In this video I'll explain the technique I used to get into the Oklahoma Photographic Hall of Fame in my 70s, after taking up photography for the first time.
I'll also explain how I intend to teach children this same technique -- so kids can better retain their natural genius potential and evolve into more intuitive, more creative, more self-assured adults.
Just watch the video and continue reading below
TRANSCRIPT:
Hi everyone,
If you are watching this video you are probably very curious about what I've prepared for your Children. Well, let me assure you that you are in a perfect place and time, coz as promised yesterday, I'm going to reveal all my secrets today.
But before i move on to this, I have an amazing story to tell..
You remember, in my last video, I talked about creativity and inspiration and the Genius Dip and how kids lose this ability as they get older. I also showed you my paintings and pictures and now I want to tell you the short story behind me becoming a professional photographer overnight.
The story goes back in time to 1988. I was doing a class about using more of the mind to produce creative results in San Diego when somebody challenged me and said, "Prove it to us". So I opened the floor to suggestions of how I can prove it to them... as long as it's not something like learning the violin which requires dexterity... you know, at my age and all.
So someone threw out the idea of photography. He challenged me to be creative with photography. So I said, well, I like challenges and said I'll do it. So i bought a camera and went to my hotel. And I got into into a meditative state and thought about being a photographer.
And all of a sudden, out of the blue, I see a guy with a camera and I imagine myself walking up to him and I said, "Who are you?". And he said, "I am a great photographer". And so I said, "Teach me how to do photography". And I know this sounds weird but it really happened exactly like that.
I heard the words, "Plant yourself". I asked him to elaborate. I hear, "Take a lot of pictures."
Well, I opened my eyes and I thought, well okay, lets try. So I'm in San Diego so I decided to go to the Marina. I go down to the rocks and it's slippery and I had no choice but to find firm ground and plant myself. So I thought, hmmm. Now I've to take a lot of pictures.
But I was thinking, well, if I'm planted, I can't move. How would I take a lot of pictures? So I take the camera and start swiveling while taking a lot of pictures. I figured one of the hundred pictures would be good.
So I process the pictures and go back to hotel and lay out all the pictures on the bed to pick the best one. And as I lay it out I start seeing something. It isn't a hundred pictures anymore. It's one huge picture like you've never seen before. So I went out and bought a board and pasted all the pictures. And, yeah, the class was impressed when they saw it.
But that's not where it ends. 6 months later the photo was hanging in the museum of the International Photography Hall of Fame in Oklahoma. And it's still there.
What I've learnt is not only was I able to generate flashes of inspiration for photography, but for a whole range of different skills. This is my art work. I've also written a couple of songs. I also own an internet business I started at 80 years of age that creates a good residual income for me. Yes, I got on the internet at 80. I'm probably one of the oldest guys on YouTube!
An achievement? Yes. But the sad thing is I did this at 78. Why did it take so long? And why is it taking you so long?
Well, I've come to realize this is the wrong way to go about things. Really, kids should be learning this while they are still young so that they never lose their creativity and stay perpetually creative.
What is creativity though? It's a very elusive word for many. Many just talk about it, but don't know how to explain it.
Well, let me tell you. Creativity comes from one thing. It comes from the ability to get ideas from the universal intelligence. Now I know that might sound a bit of a radical statement, but some of the greatest geniuses of our time agrees with that statement.
Edison said, "ideas come from space". It's hard to believe, but it's true. Ideas come from outer space. What I want to teach kids to do is to harness information from two sources: Intuition and Inspiration.
Intuition is that little voice in your head that helps guide you on the right path. Intuition tells you whether you should be friends with someone or avoid that. If you're lost, it acts as a compass. On a bigger scale, it can be used to find your life's purpose instead of going around in circles.
Now the next thing I want to talk about is inspiration. Inspiration is the spark of creativity. The sudden flash of insight to compose a good piece of music, or to paint a picture, or in my case, develop a new form of photography.
Now, what I found is... you don't have to wait till you're 78 to produce creativity through intuition and inspiration.
Now imagine what would happen if your kid could do this. Could he be the next Mozart or the next Edison. Could that flash of inspiration lead them to not just compose a beautiful piece of music or paint a painting, but to invent something that benefits humanity? To help them make better decisions in life? To help them live their life's purpose?
Don't let your kid wait to become an adult. To have to go through problem after problem after problem, and then struggle through adulthood in search of personal development to find the creativity and intuition they lost.
Let them not lose this ability in the first place. And this is what I want to do. This is my mission in life.
I know you must be excited to know what I have in store for you, and I worked really hard to wrap things up yesterday, which as you know was Children's Day. So I don't want to keep you on the edge of your seat for much longer. I'm just going to let the cat out of the bag right now.
I have put together a course for children that will help them keep their creativity and thus their full potential for genius BEFORE they lose it. All the techniques... all 50 years of my experience that have helped hundreds of thousands of adults regain their magic... I am now making available to reach out to children for the FIRST time.
I call it... My Inner Magic. Tomorrow I will be sending you a short presentation on the details of My Inner Magic... so be sure to look out for it. It will have all the juicy details on what I have in store, to help children achieve their true potential through intuition and inspiration.
Stay tuned. And have a blessed day.
INTRODUCING MY INNER MAGIC
I think you're gonna like it....
Because what I've put together is NOT some accelerated learning program that say, just teaches your child to speed read. It is NOT some run-off-the-mill memorization techniques to simply turn someone into a walking encyclopedia. It is NOT some creative expression program to teach your child to paint by numbers.
What I've put together IS NOT a program
It is a never seen before solution for children. It is an all encompassing solution for children to attract what they want in life just by knowing how to use the natural talents that they were born with... before they lose it.
It's the same secret i used when I was challenged by my class to become a photographer...in one weekend.. a challenge that not only did I fulfill, but one that got me into the International Photography of Fame
My name is Burt Goldman. I’m one of those “lucky people” who discovered a secret early in life. For the last 50 years, I have been traveling the world and meeting and studying spiritual masters from every inch of our planet. Now, at the age of 82, I'm ready to share with the world what I have learned. I started this blog to be able to share with you my most valuable teachings and insights I have gained over the past few decades. Here, you'll find plenty of valuable information on meditation, energy healing, spirituality, and my latest revelation, Quantum Jumping. I look forward to connecting with you and I sincerely hope you enjoy being a part of this blog.

The bells may well go jingle-jangle
When their pulling ropes get in a tangle
But let me see clearly your prophetic view
How the coming world will be all brand new.
Conscious thinking may be evolving fast
Not going in circles like the ages past
History we’ve seen has not looked so jolly
So here come people like Eckhart Tolle
Dear A-monk let me tell you clearly,
At first glance I ditched you, very nearly,
Your pitch almost made me start to blubber
Because I saw you nothing but a money-grubber
Jumping on the bandwagon of Internet scams
Like a thousand more, if I buy your plans
I’m one old-timer who’s been baffled before.
Shop-wrecked on many a rocky lee shore.
But (evolving?) eternal hope springs again to view
And I’m looking to discover some facts that are new.
To tell me what kind of field I have to plough.
I’ll start up-town now and buy, “The Power of Now”

After your amazing Mindbox techniques Burt...yes I'm getting great results, I'm really looking forward to
what you have in store for children. A lot of people talk about unlocking creativity etc but it's the same tired stuff I could teach my children myself. You are
the business Burt ! Inspirational. xx
Imagine, believe and achieve.
I heard some songs have similar effects in our brain.
The amazing ability to create positive images and thoughts is of great value too.
I hope we all wake up the best we are.

Hi Burt,
I am looking forward to your news tomorrow. I want to share this with my nephew, who has just finished his High School and is quite lost as to what he should be pursuing as a career and how to go about getting into a professional college. The admission to these colleges is really very very tough here.I hope he can gain some new insight. Also, I am never to old to start learning myself and look forward to starting anew, though i've been teaching for the last 20 years.
Wish you all the very best for your great work

Good morning, Mr. Goldman,
I am excited! I am looking forward to your news tomorrow. My son is 14 and I would love to see his creative juices flowing. He has been bored with school for the past couple of years. He is an A /B student without trying and it is becoming more difficult for school to hold his interest. I would love for him to possess the excitement of learning and realize that he can do anything he sets his mind to do.
Hi Burt
I am really looking forward for the mail tomorrow, i can imagine how interesting its gonna be and to apply it to my children and also share it with other parents.
Hi Burt
I am looking forward to your news tomorrow. I want to share this with my grand-daughters and I hope the eldest can gain some new insight. Also, I am never to old to start learning myself and look forward to starting anew.
I wanted to how much it was going to be. I only can one hundred bucks in my account right now...
Hi Mr. goldman, I'll be looking forward for your "My Inner Magic" tomorrow. I'd like to share this with my nephew who seems to be so bright but lately has been having a hard time at school, it would be great if I could help him retain his genius and someday see him become successful. Also I could gain some insight on this myself since I'm still in my early 20's and I'm just rediscovering the genius potential I had within too.
Dear Mr Goldman
I am very proud of you to make this information available to all of us. Now that you helped us , we are in a position to help many others that find themselves in the same position
many thanks
pieter
