Hi,
The Sleight of Mind Set Workshop is a one day, intimate learning experience where we will guide you through a number of principles. You'll learn the Principles of Mind Magic, the Framework of Mind Magic; we'll Explore Why and How Illusions Work, look at the role of MMI's (Multiple Moments of Interest, Interaction & Insight) and Thinking Fallacies. Most importantly though, you will Learn And Be Given a Number of Easy and Practical Tricks (with supporting materials) that you can take away with you and start performing and adding to your delivery the next day.
We wanted to make sure you'd get the best out of the one day experience, so we've packed months of one-to-one training sessions and years of our own experience into the day. The themes of the day are Innovation & Creativity, Practically Applied Advantage, Emotional Engagement, Show, Not Tell and the importance of Mystery, Magic and Surprise. For more information on the day, please see mindsways.com/SMS/ and for a brochure of what the day is about, please look at mindsways.com/SMS/#Brochure
TAPPING INTO POPULARITY
On the day we talk about the enduring allure and popularity that mystery, the paranormal and Mind Magic has. Magic is never far out of the popular sphere with Derren Brown filling theatres and drawing large TV audiences. Part of the popularity is down to the fact that it "May just be real". This is also shown by the new blockbuster film, Now You See Me.
This new film is based on the premise of what if the impossible was real. Starring Morgan Freeman, Michael Caine, Mark Ruffalo, Jesse Eisenberg and Isla Fisher, the film shows the hold that magic has over our imagination. It also gives us an insight into how popular magic is, and a fascinating glimpse into what it would be like to have real powers. To see more about the film, please go to mindsways.com/SMS/#NowYouSeeMe.
Today, to stand out we need the personal touch and the sleight of mind set workshop is about tapping into this popularity of mind magic and adding value through your delivery and the personal touch.
Our aim is to make day informative, entertaining and practical for you. People have attended for many reasons including:
Curiosity (just how was that done)
Learning something new
Interest in how the mind works
Adding variety to enliven their presentations
New and different approaches
Something to impress others with
An increased reputation
A channel for their passion and fascination
Wider perspectives and experiences
The real power of Mind Magic and Psychological Artistry lies not with just the tricks, but the effect that the delivery of the tricks have on people, tapping into the emotions of mystery combined with the personal touch and firing off the silent questions. On the workshops and in the SNT kit, we give you the tricks, however, learning to use them with what you do is where the real power lies.
By delivering these tricks, you can evoke the making of the extraordinary. By combining the tricks with the energy of your words, your message and your personality, you make yourself stand out, stimulate fascination and create interest in you. This is when the real magic happens, in the theatre of the minds.
In communications theory the saying "it's not us, its them" has great importance. Likewise in Psychological Artistry and in our Sleight of Mind Set workshops these take on a very important role. For more on this, please go to mindsways.com/SMS/
THE FEEDBACK - What People Say
The feedback from the workshops have been extremely positive, with people (from last weeks workshops) saying things like:
"It really was most enjoyable and enlightening"
"Fantastic day... a great eye opener!"
"Another great course, with plenty to think about and over"
The workshops have been enjoyed and shown to be beneficial to many people over the past year. The events have been attended and proved to be relevant to people from a wide range of backgrounds including entrepreneurs, business consultants, health professionals, coaches of life, performance and sports, therapists, hypnotherapists, trainers etc.
This is an unorthodox approach to understanding human behaviour, illustrating and promoting our messages, and this is where the real power lies. As Marty Neumeier says in ZAG " Be Different - NO Really Different". For more on what people say, please see mindsways.com/WPS/
THEATRE OF THE MIND - Tricks on 3 Levels
On the workshop we uncover tricks, look at making a trick into an effect and making the effect into a piece that works for you. The three levels we work on are:
Effect of a trick - triggers "how did you do that?"
Analysis of a trick - triggers "why does this trick work? Why does the effect happen?"
Practicality of a trick - explores how you can use the tricks
This involves using a combination of Psychology, Neuroscience, Smart Thinking and the ideas, tools and techniques from Mind Magic. The principles and lessons are useful in understanding our belief systems, how we think and act. It is in our minds that we experience emotions, thoughts and actions. These are in turn determined by the silent questions we ask ourselves.
We use Mind Magic effects as a reflection of how the mind works. We use the 3 levels above as a lens to increase our understanding how our minds control our actions, emotions and thoughts. It is through this that our minds tell us stories that justify our actions. For more on this, please see mindsways.com/SMS/
WHAT IS PSYCHOLOGICAL ARTISTRY?
Psychological Artistry is the blending of the science of how we think, and the combination of:
Creating connection, rapport and emotions
Telling stories
Gaining and holding attention
Producing insights
Displaying human nature
Cognition
Show, Not Tell
Multiple Moments of Interest, Interaction and Insights (MMI's)
to create a method for successful communication. Therefore, Psychological Artistry is where science and art meet Mind Magic.

I was reading up on Reiki today and found the 5 Reiki principles for a happy and illness-free life. It is called The Gokai, or in some instances The Gaimen.
Just for today:
Do not be angry
Do not worry
Be grateful and humble
Work with integrity and to enhance your spiritual growth
Be kind to others

Title of photo: Wildlife Photography, Photo (#1)
Photo Number: 1
Objective 3: Elements and Principles of Design
The Principles of Design Demonstrated:
Emphasis: This photo shows emphasis, (although not as well as I wish it did) by blurring most of the photo around (and, unfortunately on) the main subject, the log. The background is blurred well, effectively pushing the eye away and letting focus be set on the detailed moss on the log.
Unity: I feel that this photo shows unity well, everything in the photo “belongs,” most of the photo is either green or brown, which can relate to leaves and moss, bark and dirt, and are both very natural colours. The background is mostly yellow (in some way) which I also feel is a natural colour, but usually thought of as for flowers, but in this case, leaves in autumn.
The Elements of Design Demonstrated:
Line: I feel like the only real line in this photo is the (mostly) straight line that the log creates, although it points off into nowhere, I cannot seem to feel like the left curve of the log leads the line (maybe because it is the side that is more visible, and not as blurred where it starts?)
Colour: I really like the colours in this photo, the light green moss on the log being my favourite. I really enjoy how the blurred background is the only change of colour (besides some of the orangey-red needles on the left side) in the photo! The entire foreground fits a very solid and familiar colour scheme, green and brown, like a tree. I feel that this gives the photo a very nice atmosphere.
Form: I think that the 3D effect in this photo comes from the texture of the moss in the middle of the photo, and in the detailed sprouts on the left side of the photo. Although there is not much shadow on this photo, you can see that these bits of the photo pop out from the log and create their own small spots of shadow.
Space: I think that the positive and negative space in this photo is harder to identify than my others, as the end of the log is blurred and kind of bleeds into the background, and some of the bush beside the log is in detail. The main positive space in this photo is meant to be the log and bush on the left side, but some of the log was blurred along with the very bottom of the bushy area. The negative space was just meant to be the background, but the way that the very front bit of the photo blurred out, that seems like some negative space as well.
Texture: I really wish that the photo has more texture, the middle of the photo, the log, is only textured in the middle. I really wish I had set a higher aperture so I could have a larger depth of field, that way, more of the log would be in focus compared to now, where only the very middle bit has any focus.
Objective 4: Lighting
Type of lighting: This photo was mostly back lighting, the light was streaming into the small area I was in by the area in the back of the photo, and there was a lot of tree cover giving me shade from above.
Objective 5: Post Production
Corrections/adjustments made AND/OR techniques applied: I think that I messed with some curves and sharpened, I cannot remember exactly what I did
Objective 6: Critique
I really like the detail in the middle of the photo, I find the moss very interesting to look at, I really wish that I used a slightly larger depth of field, and maybe focused the camera on the closest part of the log in order to get it all in focus. This is a photo I would really like to take again since I figured out more about depth of field, but I cannot shoot this exact photo again because of all the snow.
Objective 7: Photographic Styles
Type/style of photography: Wildlife Photography
Camera mode Used: I am assuming that I used P mode to take this photo, as I did not know how to use the other modes when this photo was taken.
F Stop Used: 5.6, I did not know how to change this, if I did I probably would have set the depth of field longer so I could have more of this photo in focus, I do not like how the log is blurry in the top and bottom bits, but I still like the photo.
Shutter Speed Used: 1/100 I am not very good with shutter speed, this was probably picked by P mode.
ISO used: 400, I figured that it was a good amount of ISO since it was very sunny but I was underneath some trees, which had some shade.
Exposure compensation: Not used.
Focal length: 40mm, Set from the amount of zoom.

How to Think like Leonardo da Vinci
Seven Steps To Genius Everyday
By Michael Gelb
Dell Publishing, 1998 ISBN: 0385323816
322 Pages
Overview
Leonardo da Vinci is recognized as one of the greatest geniuses of all time. He excelled in many areas such as the creation of the Mona Lisa, The Last Supper and other classic works. Besides art, Leonardo was an architect, mathematician, philosopher, and military planner. Michael Gelb reviews and explains Leonardo’s notebooks, inventions, and works of art. He introduces readers to the Seven da Vincian Principles, essential elements of genius that can be developed. The book is a collection of illustrations, passages and exercises designed to stimulate anyone’s awareness of their own creativity. This summary will briefly explain the seven principles and provide several of the sample creative exercises.
Principles of Good Laboratory Practices (GLP) diselenggarakan pada tanggal 31 Mei - 01 Juni 2012 di Jakarta
1. Unity: This sunflower achieves unity because it's repetitive seeds come together to form a beautiful flower. It is many small parts working together.
2. Balance: The balance I see in this photo comes from the leaf in the bottom-left foreground paired with the leaves in the top-left drawing the eye into the corner.
3. Variety: These glass display balls display variety because of the different plant and rock combinations in each display, and the varied shape and size of the glass containers.
4. Harmony: I believe this photo has harmony because of the off-centered balance of the two flowers, which makes the scene feel candid and natural.
5. Proportion: The cookies fade out of focus as the eye travels down the line, which shows the proportion of the cookies.
6. Contrast: This image contrasts the dark seeds hanging down from a branch vs. the light colors in the background.
7. Rhythm: The parallel lines created by the lampposts and the lens flare creates a rhythm as the lights change in brightness.
8. Movement: This picture uses long exposure to capture the slight movement of the subject.
9. Emphasis: The hard outlines of the leaf contrast the dark wood of the stump, drawing the eye and creating emphasis.
