TRUE STORY Motivation Satish Deshmukhs word 29 th of January, It was late evening and I was working on my PC when I received a telephone call from famous super model who was my student in Magic Workshop. She specified to me that her talents were not being recognized. It was the fashion designer whose clothing she used to wear for the ramp would be benefited. She felt more frustrated to tell me that even her 6 months old child was not recognizing her. Her child would start crying whenever she took it in her arms but her maid would comfort the baby as soon as she used to touch her. I asked her to meet me immediately and applied motivational magic. A person can be motivated externally and internally. Result was beyond expectations. Later on I designed a show titled the TOUCH with actresses from Canada & USA. Continue…

ASSISTANTS OF MAGIC WORKSHOP MAGIC JOURNEY. SOME GOOD TIPS for students and new comers "Don't copy anyone else. You are the best one of you there is. Be yourself, and exaggerate yourself slightly." "Even if you only intend to do close up magic you should still try to learn about all aspects of theatre, including lighting and sound. There is no need to force yourself to practice. All you have to do is 'play' with the props. Play with cards, for example, whilst watching TV and let your hands become really familiar with their size, shape and texture." "When someone shares something of value with you and you benefit from it, you have a moral obligation to share it with others" Continue…

1. Rapport Builder Magic is a highly engaging activity that spellbinds children quickly. Magic allows individuals to appear more playful and approachable. Magic is a very effective distraction from tension and anxiety. 2. Teaching Tool Magic can be used metaphorically to teach life skills. For example, magic tricks that "break out" or "escape" can represent overcoming obstacles and achieving goals. 3. Therapeutic Alliance When used properly in long-term individual counseling, magic can provide a shared activity, common ground, and something for the child to look forward to witnessing or/and learning. 4. Connecting with Resistant Teens Magic can be irresistible for even the most resistant teens by challenging their intellect and piquing their curiosity. 5. Strengthening Groups Magic can be a highly effective tool for breaking "ice" in children's support groups. It can also be used to promote positive group norms and cooperation. 6. Behavior management For interested younger children, magic can work well as positive reinforcement. Children can earn the privilege to learn the technique with regard to performance of magic tricks for good behavior. 7. Diagnostic Aid Magic is a useful and common sense tool for detecting depression in children. WHY MAGIC AS A MEDIUM MAGIC JOURNEY. Continue…

1.I understood the importance of developing sound inter-personal relationships. From now on I will not say this is not my work but will try to do any job that is needed to be done because the job is not for someone else, but for me. 2.My head is now full of new but simple ideas of how to be a happy and productive. The teachings of these five days have made an indelible impression on me. I have certainly taken the first step to change, I feel very sad as the workshop was only for five days. I hope we have many such workshops in the future. 3.The workshop helped me to open up and share my thoughts, ideas and experiences without any inhibitions. Today I really understood myself. I have gained tremendous self-confidence in this workshop. 4.I learnt to solve a difficult problem in a happy state of mind. I will tackle any challenging job with all my heart and soul. I also learnt the importance of communication skills. Workshop gave me the opportunity to perform on stage. I learnt how to achieve wholesome development in me. 5.We learnt to think about others first. This will help us to think about our customers first. If we want to keep our top position in a highly competitive market, we need to constantly change and improve. Continuous learning will help us to grow. This type of training does not change only one person, but the entire community. 6.I really liked the workshop. I was able to remove the negative thoughts from my mind. My outlook is now more positive. I learnt that it requires a lot of moral courage to say sorry. The workshop is the best thing that happened to me. 7.When I was told that we have to attend this workshop, I was least interested. I even thought about absenting under some pretext. Now I am happy that I did not do so. The people who trained us and all that they taught us is simply unforgettable. I was walking in darkness. I almost completely removed my inferiority complex ? I hope that we have similar workshops on a continuous basis in the future. What did I learn? FEED BACK. Continue…
