WHO IS DEEPAK MAHTO?
I am Deepak Mahto — an entrepreneur by heart, a teacher by passion, and a lifelong student by choice.
Born in a small village, raised around simplicity, and shaped by a series of hard experiences.
From cycling kilometres to attend coaching classes…
to facing academic failures, and family responsibilities at a young age…
from rebuilding my confidence again and again…
I smile even in my worst days,
not because life never hit me hard…
but because I know the story isn’t over yet.
If you’re here to understand who I truly am, this is the simplest answer:
I’m a man on a journey — a journey of learning, evolving, failing, winning, and embracing life with gratitude.
MY JOURNEY
From a Student to a teacher, to a labour at construction site, to a founder. My life has not been easy. But it has been meaningful.
Where It All Started
I was born and grew up in a quiet village in Bihar —far from the noise of cities, far from modern access, and far from the opportunities most people take for granted.
To give you an idea of where I come from, electricity reached my village in 2012.
So you can imagine the kind of place I started from.
My family was not rich. But compared to many families around us, we were doing well. My father worked hard to give me and my younger sister a better life and upbringing.
But even in that simplicity, something inside me refused to stay limited.
I was hungry to learn.
The First Dream — Engineering
When I was in school, in my friend circle, whenever we talked about what we would do after school, I always used to say one thing —
“I will do engineering.”
Honestly, I still don’t know how that word came into my mind. Nobody in my family was an engineer. I didn’t fully understand what engineering meant.
But it became my dream.
After 10th, I went to Hajipur, a small town near my village, for intermediate studies. That was the first time I stepped outside my comfort zone.
That’s when I learned that to become an engineer, you have to clear an entrance exam called JEE.
So I started preparing.
I had:
Big dreams
No proper guidance
No structured system
Not enough discipline
And the result was simple.
I couldn’t even clear JEE Mains.
That failure still hurts. Dreaming and achieving are two very different things.
I failed to clear JEE. My family was not financially strong enough to afford private engineering.
And while I was trying to figure out what to do next, something powerful happened — the internet revolution.
The Turning Point — The Internet Revolution
I was using the internet before. But now it has become more affordable and easily accessible.
For the first time, I had access to information beyond textbooks.
new ideas,
new perspectives,
new beliefs.
Through the internet, I came across entrepreneurship.
I started learning how companies like Google, Microsoft, Apple, and Facebook were built — how a single person or a small group of friends built something that changed the world forever.
And I started thinking — if they can build something, why can’t I?
But my decision wasn’t only about ambition.
I had seen people around me struggling financially, infact our whole state was behind and still is. I felt I should contribute in whatever way I could.
Entrepreneurship felt like a very powerful way to do that.
Why Entrepreneurship?
There were two clear thoughts in my mind.
First, I wanted to improve the situation around me in whatever way I could.
Second, I didn’t want to spend my life searching for a job. I wanted to build something that could create jobs.
And honestly, I used to think —
Even if I fail to create jobs for others, at least I can create one for myself.
But dreaming of entrepreneurship and building something are two very different things.
The First Real Step — Teaching
I wasn’t from a rich family. My father was working hard to support us. And there I was, sitting in Hajipur, dreaming about entrepreneurship without even knowing what exactly I would do.
At some point, I realised I could not just sit and ask my father for money.
So, with two friends, I decided we should at least earn enough to manage our daily expenses and rent.
But what could we do?
We were just intermediate-pass students.
We realised the only thing we could do was teaching.
So we had two options:
Teach home tuition
Start a small coaching centre
We chose to start a coaching centre.
The reason was simple:
In home tuition, income grows only if you give more time.
In a coaching centre, you can teach more students at the same time.
It was my first practical lesson in leverage — even though I didn’t know that word back then.
That’s how I started teaching.
I realised I could explain concepts with clarity.
I found satisfaction in helping students understand physics and mathematics — not just as a subject, but as a way of thinking.
Teaching wasn’t a career choice.
It was a moment of self-discovery.
It taught me leadership, communication, and responsibility.
I genuinely enjoy teaching. I still teach; I believe teaching is one of the best professions in the world.
It also taught me something deeper:
Growth feels meaningful only when you uplift others along the way.
From Failure to Determination
I have seen far more failures than successes.
I tried many things. Most of them did not succeed.
I work on many different business ideas. None of them worked the way I imagined.
There was a time when I worked as a labour at a building construction site for several months.
I borrowed money from friends to survive. Slowly, I went into debt.
There were multiple periods when I went through depression.
My friends supported me a lot during that time. My family didn’t fully understand what was happening. They just knew something was not right.
That phase changed me.
Failures removed my overconfidence.
Debt taught me responsibility.
Depression forced me to understand myself deeply.
WHAT I DO TODAY
I run a marketing and automation agency.
I teach. I read. I create.
Improving myself and people around me — physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually.
And through this website, I shared the story of a guy who refused to stop.
