Personal Details

Bio

My name is Aristos Michalis, and I've devoted the past 3 years of my life to delving into personal development and self-improvement. I find people fascinating, and there's nothing more exciting to me than knowing what makes us tick. The secret to our success is often times us if we allow ourselves to get out of our own way. In short, I break down the means for success using methods from mentors, and how to break fixed mindsets to build purpose, beliefs, and to make a life out of living.

My family never truly had money. Our Christmas mornings were somber, and usually filled with apologies, not presents. We struggled through most of my childhood, and when my family broke apart leaving myself, my brother, and my mother, I knew I had to make a difference by being the difference. I caddied from the age of 11 to make ends meet, but realized in my early 20's the hidden vault of value locked away within the minds of those I caddied for. I even more excitedly realized that the quality of our life is directly proportional to the quality of questions that we ask, and the courage we possess to ask them. My life began to transform when I decided to remake myself into the person I not only desire to be, but the person I deserve to be.

I began making content on Instagram to build an audience, and over the past two years, built an audience of 50k followers by delving into personal development through a candid lens, and helping people achieve lasting results by helping them realize they are the author of their own story. My content has inspired tens of thousands, and saved the lives of several young men, which showed me that I am on the right path.

I wrote an E-Book (SH1FT) on the five fundamental truths I have found within Neuroscience, Psychology, and my own personal experiences, to completely shift your mindset into one that serves you. A mindset that allows you to grow and flourish by seeing the world through a different lens. (This book is available for free directly through my Instagram @AristosMichalis)

To become who you want to be, you must be who you want to become. As you're reading this you might find yourself reflecting on your hidden potential, and I'd implore you to do so. There is an infinite amount potential locked away in the vault that is your mind- you simply need the right tools to tap into it, as a surgeon requires a scalpel, not a buzz saw.

Making The Difference By Being The Difference

An in depth dive into what it takes to become the person we so deeply desire to be. Step by step we break down why we think the way we do, the Art of Unlearning, and how to rewrite the story that we are the very author of.

It isn't uncommon for listeners to find a sense of purpose and belonging as they understand not only themselves, but those around them better. As we debunk myths and reveal the truth, we drill even further into what is required of us to build the life we deserve, fundamentally and methodically.

Curiosity & Cats

Curiosity never killed the cat. It had 9 lives after all. We delve into the very core of the human condition, and unveil the truth within curiosity, cautiously.

We refer to our youth as the "Golden Era" because everything was new and exciting. The gift of curiosity bled from us as we climb trees with scraped knees, excitedly ready for our next adventure as we look at the world in awe through uncorrupted eyes. Part of us always yearns for a simpler time where we lacked responsibility, and could simply explore and learn, but what if the secret is this is something we've been looking for that we've never lost?

Expanding on examples of prodigal explorers, artists, leaders, and many others from centuries past, we can come to the understanding that technology may have changed, but we simply haven't. Although we are one of one, there are an incredible amount of commonalities in what makes us human, and curiosity is simply the olive branch to success in all forms.

Leading How You Would Like To Be Led

We all are narcissists (some more than others). We love to talk about ourselves, and be in the spotlight. Through this, as we embrace our own success, it is often our own success that is the very slow burn leading to our demise. We forget the principles that allowed us to flourish, and take credit while giving blame.

I've found that those with who believe they should lead, are typically the worst leaders. A true leader is one who is called upon. Those who are qualified are not called. Those who are called upon become qualified.

We will break down, in incredible depth what it first means to be conscious, what it means to lead, and what it means when both work in harmony. Leaders may come across as a dime a dozen in the world of "influencers", but Conscious Leaders are those that shape the world from a place of necessity. Painting the world as though it were a canvas, and allowing those helping them to add their own colors in without hesitation.
