The Real Vikram Deol
Raised in a small country city in the middle of nowhere, voted by the high school moms to be a failure, you wouldn't expect Vikram to have sold millions of dollars of Cutco and hundreds of millions of dollars in Real Estate. But if the country boy Vikram learned the skills to sell… YOU CAN TOO!
Don't doze off; I'm not that cool, I promise.
My life has always been like a funny story, the type that when you least expect it, takes the strangest turn. I've always been a curious boy (some say a troublemaker), and that always got me in pretty unexpected situations. I went from hustling the 4th-grade jog-a-thon to amass over $6,000 in donations to win a Sega Genesis, to telling my Hindi teacher in Indian boarding school that I'd get my parents to sponsor his visa in only 6th grade, to even selling pot to my frat and schoolmates in college (shh, don't tell the cops).
Those experiences showed me a lot of lessons, but most importantly, they taught me that mastering the art of selling is key to success. My sales journey kicked off big at 17—pulling in $7,420 in my first week at Cutco, leading a high-performing office the following summer, and venturing into 7 businesses. I flipped homes, rode in a snazzy 'rice rocket' car featured in movies, and scored $250,000,000 in home sales within 6 years.
I've worked with legends like Tony Robbins and Sharran Srivatsaa while investing nearly seven figures in self and business development. Beyond business, you'll find me at the gym, racing down hills on 2 wheels, challenging the mind in ice baths, meditating, and exploring the world. But life's tapestry isn't always woven with silken threads; it's a turbulent sea. A marriage gone sour left me broken and questioning my own worth. Depression cast its long shadow, a dark period where the bottle became a refuge. Health scares and financial rollercoasters, I've always believed the best is yet to come.
In 2018, I met Bedros Keuilian, whose leadership surpassed wealth in my admiration. Joining MDK's "Project" sparked a new journey of self-reflection, eclipsing my transformative year with Tony Robbins.
I'm currently traveling all over Latin America and living in Medellín, Colombia to fulfill a bucket list dream that I had. Being able to work, travel, and help others has been nothing short of a miracle from above. Living abroad after having a privileged life has allowed me to expand and grow in ways I feel grateful for daily.
“Never Peak. The Best is Yet to Come.”

The smartest choices I have made:
Believing in a grander vision
Surrounding myself with growth-focused individuals
Investing in coaching and mental health
Never surrendering, only slowing down, never bowing to a typical job
Embracing change, burning bridges, and never looking back
Recognizing today is just a snapshot, and I can change the angle at any time.
