After starting a conversation on imagination several weeks ago, I finish it up this week with a short discussion with Nathan Coe Marsh on how to supercharge it. If imagination is the beginning of the act of creation, supercharging your imagination will get you what you want at lightning speed.
It was great fun to visit with my friend Nathan Coe Marsh on Episode Six of Jason Michaels TV. We learned how he fell in love with entertaining audiences, chatted philosophically about being an artist and an entertainer, heard some fun stories from his time on the road, and even saw some magic! I really enjoyed his thoughts on how he works with his clients to craft unique experiences for his audiences.
I also thought it was so cool of Nathan to provide access to us to watch his full show direct from the Magic Castle. If you would like to see him work for a live audience in an exclusive Hollywood members-only club, click here watch the video.

Discussing the power of imagination is one of my favorite things to do. As I say in the video, I believe that imagining something in your life is the first step in the act of creating it.
My question to you is, “What do you want to create in your life?” When you picture yourself living that reality in your imagination, you prepare your mind and body to realize it.
I had a blast visiting with Jessica Jane Peterson in Episode Four! Jessica and I went on several tours in 2018 to entertain the men, women, and families of the United States military. That gave us all sorts of stories to share! We even watched several video clips of her from performances in Italy and Germany. She is such a dynamic and fun performer to watch!
Next up, I share a video clip on the power of imagination and how it aids in resilience from my #DOTHEIMPOSSIBLE program. I really enjoyed hearing Jessica’s thoughts on how imagination has played a role in her success.
We wrapped things up with a video clip of interactive close-up magic that I performed in a wine cellar in Portugal. The card trick blows my spectators’ minds. That beautiful wine cellar still blows mine! BIG thanks to Jessica Jane for being part of Jason Michaels TV Episode Four!
LIVE B-I-G, my friend! B-I-G.
Inspiring people to LIVE B-I-G is my mission and I desperately want it for you.
But why? What does it mean? And how do you LIVE B-I-G anyhow? As a teenager I fell in love with entertaining audiences through acting and the art of magic. I also had Tourette Syndrome, which is a debilitating neurological disorder that manifests itself with uncontrollable body movements and vocalizations. I faced a unique set of challenges in my journey to fulfill my dream of becoming a professional entertainer.
Over the next ten years, I developed a process that helped me defy the naysayers, defeat self-doubt, and live the life that I desperately wanted to live. The result of my decade-long struggle – the powerful LIVE B-I-G system!

My favorite part of what I share in today’s video is when I share that learning is the one inner strength that grows all other inner strengths. Want to be more compassionate? Focus on learning how to be more compassionate. Want to be better at mindfulness? Learn more about mindfulness.
My second favorite part of today’s video is the fact that when you learn something, you can never unlearn it. Much like riding a bicycle, it stays with you.
With that in mind, today is an excellent day to study how learning can help you and me increase our resilience. Whether it is kindness, inner toughness, or any other inner strength, studying how to properly learn in regards to building resilience will help you become the person you are striving to be. So, what do you want to learn today?
My visit with comedy magician, juggler, speaker, and consultant Scott Cantrell was awesome! We chatted about our first meeting almost twenty years ago, what his experience was like performing shows on military bases overseas, and about productivity and marketing. He even teaches everyone a magic trick that you can make up and perform. Thank you for making the time to take part in Episode Three, Scott!
Also in Episode Three, I discuss the importance of learning when it comes to resilience. I share a video clip from my motivational program on the power of belief. Finally, I show a short clip of me performing a card trick during a meet and greet while on my Europe 2018 tour.
I’m sure you know the saying, “you are what you eat.'“ According to researchers, you are what you focus on, as well.
With that in mind, I believe that today is the perfect day to discuss mindfulness. Even though the world has slowed down, we still have many things vying for our attention. Why in the world should we be mindful? And what does that mean?
In today’s vlog, I explain mindfulness and give you some ways to better practice being in the moment. I also share how practicing mindfulness can help us deal with all the emotions that we are dealing with since so many of us are practicing self-quarantining due to COVID-19.

Episode Two of Jason Michaels TV was a blast! My special guest Grace Good shared with us all about her passion for hula hooping and the circus arts. She even performed a card trick over the screen with me! One of my favorite parts about having Grace as my special guest was when she shared her thoughts on mindfulness and hope. Powerful stuff, there. A big thanks to Grace for being an important part of this episode.
I continued my discussion of resilience with a short lesson on mindfulness and a two minute clip from my #DOTHEIMPOSSIBLE program about courage and bravery.
And we ended this week’s episode with a clip from the documentary Magical Time Travelers. In the clip, I perform a poignant and touching magic trick with a piece of thread that focuses on the subject of hope.
Happy Monday Morning! In today’s #MotivationMonday I tackle two questions submitted by viewers…
How can I keep from falling under the labels people put on me?
How can I keep a positive attitude?
Confession: I hate labels. And for the most part, I can’t stand critics either.
People who critique you and try to label you and me are trying to influence the way we see ourselves. When you accept a label as true, you are limiting yourself to whatever you believe that label means. You are allowing someone else to define you. You are handing over your power to someone else. (Just typing those words makes me sick.)
You see, I believe that you and I have almost limitless possibilities. We can live our lives creating ourselves any way we choose. The moment we accept a label, however, we become limited by what we think that label means.
