A man I respect greatly shared some ideas about some stuff we chatted about a month or so ago… I am honored to call him friend and “Life Changing Master Of The Universe!”
HERE is part of the share… to read the entire thing, you want to go to “The Dean’s List, Your University of Success” and join in the conversation…
CHET:
The shows are not about me anymore, nor are they about the mentalism — Mentalism is the tool by which I’ve been educating people about diabetes control, getting over their fears of insulin, etc. They honestly listen and learn much better with the entertainment than without it. And everyone has been asking me to come back. “Do you have a program about heart disease?” “Can you teach us how to motivate ourselves to exercise?” Etc.
I’m going to have to take a few weeks off (I don’t know when!) to prepare new shows along these new themes. Man oh man, I get to perform mentalism AND save lives! How cool is that?
Roooock Oooon Brother Man! You KNOW my passion is for just this perspective… THANK YOU for sharing!
No offence to those who don’t yet know the pleasure and passion for ‘doing your dream’ and “USING” entertainment to get there, as well as the RUSH that accompanies it, PLUS it is the most truly effective way to accomplish real success in the long haul are just plain missing-out of the immense joy of knowing we are really helping people in real, tangible ways!
YES, just good, old-fashioned ‘entertainment’ helps people in some way as well, but to be able to help facilitate real, lasting life transformation is something that will change the world for the better, even if it is one person at a time!
Funny thing is… most of the time, we never really ever know what true impact it has long-term other than when good ‘people let us in on the magic’ per!
I JUST got another one of those “letting me in on the magic” type notes from a relationship that I have not seen or heard from in over 25 YEARS!

Hi Dean,
I remember you from about 1983 in San Jose. I went to an elementary school… Lone Hill. You used to perform your magic there. (Note: It was my “Character Education Educational Assembly & Fund Raising Family Show)
Anyway, It’s good to see you are still entertaining as you did then. You never know what kind of positive impact you have on others. I’m one of those school kids (now 38) that remembers your shows and help at that school. Thank you for being a blessing to me all of those years ago!

I was BLOWN-AWAY! Nearly three full decade later… and he remembers the impact and find me on Facebook to tell me! Sure, this kinda’ thing happens, but not every-day, and it still blows me away every time it happens!
Whoo Hoo, Holy Cramoly… gotta love it!
Yeah, it was a FUN and ENTERTAINING program, but the POINT was the message! At some point, many of us will figure out that magic, music, entertainment is just a tool (a amazingly powerful tool, but a tool non-the-less) to impact and change people’s lives and THEN ‘watch-out’, you will become unstoppable on so many levels!
The killer news is, this applies to just about every market, so there really are no limits to the value, impact and contribution you can have… now THAT’S a “legacy”!
This week alone, besides using my magic and music, we are using our Game Show (The WOW-We-Zowee Won Something FUN Show!) for weekend services in church to impact & transform peoples lives… forever and beyond! – Not bad for some silly game show eh’?
Thinking Of YOU and Your “BIG $uccess rEvolution”!
I am at your service and in HIS Service,
Deano (Helping YOU $ucceed!) in Reno
