Guardians of Your Goals: Are Your Friends Your Allies?
By Jon R. Brown

Thus far In the third season of Invincible, we have witness the clash between Cecil Stedman and the show’s main character, Invincible. We’re only 3 episodes in and this season has us hooked with intricate storytelling and powerful character dynamics. Particularly highlighting the crucial role of friendship and support in overcoming adversity.

One pivotal moment arises when Marc, having made the error of trusting Cecil Stedman of the GDA, finds himself in an almost life or death situation. In his time of need, Marc turns to the Guardians of the Globel. The guardians were given a choice; they could follow Cecil’s orders or commit treason by disobeying them and save their friend. Thankfully for our hero they chose the latter. This thrilling narrative serves as a stark reminder of the value of surrounding ourselves with people who share and support our goals.

While none of us are battling supervillains, we often navigate personal crises that call for resilience and support, like embarking on a  weight loss journey or sticking to a challenging diet. Just as Marc fell victim to misaligned loyalties, many of us struggle to achieve our aspirations because our friends' goals may not align with our own. For instance, pursuing your goals might lead to feeling isolated during social outings centered around merriment .

This season of Invincible offers a critical lesson: assess your friend group. Are they champions of you and your goals or are they distractions from them? Surrounding yourself with supportive allies is crucial for personal growth and goal achievement. 

Ultimately, this season emphasizes the importance of cultivating a network that values you AND your aspirations. Take a moment to reflect on your relationships. Are they fueling your journey toward success or holding you back? 

Let this be your reminder to foster genuine connections that align with your ambitions.
