Actively Passive Confusion

Written by: Jonathan

It's Tuesday morning so it's time for another video. This one focuses on trade shows, but the idea applies in all sorts of places. The idea is that most people are actively working on promoting their business, their side hustle, their thing. But they're spending their time on passive things that still require their perfect […]

Negotiation Magic

Written by: Jonathan

How does a magician negotiate the experience of doing magic? They have to know what they're going to do, first off. "What's the root idea of this demonstration?" Then they have to understand the perspective of the audience. "Where are they sitting and what can they see from that angle?" Then they have to have […]

Trompe-l'œil

Written by: Jonathan

That word in the title is not a mistake. It's French. And it's a fancy term I learned back in college when I was getting my degree in art. Tompe l'oeil means "to fool the eye" and the term became popular in the 1800's even though the technique had been in use for a couple […]

Lucky Or. . .

Written by: Jonathan

Four leaf clovers bring good luck, right? And this is a four leaf clover I found this morning. That means I'll have good luck! But, here's the thing, I find four leaf clovers all the time. In fact, I saw three or four other clovers between the house & the curb as I brought in […]

Written by: Jonathan

We all know that propaganda is something bad that's done by bad people. So, let me ask you, why do we all know that?

Keep Practacing

Written by: Jonathan

I've been using a great little camera (Sony ZV-1) for the past year or so. I've shot footage in Dubai (which I still have to figure out what to do with). I've taken it on a zip line. I've taken it on tour all over the country. And I keep it on full auto, for […]

Espanso: Frivolous Friday

Written by: Jonathan

Let me introduce you to the world of text expanders. Imagine you write the same sentence, reply, or even emoji all the time. Maybe 100's of times a month. What if you could write a short little cue word that would then "expand" into the full sentence? Useful for affiliate codes, URLs, boiler plate reply […]

Ugh. What An Idiot.

Written by: Jonathan

Me. I'm the idiot. Again. This weekend I had an engagement at this incredible resort hidden away in the mountains of North Carolina. Anytime I travel I like to bring my fancy camera, selfie stick / tripod combo, and shotgun mic to make a vlog / business advice video. And I brought all of that. […]
