well every story should basically follow these lines in general

introduction
build up
Plot Twist (or 2)
climax
Conclusion

well you can start off with the introduction,
- maybe your guy finds out that he has superpowers?
- or maybe your guyalready knows he can read minds, walks in the streats and suddensly hears someone in a mass of people think 'what does it matter, tomorrow theyll all be dead anyhow''

Pick a good one.

Build up: make it exciting,
- maybe with his new found powers he goes corrupt, and tries to manipulat people for his own good.
- search for the homicidal mystery guy...

Plot Twist, suprise the reader
- maybe he thinks finds the guy, that thought 'kill me all' burtst into a room and starts acusing people, then suddenly realising ehm he crashed a wedding or something.
- maybe he steals something nut gets caught in the crime,

climax
- build the story up to an epic conclusion

conclusion, disclose something about the moral of the story.
e.g. 'superpowers are good, but you have to use them ethically'
e.g. 'they all lived happily everafter'
e.g. 'make a cliffhanger ora to be continued'

some tips to make a story exciting:
- you can build up tension by not giving to much away at once.
if youre about to disclose something crucial to the story

describe the what the hero is thinknig, or start adding nonsense like 'the wind blew hard as our hero pondered' more text = longer time to read, builds suspense because the reader wants to know what happens.

Figure out details like how the power is acquired, how it affects the character's life, and how it is used. It is often suggested with writing to just write and put the pieces together after they have been written. Some stories actually do start at the end or the middle. Don't worry about the beginning, just work out the story.

Start from the beginning, when a baby was conceived and could read the mind of it's mother while in the womb. With every good thought, the baby gave the mother a good feeling all over, but with every bad thought the baby made the mother ill.
The rest is up to your imagination.

OK then... you start it as just you; your daily life, your home, friends, etc.. then something bad happens, someone evil, blah blah blah. then you mysteriously or by freak accident, get super powers. then the rest of the story. just make sure there is an evil thing before you introduce the powers; because otherwise people won't be able to relate. its like; why did this random guy get super powers??? there's no bad guy. is this guy going to be the bad guy??? ask me if you need more clarification.

All stories need a good setup or immersion into the scene in which the events of the story take place. Draw the reader in by describing the world.

You can start the story walking down the street reading every one minds, But then you stop died in your tracks to learn about something someone is thinking about..... Then you can take off from there.

With faith all things or possible, faith to read minds, is something you can do,be quiet, very still, remove all thoughts from your mind and others thoughts will inter if you wish.you must direct what you wish with conscious thought with faith.you MUST have total undoubting faith you can do something ,Anything.and you will be able to.FAITH is the key, having no doubt will actually turn the key, then YOU must do the rest with visualization.remember this.This is the only way to start ,to do .to initiate.about anything successfully.I can do all things thru the Spirit of God. that strengthens me.Is what I tell myself.
Hope this helps.
