What is the “modern life disease” and why does it make successful people feel empty?

Dan Martell 0:00
Modern life is a fing disease. If you woke up tomorrow and you had a hundred supercars sitting there, but every person you love was gone, you would trade it in a heartbeat to have them back. The gurus out there will tell you how to fing grind. Technically, that's not bad advice. There are seasons in your life where you have to show up and you have to attack. The disease is when that season turns into a year that turns into two, and then this becomes an award. You're gonna wake up in 10 years and realize nothing's changed. I know this because I got there, built the business, hit the number, and looked around at life and realized in every direction it wasn't working. And then I looked at people at the highest level, the richest people, people like Gary Vee, who absolutely puts in the time but shows up for his family and cares about the people in his life, people like Jesse Itzler, who is literally a grown.

own camp counselor. Everything he does, he makes it fun. Mark Cuban, billionaire, courtside at every one of his Mavericks games, living the best life. They're richer than every guru that tells you to grind and grind and grind. And they're having way more fun than all of them. Because the people that are winning the biggest are the ones growing in every part of their life, not just their bank account. And I felt this myself. The faster I Grew every other pillar of my life, the faster my business and the bank account grew too. That's why today I'm going to show you exactly how to make sure every part of your life keeps growing so you never end up rich but miserable. To me, there's seven pillars, and the first one isn't about the business or the money.

the money. I know that because it's the first place that everybody starts, and it's the first symptom of modern day life disease. Because when the money is the Reason you quit the second it doesn't show up or it gets hard. So we need to start with the one that helps us decide if we want to get out of bed or not. After exiting, not one, not two, but three companies. And anybody in my life would have said, Dan, you've won. And yet I felt like there was a massive hole. There was something missing. So I reached out to a friend who I knew could help, and I went to Peru. And here I was, traveling around visiting orphanages, hiking through the mountains, contemplating on big life questions, and then spending three days reflecting inside.

Silence around what this whole thing meant. It would have been easy for me to think about the next business to start, the investments I want to make. How I was going to create more. And the question that cracked me wide open was the one asking me, who do you want to help avoid or get through the pain faster? Because it's not about the things. If it was about the stuff, then I wouldn't have this like feeling inside, this emptiness. And that's when I realized and I gave myself permission because it wasn't easy. to make the decision to help at risk youth. That was my story. That was my journey. That was my pain. The moment I made the decision and I wrote it down on paper, my whole being shifted. Only 10 years ago, nobody knew the story of my addiction, my teenage years, the challenges that I went through as a kid.

And now if you meet me and talk to me for five or six or 10 minutes, I'm gonna share that with you because it's it's it's what's made me. I'm here to help every young person not feel broken. You might know me as a guy that's gonna teach you how to make money or have a lot of followers on social media, but I'm telling you, that's just the byproduct. Product of what I just said. And when sh gets hard and I don't want to get up, and I'm like, why am I dealing with this problem yet again? It's not about me. It's about the example that I get to be for the kids that are paying attention. The moment I stopped making about myself and started making about other people, the bank account, the life, the resources, they all showed up.

A lot of people have goals and they have targets, but what they don't have is they don't have a mission behind.
