Every Successful Magician Sets Goals

Magicians, they are funny, mystical,magical, amazing and amusing. What does it take to become a successful magician? Is it easy to be a magician? No way, it takes an ability to plan and with that plan comes goals...both personal and business.

As magicians we sometimes forget there are two words in what we do. That is, Magic Business. It is the second word, business that counts. If you are not in magic as a business you are in it for a hobby. Today it does not matter, the thing is, with magic and your act, you must do what all successful magicians do. That is, Set Goals.

Goal setting is the road map that will get you to where you are going. You don't always just get in the car and drive,sometimes you plan it out. Life is like that. If you set goals you achieve them. Failing to set goals and not plan you can never measure to see of you are on track.

When a magician designs a routine or a show, he or she (and yes, there are many female magicians) knows from start to finish where they are leading the audience. It's just like setting goals.

You can follow the S.M.A.R.T. formula, That formula is around in books and websites all over the place. Do some research and you will find it.

My point here is simple, you must set goals regardless of the system you use. I urge you to take a step and write down your goals today. Pick five and write them down daily if you like. Remember also, goals change and that is okay. the thing is, every successful magician sets goals.

I don't care if you are a magician or a doctor or a farmer. Start setting goals today.
