A career. I'm taking a start your own business course just so I can acquire better knowledge for that side of it. But yeah. The dream is to be a working magician. Get people boooing me for you their events.

Hi Glenn. I`ve been doing magic to family and friends with 10 years now. The last year or so I`ve been thinking seriously about doing it a professional/paid magician. You`re right. I won`t be charging the first dosen shows or so as i`m inexperienced. And I understand thats why I cannot charge...

Thank you Tyler. The Approach is a book I must get. I've heard great things about it. RealityOne originally recommended to me. Now you're adding to that list.

Lord Magic, thank you. That was a really great answer. Very supportive. Thank you.

Thank you Christopher. That was a brilliant answer.

Hi Maaz. I'm going to do a 30 minute show to be safe. Fire is a good idea for a production. But I wouldn't use it at this age level and as much as I would like to, I don't have any experience with fire products. Hopefully in time. Thank you for your suggestions. I wish I had more visual...

So a school would like me to perform a magic show in a few weeks for an age group from 10 to 14 years old. This will be my first ever show. I would appreciate your thoughts on my tricks for the show. I want to say also that I don't have lots of tricks like 10-12 as I'm still a beginner and to be...

Hi Guys. Being a beginner and just starting my own business. What is your suggestions on doing shows right at the start? As they would be harder than walk around because of needing stronger audience management etc. Do you think I should take every show that I`m offered? Or only sell myself...

Thanks Christopher. Can theses balls be bought without buying the cups? Or would you be able to recommend me similar ones I could purchase?

Just a general wondering of what balls does he use. I'm referring to the small three red ones. I have 1 inch super soft spongeballs. And they seem even a bit too big. Mainly for the first load. I seem to have to tilt the cup a lot to load it. Is the balls he is using hard balls? I really can't...

Thank you RealityOne. I will do that. It's nice to hear from you.

Thank you Maaz.

Thank you Azhiguore.

I've an opportunity to do my second magic show (ever) in the same place as the first. (A day care center for the elderly) The first time went well. But to be honest I felt they were a lot of cringe moments. Maybe most of them, if not all was in my head. But the audience was really good to me...

Thanks man. They're good tips. Like I just said to Josh. If I cut the deck and changed the original order. I would be paranoid I wouldn't be able to understand it. Thank you for your reply. Appreciate it.

Thanks very much Josh. I think I'll just put it back in reversed. To be honest, cutting the invisible or just putting it any other way other than its original form would confuse me. I'd be paranoid I would accidentally put it in an order I wouldn't understand.

You have a fair point Christopher. Thanks making that a whole lot easier.

On the Invisible Deck Instructions by Daryl. He says to put the card back in front of your audience. (My example being a walk-around, table hoping magician) Because it will have you instantly reset for the next table. Which is great yes! But i don`t like putting it back in the deck in front of...

I must ask then. Which one is better? Or which should I get first? And why? Mark Wilsons Complete Course On Magic OR The Approach by Jamie D. Grant.
