Every little thing you do is magic (to somebody)

Don The Idea Guy

We all know a friend or two that has a talent we consider unique. Something that we have no talent for ourselves, so we view their skill as almost magical.

I can usually get a person to say “how the heck do you DO that??” when coming up with ideas on the fly, or when discussing obscure website resources on just about any topic — but I marvel a people who have a good memory for telling bar jokes, those who can do math in their heads, skills in sports, etc. The list goes on and on — we all have someone whose skill in something completely baffles us.

But the point is, EVERYONE can do a little magic and completely awe someone whose skills are not as developed in an area in which we personally excel. You just need to find that skillset and develop it to the point of mastery.

It’s like learning a magic trick.
Before you see how a trick is performed, you can be left completely speechless — but once the secret is discovered, it might be something you could perform yourself. Check out this link to a short video of the “World’s Greatest Magician” and see what I mean.

The Ugly Back

Everyone goes to the museum to admire the pretty fronts of artistic tapestries, but the ugly backs face the wall and are rarely on display. My wife decided she wanted to host a big family Thanksgiving this year. While we were in the process of cleaning up the house and putting our (my) clutter. Hapy […]
