Ari Williams

Tell us a little about you(your background and how was it like)?

Australian raised in the Sunshine Coast or more specifically Caloundra. A coastal town with some opportunity but not for someone like myself. I always needed to pursue bigger and better things, therefore my mother moved to Brisbane with me shortly after I turned 18. After arriving I met a few friends and created a social circle for myself and soon got into club promoting and eventually continued to promote clubs, but closer to home in a town called Mooloolaba. In August 2015 I made a big move to the West Coast and lived in Perth which I found a new nightclub to promote and pursed a career in sales. Starting the career by doing a full year in door-to-door sales is most likely the greatest thing I’ve ever done for myself in regard to learning communication skills, goal setting and maintaining consistency. Using the experience of face to face sales as leverage, I managed to get a job selling health insurance with a $65,000 base salary. After a breakup, I decided to pursue various hobbies, modelling being one of them. This was what I decided to pursue as a career simple put because I reverse engineered my largest goals to what small steps I can take now and modelling was the best start I could take as I was told by many I could but never found the confidence. In October 2018 I quit my job and decided to backpack Southeast Asia before I took a one way plane ticket to Melbourne and built my current brand after lots of challenges with finances and living. With the help of the people closest to me I managed to settle in and am now further than I expected to be at this point.

What are the bad things you see on social media?

Social media is simply a tool. You can be used to control your future, or let people use it to control yours. It’s easy to slip and let your insecurities control your lifestyle because of other people’s opinions.

What are the hardships you go through?

I don’t believe in hardships, for as they are simply challenges. This all depends on your perspective. I used to experience hardships, but overcame these by simply understanding the bigger picture in life and always having a plan. These can include, money problems, alcohol abuse, emotional trauma and depression to name a few. To which, I believe I have beaten all of these problems.

What are your goals in life?

Goals I am currently working towards in the long term are to play James Bond, The Joker, own a successful suit business, and moreover have $100,000,000 in net worth.

What would you do if you could change the world?

I would give people the courage to find their passion, I meet many people every day who have lost confidence in their dreams and have simply let themselves slip to become what they wished they weren’t simply because it was the easier option.

Are you happy in the position you are now in life?

One hundred percent.
