If you could rewind time all the way back right up until the point you first started out in magic, whatever type of magic it may have been, if a Fairy flew down a offered to grant you three techniques in magic, what would they have been?

Only want to know 'cos I'm nosey!

easy.

presentation skills.
misdirection / concealment.
and the ability to build props for my fertile imagination.

confidence
misdirection
smooth handling

Army,

If only. But fortunately you only get your 3 wishes with lots of experience. And that stops young inexperienced magicians taking the bookings from experienced magicians who have gone through all the pain of practice and practice.

Unfortunately, there is nothing to replace practice and experience at practicing your magic to the public.

But it doesn't hurt to have a wish list. Mine is that I should have turned Pro many years ago.

I don't have a fairy godmother.

But I've got an uncle you have to keep your eye on! LOL!

incredible dexterity and sleight of hand
misdirection
the ability to connect with a spectator

but thats cheating so...
