Where does the time go?

So I just remembered that I have not written anything for a while. I know you might be asking why. Well here is the reason . I have been working. I know for some of you this might be a shock. A full time magician doing real shows and not wasting time on the Internet talking about stupid things. I have been working on my web site and my promo work and I have been performing.

This is the thing that most magicians do not get. Most of you think that just because you have bought the top number one magic trick in the world that you should now be working. To tell you the truth performing is %10 of my week . Most of it is working on promo and making calls(which non of us like but have to do to make money). I really hope that you can say that you have been doing the same thing. I think that really I have to say thank you to three people for helping me with getting focused. Number one my good friend and mentor Michael Finney. Number two again good friend Tom Kryztof and number three would be Eric Paul I have been listening to his Thursday night seminars and reading some of his stuff and it has been great for me.

Well I hope that you can start getting focused and start to make some great money. Enjoy magic and Enjoy golf . Now I am going to go golfing because I can :)

Stupid is as stupid does.

There have been some people that told me last week that being stupid does not mean your funny. First My act is not me being stupid . IT is me being me and no one else. Second I have worked very hard to put the act that I have together. I have had help from some of the best in the biz. I also think that yes sometime being stupid does work . As long as it is not totally retarded. Take Steve Martin. Most of the stuff he does he will even tell you that it is stupid but that is the point. Well that is off my chest now so enjoy the last video and the next one.

I am totally feeling this.

So I was surping a little on the net and I found this magic blog over at The Magic Vault.
I totally agree with this. I have many fights with people over nock off products on the market. But I love what they say near the end.

"Copying magic DVDs in my opinion is far worse than making a similar product based on a non-patented or non-copyrighted item."

So there you go.

Matt Talks About Getting Focused.

Getting to work.

I just wanted to let you all know that I will be posted a new video blog in the next few days. I have been putting my time toward other things. The next video blog will be all about helping you start to focus on what really needs to focused on. Stop wasting your time on the stupied forums and start working and putting your same 24 hours that I have to good work. Well come back tomorrow. I hope.

Trash vs Professional

I was just talking to my father about the trash in our area. When I say trash I do not mean the trash at your house. I mean the trashy magicians screwing up this business of ours.

There are a few magicians in this area that go out for as cheap as they can and belive they look and are cheap. Because of them I know for a fact that people have turned down bringing in a magician for the next year.

I do not know about you but it makes me mad to see a trashy magician performing. I work my butt off on trying to be as pro as I can and yet others are crap. Sometimes I wish that there was a magic moffia or somthing that would take care of the trash in this biz.

Do not get me wrong I am not saying that when you first start out that you can not be a little unprofessional. We all have to learn. But these guys have been doing for a long time and one of them is like a God on the cafe. I just forgot it is thursdayWell those are my two cents. Like always enjoy magic and enjoy life.
