In this video, Alex Hormozi shares his personal story of losing everything, including his gym business and money, and how he bounced back to build a $100 million company.

He talks about the struggles he faced, including loneliness, sleeplessness, and financial setbacks, and how he overcame them through desperation and hard work.

He also discusses his mindset of focusing solely on making money and how it drove him to success, even at the expense of work-life balance and personal relationships.

• Starting from scratch was incredibly difficult, with a lonely and sleepless life in a warehouse with no AC and concrete walls.
• He lost everything after putting all his money into a new venture that got shut down, and had to deal with personal issues like his mom getting sick and a DUI.
• He turned things around by selling his secrets and switching to licensing, making 100k in four days and eventually building a company worth 200 million with 120 employees.
• He achieved this by taking everything out of his life that was not business, not caring about work-life balance, and working all hours of the day.
• He learned from his struggles and focused on building his company with complete alignment and rocket fuel.
