The Code Challenge

ByJeff Gibbard March 30, 2026March 22, 2026 Reading Time: 1 minute

Over the past 10 posts, I’ve asked you to challenge yourself in ways that I think are deeply important.

These 10 challenges are the values that comprise the Superhero Code; a heroic way of living in service of making the world kinder, safer, and more equitable.

The challenge I pose to you today, is to find YOUR code. Yes, the code I came up with is obviously great. I don’t mind if you adopt it, adapt it, or improve upon it.

What’s important is having a destination worth moving toward.

It doesn’t need to be 10 items long. It can be 5 or 3 or even 1. If you wish to make a dent in the world, you can either do it by chance or on purpose. Doing it on purpose, requires purpose.

I care about becoming superhuman. I care about hiding a world with more superheroes in it. I care about a better world for my children and all humans.

What do you care about?

What challenge will you step up to?

What code will you live by?

That’s today’s challenge, I hope you take it.
