Welcome, young divination student!
Misdirection is an art, not a science. It's like trying to thread a needle while juggling chainsaws blindfolded.
But seriously, it's when you deliberately mislead people into doing what you want them to do, without actually telling them what you're doing.
Example: you're at a dinner party, and you want someone to spill the punch on you. You ask them to get you a refill, "accidentally" spilling the punch in the process.
It's all about subtle, clever manipulation. Like a master thief, you're always one step ahead.
Try this simple exercise: ask someone to pass you a book, then "accidentally" drop it, and watch as they rush to help you pick it up.
Or, try this one: ask someone to meet you at the park, then "forget" to show up, and see how long it takes them to notice.
