What is magical as opposed to spiritual thinking?

from Authentic Living · host Andrea Mathews

Many—oh so many—of us are caught up in magical thinking without knowing it. We are magically thinking that we'll be able to make the abusive husband stop abusing by being a good wife. We are magically thinking that overprotecting our children will help them to arrive at adulthood knowing how to manage life. We are magically thinking that the hounds at the financial doors will just go away if we keep running our vision boards. Collectively we magically thought when we agreed to lower the standards for mortgages and remove the financial rules for Wall Street financiers. And quite often we use magical thinking as a very poor substitute for spiritual thinking. But how do we know? Aren't we taught to believe that anything is possible? Aren't we taught to believe that we can move mountains with a mustard seed of faith (or vision boarding and affirming)? This show is going to clarify the difference. Don't miss it.
