Heroic Transformation

          “When we quit thinking primarily about ourselves and our own self-preservation, we undergo a truly heroic transformation of consciousness.” This is a really cool quote because it is taking about how one becomes heroic. The cool thing is if you apply this to heroic movies, you will see the hero give up his self-preservation. This quote is saying that you become a hero when you stop thinking about your wellness and start thinking about other people. You can see this in almost every Superhero movie. Super hero’s save people because they have started to not only think of themself but to think of other people. This quote is also saying that we become a new person consciously. When one stops thinking about them self and starts to think of others he is no longer in his mind think of himself but of others. I think this quote relates to what Campbell said in the beginning. He said to become a hero one must give him/herself up to something bigger. These quotes relates because it is both talking about how you must not think of yourself but of others. In a lot of movies the hero always has the option of sacrificing himself to save the life of one or many. He always does too because when he became a hero he stopped thinking about him and thought of the good of other.
