Default I call this something else

Thanks for the info above.

I think what is called redirection is simply misdirection in the magic world... and yes I did it all the time. However, I found that having to constantly create situations that I could manipulate this way and that way was too time consuming when planning shows and events. It is probable the reason I followed one of my famous friend's advice about doing family and kid shows.

These kid shows were much more fun and paid BETTER than my nightclub work of even my corporate shows! When I switched to these types of shows, even the corporations paid me MORE money. I found my niche.

Now, redirecting someone might not be the same as misdirection, per se because actively moving someone away from what they are doing is not the same as what you, yourself are doing while misdirecting. Ha! Did I confuse a few folks ?

Nowadays, when I want to help someone, I pile on the benefits to them if I help them and show them what continues to happen when I don't assist.
