What's your superpower?

I'm sure at one point, this is a question that everyone would come across once in their life: If you had a superpower, what would it be?

At one point in my life, I wanted telepathy. The ability to know all the answers to my quizzes and test, I mean, who wouldn't want that. But is it alright to understand the answer without going through putting in the effort? Is it alright to know instantly the motives and real meaning behind people without learning about them?

At another point, I wanted the ability to be invisible. The ability to hide away when I didn't want people to notice my weakness and flaws. The ability to be ignored when I didn't want to deal with people, it will be as if... I was invisible. But do I really want to hide just because I am ashamed of my flaws? Is it alright to just ignore my strengthens and talents and focus on my weakness?

For now I want the superpower to be courageous. Courageous to take the next step and continue on even when I am afraid, afraid of the potential risk or rewards. Sometimes it's a simple power which makes the difference, not a superpower.

So what's your superpower?
