How To Rebuild After Losing Everything: Dhar Mann - Four story mansions, an exotic car for every day of the week and money coming in faster than you could spend it is most people’s idea of success…
And that’s exactly what Dhar Mann had.
By 25 years old, Dhar had already built a business that gave him that lifestyle, two seperate times.
But each time, he watched the whole thing crumble to pieces, leaving him with no money, a severely damaged reputation and living in a 300 square foot apartment with a roommate.
Taking that kind blow one time is enough to cripple pretty much anyone, let alone taking that blow multiple times.
But in this truly inspirational conversation, you’ll see how Dhar not only dusted himself back off but has gone on to build a new 8 figure company in under 2 years.
Not only that but Dhar will reveal some massive life lessons to lower stress, improve your relationships and protect your business from the start.
Quote I Love: “Normal is getting dressed in clothes that you buy for work and driving through traffic in a car that you are still paying for - in order to get to the job you need to pay for the clothes and the car, and the house you leave vacant all day so you can afford to live in it.”
Let’s help these people.
A Revelation: Choosing Your Pain - I listened to a podcast about an “accidental” millionaire. The host told the story of an engineer who lived an incredibly modest and in my opinion, boring life. He never strove to be in management, never had crazy hobbies, never did much…
But he did work hard, have a small six figure income and stayed steady.
Over the years he always invested into his index funds and just left them alone. Nothing special, nothing erratic, nothing fancy. Just consistency.
And at 55 he had paid off the modest house he and his wife bought, had over a million dollars in his retirement accounts was excited to keep working until he no longer could.
Listening to his story helped me realize that if “peace” was my goal, I could stop right now. And with a small amount of effort, we probably all could.
Ashley and I could go get marketing jobs paying six figures each, we could work 9-5, live a modest life and completely forget about the stress of running a business, dealing with haters and the pain of “desire.”
We could live comfortably while investing slowly into our index funds and mimic what this “accidental” millionaire did.
Sometimes when I think about my “why” I come back to money in some way. I think “I’m doing this so that I can make so much money that no one in my family ever has to worry about money.”
But when I dig into it deeper, what I’m really saying is - “I want mental peace.”
I want to stop striving.
But here’s the thing, if that was truly the goal - to have “peace” - we could stop.
So why do we keep striving, while lying to ourselves?
Because we’re not after peace.
We’re after growth, contribution and impact.
Growth is the lifeblood of the soul and contribution is it’s brother.
Sometimes I despise the chaos of life and chase after peace. Only to find it and desire chaos.
So I came to the conclusion that I will no longer tell myself I’m after more money to have more “peace”.
Not only is it a moving target but it’s a stupid goal.
I’m after more personal growth and contribution to the world.
With that comes chaos.
I’m deciding to embrace the chaos instead of fighting it. After all, most entrepreneurs THRIVE off of change, evolution and a form of “chaos.”
Talk soon,
