Too many people confuse real magic with magical thinking. Real magic isn't a trick and it transforms our lives. Magical thinking is denial. Real magic is what happens when we break old belief patterns and have the courage to employ the native laws of the Universe

About This Quote

Magic is a creative process in which something miraculous happens. The word magic has come to mean the impossible and the imponderable. It is a sense of wonder and amazement at the inexplicable, and a vehicle for human ingenuity. Magical thinking is very common and we all do it from time to time, but we need to know when we’re doing it and why we’re doing it. Magical thinking plays on beliefs that can be both limiting and self-destructive. Real magic transforms our lives by giving us freedom of choice, new perspective, and inner peace.

Magical thinking denies freedom of choice, blocks perspective, and brings us into an unconscious state of mind. Magical thinking can be very destructive and lead to negative emotions and behaviors. Magic is what happens when we break old belief patterns and have the courage to employ the native laws of the Universe.
