In keeping with our anniversary celebratory theme started from our previous post, I thought I should take a moment to remind and restate three significant things about The Raising Supaman Project. I call these three things the Who, Who and Why.
Who is the Blog Meant For? YOU!
First of all, The Raising Supaman Project is not just a blog.
The Raising Supaman Project is a revolution – an all-out rebellion against today’s absurdly unimaginative parenting tips, yesterday’s dangerously obsolete views about children & parenting and the contemptuous self-absorbed, societal destructive behaviors of today’s adults. Instead of being just a blog, “The Project” is a place where fresh progressive ideas, best tested practices and innovate goal setting that can make each of us better people are shared.
This site is meant for people looking to be better today than they were yesterday, people who want to be better tomorrow than they are today and people who want to be better right here, right now.

“The Project” is the place for you, if you dare to be different from the average person – embracing the philosophy that parenting is a profession that requires a never-ending commitment for vigilant improvement, constant big picture societal accountability, deep and abiding respect for all humankind, passionately inspired planning, purposeful preparation and an urgency to be creative and innovative so that individual and collective improvement is always the focus.
Who Should Read This Site? Just about EVERYONE!
The Raising Supaman Project is for everyone. In the words of the Kenny Loggins, “this is it”! Make no mistake, it – The Raising Supaman Project – is the place for you.
It is a place for parents, children, guardians, educators, etc. Anyone and everyone who has a child or who was once a child is welcome to join “The Project”. Whether you are a parent, someone hoping to be a parent one day or even if you are repulsed by the idea of ever being a parent – truly everyone is welcome.
“The Project” is open to everyone regardless of age, ability, gender, race, national origin, religion, sexual orientation, social status or economic standing. There are no restrictions or limitations to being a part of the movement. Well maybe there is one small condition to being involved with “Project”.
You must believe that you can be better – that you can improve from being whatever you are now and being wherever you are at the moment. If when you awoke this morning, you believed that the world was perfect, that you were perfect and that there was no way the world nor you could ever improve, well then “The Project” is not for you.
However, if you are one of the 7 billion imperfect people who have yet to attain flawlessness, who while acknowledging that perfection may be fleeting still believe in the pursuit of perfection, you should stick around and be a part of an uprising to Change the World – to make the world a much better place than it was when you arrived. If you are tired of living in the box and want to not only think outside the box but CRUSH the darn box – replacing the old and stale box with something fresh, different and innovate – you are EXACTLY the person The Raising Supaman Project was intended.
Why Don’t You Want to Be More Exclusive?
The Raising Supaman Project is exclusive. It is intended to solely serve those who want to be better, who believe they can do better and who believe individually and collectively we can change the world. The project is a conduit and incubator to help breathe life into great ideas, to formulate strategies, to ignite passionate action and to fuel world-changing progress.
To do what needs to be done, everyone should have an opportunity to contribute. I believe we all have an abundance of gifts, talents and abilities that far too often remain dormant or underdeveloped. We ignore the effective use of the tools we have been given – at least until much of our life has passed. “The Project” is here to change this.
I believe we routinely discount the importance of being authentic about who we are, taking the time to do those things that really matter, being a real contributor to the “greater societal good” and planning how we intend to be remembered when our time on earth expires. “The Project” is her to discourage this.
I believe we choose – most often unconsciously – to spend far too much time living life doing things we loathe; spending precious and finite time surrounded by insecure, callous and narcissistic people; working in professions and existing in environments that drain us of our originality and creative juices; focusing on the pursuit of stuff (titles, homes, cars, clothes, financial rewards, etc.) instead of pursuing our life affirming passions; allowing others cynical opinions and pessimistic thoughts about us permeate our minds sabotaging our unlimited potential and immeasurable promise; and living as if the very moment we are living is a rehearsal and not the final performance. “The Project” is here to prevent this.
I believe all the aforementioned things are not only detrimental for us but they are detrimental to society. I believe the things we do to ourselves have a sizeable – a domino effect if you will – impact on so many events. I believe much of what we are doing to ourselves directly and greatly impacts the type and quality of children that are being raised today. I believe the future requires that we all must do better and that we all must become better than we currently are. Better parents, better children, better citizens and better caretakers of the planet.
I believe that people need a place where they can go that will encourage them to be great, to assure them at being different is okay, to inspire them to live life with passion, to hold them accountable to doing things that really make a difference, to protect the spirit of living life urgently, to share with them ways to live & love purposefully and to help them accept as an undeniable fact that we each have the responsibility to make the world a better place than it was when we arrived.
Every child needs these things! Every child needs The Raising Supaman Project!
