A world of Magic – Follow your magic

Madonna is not knowledgeable about sound systems, Lighting and the large amount of electrical equipment that is on stage… why does she succeed? Because she knows and recognises her personal magic and where is takes place.

Her magic takes place when she sings and dances. All the other magic belongs to other people in other fields.

Think about it, she simply does what she is good at – releases the magic within and is rewarded with such huge success.

Ronaldinio does not understand Law or PR etc because this is not his magic field; his magic field is to dance with the ball all the way to the goal. When he is on the pitch and he touches the ball, something takes place there – magic happens. And this magic is the secret of his success, all the rest is woven around him and the universe supports his magic.

When you find the field in which your magic expresses itself the universe comes towards you and organises everything else so that you will be able to express your magic.

And there is no need to go far, I used to visit a sandwich bar in Tel Aviv that was so successful… every time I walked in the place was full of happy customers, every time I arrived in Tel Aviv I felt an unknown attraction to drive to this place, even if it was not part of my journey, I would find an excuse to get there…

And what is the secret magic of this place? The people that prepare the sandwiches do it with so much love and transmit such good energy and good service…They really do dance and sing during the preparation… it seems that around them there is a halo of success – this is a halo of magic of people that went after their magic.

You don’t need to even understand every thing, you don’t need to be the best, you don’t need to compete with anyone, you don’t need to search, you don’t even need to try hard…

Simply find where the magic takes place in your life – activate this magic!

With me, I have noticed that every time I touch an instrument of any sort… Magic occurs! The air of inspiration flows through me and wonderful melodies start to flow and flow as if from an infinite well.

I can sit from morning until night and create beautiful tunes one after the other without being aware of the time that has passed or the previous tunes that came through me.

One day I woke up in the morning, I turned on a recording machine and just started playing – in the evening I discovered that I recorded 50 different tunes and each one is beautiful and interesting… where did all this come from? I didn’t even realise how this happened as I was so engrossed in creating that I forgot… A g-dly endless inspiration whose source is unknown.

I have never learnt music or to play an instrument and I still am able to play through hearing tens of different and unusual instruments … I have no idea how – its simply magic!

So I know for certain that when I play magic occurs.

The same goes for writing articles and stories. I simply feel an urge to write and I allow the writing and the magic to come out…and wonderful exciting helpful things come out not only for me but also for others.

When I write, magic takes place! And all the rest gets taken care of on its own.

If I was to take a piece of paper and start drawing the result would be very basic because the magic does not happen for me in this field or in other fields…luckily I have an insight into this and have found exactly where the magic takes place in my life, where the magic doesn’t happen – I am simply not there.

And when you implement your magic – everything takes care of itself.

The universe organises accordingly.

As if you put the right key into the magic door of the universe and the right door opened for you.

What is your magic? Where is it hiding? Every person has magic in different fields, which is why the world is so colourful and so wonderful.

Because it developed thanks to people who found their magical abilities and put them into practice.

If you think that there is nothing special about you, that you don’t have magic, allow me to tell you that you are hugely wrong.

I have never met in all my years a person that I have not identified in him something special in a certain area, magic, when he does the certain thing around him there is a halo of magic and you simply know that this is his speciality and his uniqueness.

Albert Einstein maybe did not know to sing and dance like Madonna but his magic was a combination of imagination and scientific theory that was extraordinary – that’s where his magic took place.

The industrialist Steff Wertheimer is a billionaire that built an empire, and despite this he repeats and says in all his interviews that he has always been and remains a good engraver that loves his job. His dream was to be the best engraver in Israel and create excellent products and in the end he became the richest man in Israel.

For years Steff is trying to send an important message and this message is that if every individual will look and find the field that they love to be involved in and will start to make products and give a service from it everything with look different here.

And in my own words: if every individual will find their magic/charm and will exercise it in the best possible way from the place where it is present, he will thrive and as a result will cause many people to thrive.

And Steff proved this when he took a Druze worker from his factory, an elderly Grandma which made to her own pleasure homemade soaps that are made of Olive Oil and under his supervision he helped her succeed on a large scale and export her soaps, and therefore create places of earning for many people along the way and also generate money for the country.

Why? Because he identified her magic – her expertise in making these soaps.

It is true that Steff helped her but behind Steff stands a much larger body – the endless universe that helps everyone that follows their magic with a belief.

Not once have I seen people that their magic floats around them and is calling them, knocking on their door again and again but they do not see the obvious signals and reject it to places of free time and label them hobbies.

I know a woman that bakes cakes and cookies in such a beautiful and tasty way – and she is an expert with all the various types of recipes, every spare moment she bakes and distributes them to people with love.

Every time that I meet her I notice the halo that floats around her, the magic in making the cakes and cookies.

She works as an employee in an office job and immediately when she arrives home she turns on the oven and starts to bake her magic.

I tried to hint to her to try and turn towards a full time occupation in this field but one small belief is restricting her (temporarily). It is possible to see (and taste) clearly that the magic is present there. This is her destiny and I am certain that it is just a matter of time (process) until the “penny will drop” for her and she will answer the “conversation” that will call her to unite with her magic, with her happiness fully.

I read about an opposite incident in the United States that discovered that her magic is in flat Brownies (cookies) , when she asked people what their opinion is about opening a shop that will sell these cookies all replied unanimously - NO! Firstly because plenty of shops already exist that sell cookies and secondly her Brownies are very unusual, they are flatter and wider than the normal, they simply said “give up on the idea – it will not succeed”.

Luckily she did not listen and opened on her own a shop in the centre of town that many business people pass through. On the first day not one customer came in, on the second day she went out of the shop with a tray of hot cookies and gave them out to business people that were on their way to their offices, gradually they got used to the cookies and started to recommend them to their friends and became regular customers… Today this lady runs a chain of shops all over the US and owns branches abroad and makes around two hundred million dollars a year!

There are so many more examples but the conclusion is one:

When you follow your magic – the universe stabilizes to help you so that you will succeed.

My father in law is in the same boat, a man with exceptional cooking talent.

He brings out the best in himself when he is in the kitchen and causes his family and friends to enjoy his dishes.

He talks about food and utensils with such enthusiasm…

And although his magic halo is floating around him when he is cooking and over the years everyone has asked him to open a small restaurant that serves homemade food – he runs a second hand car business.

When you see him in his business you do not see a halo of magic around him or any kind of light.

The magic returns and the light is turned on when he returns to the kitchen and starts to cook.

And there are so many examples like this that I am sure you know of some or you may even be one of these people that are not connected to their magical qualities.

So I declare that the time has come to wake up, yes.

Whoever is supposed to wake up from this article – I invite him to do so and unite with his magic.

The person that these things do not speak to can and has the right to exit this internet page immediately and move on as usual.

This is my challenge for you:

In the next few days starting from now, try and locate your magic.

It can take you a minute, and it can take you a week but as long as it takes – it is worth it!

How can you find your magic?

I am sure that you already know where your magic is, and if not then here are a few tips that will direct you to find it, ask yourself:

1. What are the things that I love to do the most?

2. What are the things that I am good at, that come to me naturally without effort?

3. What would I do and continue to do even if I wouldn’t get paid or get recognition or any other reward?

4. What are the things that I love to do that can benefit others and even to cause others to pay me for the service/product?

5. Imagination exercise : imagine for a moment that you arrive at a secluded island and meet the local tribe members and their leader comes towards you and says to you:

“Everyone here in the tribe contributes in different ways; our question to you is what can you contribute from your talents? Remember, you can choose any answer that you wish as long as it is a field that you love and that you have the desire to give others and that it will cause others to enjoy that same thing (to sleep all day is not in this category) what would you reply to him?

6. Create a survey amongst your friends, ask them: what is the thing that is special about me?

What is my biggest talent in your opinion? What occupation in your opinion should I be in?

What is the occupation in your opinion that causes me the most happiness?

Often others can see your magical halo from the side and identify it better than you.

Finally: To some of you this article will serve as purely inspiration, but to others this could open up a new direction in your life, a direction of happiness where everything gets sorted like…Magic.
