Into Woods by Bill Roorbach
Everyone faces difficult decisions in work and life; seemingly insurmountable obstacles and choices that appear unfair or unreasonable when thrust upon us. At the same time, there are those who never seem to give up no matter what and always find a way to come out on top. In many cases, success and failure can be traced back to a simple mindset: one that refuses to give up at the first barrier and says It can be done when I find the way.When a magician wants to create a miracle onstage, that mindset is just the first step. Magicians don't always think of things like normal people would be miracles require miraculous thinking, and the ability to ignore the limitations of everyday life.Award-winning illusionist and author Brian Reaves is ready to pull back the curtain and let you in on the secrets that will show you how easy it may be to solve that impossible problem by thinking like a magician, ready to construct that next big illusion onstage.What if the impossible problem really isn't?And what if you are the one to finally solve it?
