September is here — and let’s be honest, we’re all feeling a little of the back-to-school blues. The long days of summer are winding down, vacations are over, and routines are back in full swing. But instead of sinking into post-summer sadness, let’s lighten the mood together.
Today, I want to bring a superhero into your inbox: Spider-Man.
Yes, the friendly neighborhood hero we all secretly adore. And no, I promise I’m not here to ruin your Marvel fandom. I want to pick on one of the most famous quotes from the movie: “With great power comes great responsibility.”
You’ve heard it before - even if you’ve never watched a Spider-Man movie. But here’s my coach’s take: I think they got it backwards.
It should be: “With great responsibility comes great power.”
Think about it. . .
Your true strength doesn’t come from what life throws at you, or from waiting for power to somehow appear. Power comes when you take full responsibility for your thoughts, your feelings, and your actions.
When you own your responsibility, suddenly the excuses fade, the self-saboteur quiets down, and you step into a place of possibility. That’s where your power - your real superpower - lives.
So, as we shift out of summer mode and back into “real life,” here’s a thought: What would change if, this month, you committed to taking full responsibility for how you show up?
Because the truth is: Responsibility unlocks power. And power unlocks your potential. Are you ready to put on your metaphorical superhero costume and lead your own story?
