Do you want to be Magical?

http://www.freakingnews.com/Magical-mystical-Pics-36735.asp

What makes a magic show so interesting? Why do people describe certain experiences as being magical? I believe that the magical experience is created for the viewer as a result of the following:

1) The viewer was surprised by the outcome. He/she did not expect the outcome.
2) The outcome seemed impossible to occur.
3) The viewer felt a part of the experience.
4) The magician was a showman or the visual experience was exciting.

What are the lessons for us when dealing with personal relationships, customers, fellow employees, etc.?

If you want to be magical;

1) give someone the unexpected,
2) provide an experience that is unbelievable,
3) involve the other person in the magical experience,
4) use showmanship or create an exciting visual experience (think fireworks display.)

Work these approaches into your relationships and watch the magic happen!
