The Key to Having a Magical Life

Here’s another postcard from the field that caught my fancy.

I think so often in this world people think that being good at business is about being clever, but the thing about business is that it involves people—and people are interested in what’s in your heart.

I have worked at many different things, but one that gave me incredible insight was being a children’s entertainer. Children will automatically want to join in with whatever activity you want them to engage in as long as you look like you’re having a magical time.

If you are following your bliss, they will join in with more enthusiasm than you could have cultivated in an hour worth of telling them how fun things were going to be.

They don’t want to be told what to do. They want to have an adventure.

I think most adults are the same. That is why the most important thing about being an entrepreneur is having a magical life—casting a wonderful spell that enchants the people you come into contact with.

When you do everything with the intention of loving your clients as people, they can feel it and they will in turn love you back. That will love your business too.

This is not a thought out process, but a way of being.

There is so much happiness to be had in giving, receiving and, most importantly, in wonderment. When you are filled with wonder, both of these things are more likely and easy.

I loved the part when you talked about people who seem young are filled with a sense of curiosity. It is definitely true in the people I have met and some appear timeless.

Some people think that wealth is all about how much money you earn, but living in abundance means filling your life up with beauty, appreciation and joy.
