Ray-
Being a tad new to mentalism, you will hear the phrase "Thinking like a magician." several times. It's what makes you yearn for purity in method. It's what makes you think "If I could really read minds, why would I use a..." You'll get over it. At a certain point, you'll replace the phrase with "Just do it." I think at that point, you'll relax and start having fun with it all.

What you do is define who and what you are. Define yourself and the type of material you want to do, then step outside the box of conventional thinking and just do it. Make it as simple and direct as possible. What I sent you last night does just that for me, and essentially does what you were looking to do, while remaining me. As you saw, it does not follow the "conventional" wisdom outlined by many here. But it works and is true Psychic Entertainment (with a capital P.E.) Tony |

Tony,
Thanks again for that amazing PM. It was exactly that kind of effect I am going toward. You are right, I do want my effects to be Simple and Direct as possible. I am trying to define myself along with the type of material I will use. I guess I am still thinking like a magician (cuss word) LOL Ever heard people say' "When I get a new effect (trick) I don't look at the instructions I see what I can do with it first!" In a way I am doing that also. I see a combination of things mixed to create my effects. Thanks again for helping to guide me straight down this path of mind reading. I see a fork in the path up ahead. One path looks to be traveled quite well and often. The other path has so many weeds and thick vines growing in the way. Which path should I go down...? Hold on.... Let me sharpen my machete...I will met your guys at the other end. LOL (In a way I really do mean that) I do not see things and ask why.....I see things and ask WHY NOT? Tom Jorgenson, Thank you for writing also. You said that I was "Thinking like a magician." Because I want purity in method and to just get over it and Just DO IT! You are 100% correct I am /was thinking like a magician but I also like to think that I am thinking like an entertainer. I ask why can't I have the type of effects that I can see in my mind? I am not sure how to do them yet. LOL But I am learning and playing around with ideas. I am really glad that I have crossed over to this side. This type of entertainment can be very powerful. If mentalism is done the way it should be IMHO it will reach deep into a spectator and touch their very being! MAN! That is what I am after! Best Ray |

You're thinking about things in the wrong way again. If you see a fork in the road up ahead, BEND IT. :) Tony |
