline. A deadline helps create a sense of urgency.  It helps establish priorities and prevents procrastination.  After setting goals they look at leading and lagging indicators. Lead indicators are daily actions we can take to achieve our long term goal, measured by lag indicators. For example, generating sales leads might be a lead indicator, while the lag indicator would be an increase in sales revenue. Fat loss lead indicators are your daily caloric intake and total daily protein intake. The lag indicators are your weekly bodyweight averages and average body fat percentages.

I have always gotten in my best condition when I had a specific event or competition I was preparing for at the time. If you don’t have a competition or event, you are preparing for you can create one. Here are some examples that can create the sense of urgency that makes change easier:

1)    Lose 10 pounds of body fat before your 10-year college reunion in 12 weeks.

2)    Compete in a body transformation contest, like Body-for-Life or the Lean Body Challenge.

3)    Lose 12 pounds before a professional photo shoot you have scheduled with your spouse in three months.

4)    Lose 20 pounds before your scheduled vacation to Hawaii in four months.

5)    Lose 15 pounds while you prepare for the MS 150 Bike Ride.

6)    Lose 20 pounds before a yearly dinner party you have planned with family or college friends.

These are just a few examples of the types of goals you can set to create the necessary sense of urgency needed to make change easier. Think big. The bigger your goal the more motivated you’ll be to go after it every day. The higher a priority it will be to you. The less likely you’ll be to procrastinate. The more fuel you’ll have to grind it out, day after day. Seeing yourself achieving your compelling goal is going to push you to make it a reality. Imagine how great it’s going to feel once you accomplish your goal. I like to envision a naysayer, a real or imagined person, that’s hoping I’ll fail. I channel my anger toward that person into my workouts with an “I’ll prove you wrong” mentality. I adopt a “you don’t know me” attitude. You don’t know how determined I am. I like to imagine their dismay when they discover I have beaten their predictions. “Success is the best revenge,” Ed Sheeran.

Commit yourself to your goal. In the examples given, register for your event or race in advance, purchase your airplane tickets, book hotel reservations, schedule the photography session, etc. You can sign-up for a one-year gym membership, which often saves you money over month-to-month memberships. You can sign-up for personal training sessions and share your goals with your trainer. This will further commit you and create an additional layer of accountability. The crucial thing is that you create a real sense of urgency. Establishing a sense of urgency will provide you with the motivation you need to stick to the program and overcome temptation. When you are tempted to eat a piece of birthday cake at the office or skip a planned workout. You will remember that your event is only a few weeks away, you have made a significant financial commitment, and you need to keep making progress toward your goal. Letting supportive friends and family know about your plans can also help you commit.

Make the decision. In Latin, decision literally translates to “a cutting off.” Decide. Commit. Cut off all other options. Cut off the excuses. Cut off the negative people in your life. Cut off procrastination. Cut off laziness.  In the military we say a unit is decisively engaged when it cannot retreat or advance. It must stand and fight or parish. Decide. Commit yourself. Commit, like Captain Cortes did by burning the boats. After his eleven ships carrying 600 Spaniards landed on the shores of Veracruz in 1519, he immediately gathered his men and ordered the boats be burned. By eliminating their only means of escape, he left them with only two options; succeed or die.  There is no better time than now.  Tony Robins says, “A real decision is measured by the fact that you’ve taken action. If there’s no action, you haven’t really decided. If you want to take the island, then burn the boats. With absolute commitment come the insights that create real victory.”
