Is This Magic?
I received an email from a reader recently about Mastering Your Power of Release. And she was hoping that the methods in the product would be something brand new and earth-shattering. And, if you’ve never tried them, they are brand new. If you learn these methods and use them, they can be earth-shattering. But, from the tone of her email, it seemed to me that she was looking for magic.
These methods are not magic.
Nothing is. Some things may work so well that they seem like magic. As a matter of fact, my very first sharing of these methods with a wider audience was in a self-published paperback book entitled, “Almost Like Magic.” And, once you see how easy it is to change your life, you might be tempted to call this magic.
But it’s not magic.
You can call it effective. You can call it life-changing. And I appreciate the people who have written to say that it has absolutely changed their lives for the better.
You can call it uncomplicated, because it actually is downright simple. And, even though it takes some study and some practice, once you get the hang of it, you really can change your life from negative to positive…from struggling to happy.
But don’t expect a magic phrase that, once uttered, does all the work for you. Because there’s no magic bullet. It’s simply applied science, and that means it takes some application on your part.
So, no, it’s not magic.
It just feels that way.

The only “magic” there is comes from within yourself. Knowing that, we can
say, We are all magic!
Hi Buz…
Sometimes we can hear or read the same info or techniques time and time again and yet it is a combination of when we are actually ready to really listen to what they are about and then apply them — that’s when the magic seems to happen. It could just be timing and the way it is expressed which resonates strongly in the reader.
But as you say… there is no magic formula/pill/affirmation/ritual or whatever. We have to find our own magic solution… and when we do, everything once hidden from us seems remarkably and magically crystal clear!

No, not magic, but it can feel that way!
Excellent point, Jeanne!
We never know what will be the key that opens our personal storehouse of riches, but, when we find it, it is almost like magic.
Thanks for commenting!

Neil,
You’re right, it can feel that way. The secret, in my opinion, is that there is nothing really secret. Your magic is already inside; you just learn how to access it.
I appreciate you stopping by to comment!

Hi Buz,
This is a great post! I remember hearing – “You’ve got to move your feet while praying”. In other words, all the affirmations and DVD’s and courses won’t do you a hill of beans if you aren’t willing to and don’t do the work!
Blessings,
Todd
I agree with Neil. You have to learn to access your own magic!
Thanks for your effort to help us help ourselves.
Moresage, I didn’t see your comment until right now! You are absolutely right…the magic is within.
Thanks!
