Why You Should Become a Mentalist
Finally coming home after months on the road concertizing, it’s great to catch up on a lot of the television programs that we miss.
One that I’ve been enjoying is called the hit series, “The Mentalist”, on CBS. Having been a magician myself from the age of 8, the title obviously caught my eye and inspired some thoughts of why it might be a good idea for all of us to take on the attitude as if we had the powers of The Mentalist.

The Mentalist – Simon Baker
I do some mentalism effects in my shows and have had the pleasure to have met some of the worlds best and exchange trade secrets with them at places like the famous Magic Castle in Hollywood.
Having said that, The Mentalist television series is not about magic per say.
At the beginning of the show they give the definition:
Mentalist – Someone who uses mental acuity, hypnosis and/or suggestion. A master manipulator of thoughts and behavior.
Now here’s the reason why I think we should all try to be mentalists – not magicians or hypnotists – but a master manipulator of thoughts and behavior.
Now I don’t mean mastering someone else’s thou ghts and behavior here. I mean, becoming master of your own thoughts and behavior.
If you made that a goal, I’m certain life would appear completely different to you. Things would be a lot easier. Harsh criticism and negativity would barely faze you.
If you could manipulate your thoughts and behavior, you would be able achieve your goals in a fraction of the time because you wouldn’t take “no” for an answer.
You could develop super strength frighteningly fast when it was YOU who psyched the weights out by lifting them – instead of the weights psyching You out.
Think of all the things you could be if you were a Master Mentalist. Think of the things you could do if you would start today in becoming a master manipulator of your thoughts and behavior.
Think of all the incredible things you could achieve in a short time by shutting down all the negativity that keeps you down physically, emotionally, and mentally.
I think a goal of becoming a master mentalist (magic illusions excluded) is something you might want to take a look at more seriously. I’m certain that making it a goal to become a master mentalist will bring you transformations in your life that seem like real magic.
To Your Strength and Mastery,

This is a goal of mind. To be able to master one’s mind would lead to unmeasurable success. How do you think those who are successful become successful in the first place. Law of attraction.
