This book will teach you how to do magic. Actually it's really easy. When I first started experimenting, I made up a little mantra for myself: Magic is Easy, Magic is Fun, Magic is Easy, Magic is Fun. Let's start with a little experiment for you to do.
Step 1: Think about your foot. Either of your feet will do. I don't want to be too too prescriptive here. Choose your left foot or your right foot. Hey, be a rebel and pick your whole legs instead, but try to concentrate on just one, either the left or the right. Right? OK. I'm thinking about my left foot. What are you thinking of? Whatever your answer, just become aware of the thing you've chosen to focus on. Okay saying it like is actually redundant because 'to become aware of' is the same as 'focus on'. Never mind. Don't let your attention stray. Focus on what you have chosen to focus on. By the way it has to be a body part, and preferably a limb or something. I tell you what just do exactly as I say and focus on your left foot. Your LEFT FOOT, okay? Okay. Right. Now everyone is focusing on your left foot.
Step 2: Now wiggle your left foot. Go on. Do it. Do it again.
End of experiment.

What you just did is what I call magic. When you wiggle your left foot you're doing magic. When you smile at someone you're doing magic. Whenever you make any decision whatsoever, it's magic. Do you believe in that kind of magic? Do you realize the magic of making your foot wiggle is no less complicated than the magic of getting away from an abusive spouse, deciding to seek help for your drug addiction, telling the girl you love that you want to marry her, looking for a new job, etc. Insert desire here. Every single thing in your life begins with a decision. A decision to climb Mount Everest isn't more difficult than a decision to move your left foot. Climbing Mount Everest is more difficult that wiggling your left foot, but making the decision isn't hard at all. You can do it sitting down, with your eyes closed, in the middle of the night, on the way to a movie, while driving your car. It isn't even dangerous. You can make a decision while driving your car without causing an accident, the way you would if you were using a cellphone without the hands free kit.
Making decisions are totally harmless and fun. After you've made the decision though, many other things need to happen before the magic happens. What happens between the moment of decision and the moment of relaization is what this book is about.

This book is not a self-help book. This book is a book about magic. If you want a self-help book, please put this book down right now and browse a little to the left or right. You're sure to find what you need just a couple of titles away. If you don't believe in magic, please put this book down, go home and wash your hands, because you've just gotten some fairy dust on you. Go on now. Go! I mean it! DO NOT READ ANY FURTHER.

To those of you who are left, let's get right to the point. Magic really exists. In fact, there is not only one kind of magic in the world, there are many different kinds. These days fairy godmothers seem to be on strike, because I don't know about you, but I've been waiting for mine to show up and so far she hasn't. I had high hopes about knights in shining armor but it seems they've been delayed somewhere by dragons. Well never mind, this book is even better than a knight or a fairy.

Nami: It's hot.
Jinho: Let's go swimming this afternoon.
Joon: I can't. I have a headache.
Nami: What day is it today?
Joon: It's Monday.
Nami: Let's go shopping. Today is market day.
Joon: OK. Good idea. Wait. I will write it in my book.

Joon writes: Monday July 5th: shopping with Nami and Jinho.

At school: Nami, Jinho and Joon are sitting in their classroom. Joon is looking for his pen.

Joon: O no! Where is my pen?
Nami: Isn't it in your bag?
Joon: No!
Jinho: What does it look like?
Joon: It's green.
Nami: Was it expensive?
Joon: Yes. It was 4000 won.
Jinho: Wow. That's expensive.
Nami: This morning you had your pen. We were walking on York Street. Did you drop it? Is it on the street?
Joon: I think so. O no!
Jinho: You can buy a new pen at the market this afternoon.
Joon: OK.

After school. At the market. The children are looking at pens in the cheakmungu.

Nami: How much money do you have?
Joon: I have 10 000 won.
Jinho: Wow. You are rich! What does your father do?
Joon: My father is a doctor.
Jinho: O I see.
Nami: Buy a cheap pen. If you lose it it will be OK.
Joon: I like expensive pens.
Jinho: A cheap pen is the same as an expensive pen. Put your money in the bank.
Joon: OK. Good idea.
