    Eric Walton

    Welcome back to "The Art of Making Things Happen" with your host Steve Sims. Today, we have an extraordinary guest joining us—Eric Walton, a renowned mentalist and magician with over 25 years in the magic world, and 15 years dedicated to mentalism. Eric has captivated audiences globally with his astonishing performances, often blending illusion and psychological insight. In this episode, Eric dives into the fascinating world of mentalism, drawing connections to iconic figures like Sherlock Holmes and Chris Voss, but clarifying his expertise lies in creating powerful illusions rather than true paranormal abilities. We’ll explore how his journey in magic, which started later in life at age 30, has been shaped by overcoming imposter syndrome—a topic Eric intriguingly links to his performances, highlighting its paralyzing effect on one's potential. Eric will share anecdotes from his acclaimed shows, including a moment he revealed his act as an illusion to draw a connection to imposter syndrome, an idea inspired by a conversation with Steve. We'll also discuss how showing vulnerability by acknowledging his own impostor feelings has made his performances even more impactful, resonating deeply with his audiences. Additionally, Eric touches on the important production elements that make a performance memorable, the increasing presence of female magicians in the industry, and his commitment to animal rights and veganism. If you're intrigued by the art of mentalism or have ever battled with feelings of inadequacy, this episode is a must-listen. So, sit back and prepare to be inspired by the incredible insights and engaging storytelling of Eric Walton.

    My Secret Weapon from 1999

    welcome back to another episode of Steve's Rants! I'm your host, Steve Sims, and today I've got a fascinating topic lined up for you. Recently, I had the pleasure of spending some time at Chuckwalla Valley Raceway with my son Henry. While I was there, I got my hands on a 1999 Aprilia RS 250—a bike that might not scream performance on paper but is an absolute crucible for honing riding skills. This little 250 cc machine is devoid of modern technology—no ABS, no electronics, just raw riding. It's light, slow, and for someone like me who's a bit on the heavier side, it's hard work. But that's exactly why it's such a phenomenal tool for becoming a better rider. In this episode, I'll be sharing my thoughts and experiences on pushing myself beyond comfort zones to truly master what we've got, and then using those skills to become even better when we do utilize technology. We'll be tying this all back to entrepreneurship, personal growth, and why sometimes you need to step back and challenge yourself without the aid of tools to really see where you stand. So stick around because we've got a lot to unpack today. Let's get started!
