Jason Michaels TV Episode 6

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.

Resilience and Imagination

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.

Jason Michaels TV Episode 4

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 to Live Your Best Life

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!

Resilience and Learning

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?

Resilience and Mindfulness

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.

Book Excerpt - The School Play

I like to talk a lot about doing the impossible. You might say I’m obsessed with it. From magic tricks that appear to be impossible, to overcoming barriers that seem to be - the subject just speaks to me.

In today’s blog article, I wanted to share an excerpt from my book You Can Do the Impossible, Too! where I do something that others thought might not be possible for me to accomplish.

My hope, by sharing this, is that you might see yourself in this story. And if you don’t see yourself exactly, maybe the story will speak to that part of your soul that needs to hear it - because I firmly believe that you can do the things that feel impossible in your life, too…

Tourette Syndrome Talk - Belief

“The things we believe about ourselves always prove to be true.”

That statement, from my program #DOTHEIMPOSSIBLE, can be hard to understand. After all, it would be very easy to debate the point. I guess that’s why I felt it was necessary to provide examples from my life after I made the statement.

For today’s #TouretteTalk I’ve decided to share a short video clip from my talk about why, and how, what we believe can define the way we see ourselves, the actions we take - virtually everything in our lives…

Tourette Syndrome Talk - Embrace Adversity

Yesterday was Independence Day here in the United States of America. Every year, on July 4th, we celebrate the brave, monumental feat that we accomplished 243 years ago - fighting for and claiming our independence.

Our founding fathers fought for freedom. They fought for freedom of religion, freedom of speech, freedom to assemble - all sorts of freedoms they believed were God-given rights. The fought for their freedom against a country they didn’t believe represented them. Talk about high-achievers!

On a seemingly unrelated note, exercise and physical fitness is my hobby. I enjoy going to the gym virtually every day. And for as long as I have been going to the Gold’s Gym in my area I have seen one man in there consistently who has impressed and inspired me.

This man is in the gym all the time. I can count on seeing him at least several times a week. I think it would be safe to say that physical fitness is a lifestyle for him, too. The big difference between him and me (besides the fact that he is in better shape and is more impressive looking than me) is that he wheels his wheel-chair around the gym as he moves from machine to machine getting in a solid workout…

#MotivationMonday - Staying Focused and Positive

Good Morning. It’s Monday and there are things to do. So, let’s tackle #MotivationMonday.

Today’s main question is…

  • How do you stay so focused and positive all the time?

Long story short…I’m not always positive. I deal with frustration, doubt, and sadness, just like you do.

However, when I wake up in the morning, I choose to be positive. I look around at the world and choose gratitude and thankfulness to be alive.

You know, every day is a new day, and with it, brings new challenges and adventures. I choose to be thankful to see what opportunities will present themselves to me.
