The best friend you can have while learning street magic, as Sean Connery would say, is "Confidence, confidence, confidence." Of course, he was talking about how to be successful with women, but whatever. It applies just the same to Street Magic.
Why? Because you're going to be scared of screwing up a trick, and sometimes you will. You're going to be scared that someone will spot what you're doing, and sometimes they will.
But if you want to learn street magic, you shouldn't be scared. You should be having fun. Of course you're going to be nervous, but it's that same nervousness that makes the reaction when you do the trick right absolutely delicious!
If you can have the confidence to go out there, do the tricks for people, and build up your experience, you're only going to get better. You'll become a better performer and a better trickster. If you keep at it, you'll become one of the greats.
But you've got to have the confidence to pull of the tricks when you're just starting. It's ok to be nervous, just don't let it stop you. Please.
