For my mother, Carol, who never said, It cannot be done, and my wife, Cherie, who said, Is that all?

For my mother, Rhoda, who read me Treasure Island, and my wife, Stella, who can persuade with the best of them.

Id like to thank my wife, Cherie, who knew I had potential when it was well hidden; my amazing children, Chanelle, Briana, and Sterling, who every day teach me what life is really about; my mother, Carol Bauer, and my father, Stephen Shoyer; my adoring grandfathers, Albert and Duffy; and my closest friends, Bill Bakoyni, Larry Becker, David Borys, Gary Lamers, Eric Maurin, Dale Penn, Jason Randal, David Stahl, and Jon Stetson. Without their ongoing support, the journey toward getting what Ive always wanted would have been lonely. Id like to thank my life teachers, Jack Chanin, Paul Diamond, Joe DeLion, Gary Hunter, Hidy Ochiai, Ron Praver, Benny Ray, and Gregg Webb; the Kenin Coin & Stamp Shop Magic Department when I was eleven; the staff of Carnival Cruise Lines when I was thirteen; and my publicist, Phil Lobel, who has worked brilliantly with the media to get the word out about me.

Id also like to thank my co-author, Mark Levy, who is a writing god. Working with Mark is the only way my techniques and philosophy could have ever been transferred so expertly to the page. He climbed inside my world, and became a friend as well.

Life has dealt me a great hand, and the cards will remain in play until my last breath.

Id like to thank my wife, Stella, whose love and support has kept me going; my mom, Rhoda; my brother, Paul; my sister, Joyce; and, all my other amazing relatives, like Gil, Irwin, and Joan. I thank my friends whose wisdom helped Joel and me write this book: Dick The Guru Axelrod, Renee Babiewich, Larry Becker (for introducing me to Joel), Steve Theres a peculiarity in my shoe Cohen, Patti Danos, Kevin Daum (for a twohour conversation that made it all clear), Christopher Dilts and his hair, Jack Foster, Bob The Happy Skeptic Friedhoffer, Michael Leonardo Gelb, Nathan Gold, David Ferris Buehler Goldsmith, Michelle Herman, Paul Harris, Robert Short Sentences Jacobs, Mac Vegas, baby! King, Paul Lemberg, Steve How did it walk? Sanderson, Rich Schefren, Adam Snukal, Ken Swezey (who was excited by our book concept before anyone else, and whose enthusiasm gave the PitchMind rocket a lift into orbit), and Karl Weber. Also, thanks to our literary agent, Muriel Nellis, and her assistant, Jane Roberts, to everyone at Wiley, with a big shout out to Matt The Nurturer Holt and Tamara The Transylvanian Hummel, and to Claire Huismann and the killer staff at Impressions Book and Journal Services. Also also, Id like to thank my pets. When youre writing eleven hours a day with no humans in sight, a bark, a meow, or a tweet can be awfully comforting. Bless you Kuma, Jofu (Fuzio), Tiger, and Betsy.
