For Lash Inc we were interested in increasing our reach on Social Media and found out about David while searching for ways to increase our following on Instagram beyond 50K.
He has mastered so many things in his personal and professional career and wants to share what he has Mastered with the world.
His tips certainly helped us top our 50K. His bite sized video makes everything easy to follow and implement.
Did you ever wonder why we have 2 circles when we post to our stories on Instagram? Well that is due to one of David’s tips. Having 2 circles makes you stand out from other stories and many people will spot it and click on your story before anyone else. Shhhhh, don’t tell anyone.
Getting to know David: We know you are satisfied with your success so far. But are you also happy in general? I have always been happy in life, even without any so called success. I think the real key to be happy is self confidence. When you truly listen to your own voice, you don’t listen anyone’s judgement, and above all, you understand that happiness comes from the inside and not from external events. How sad would it be, if your happiness would depend on external factors ? If you don’t have much confidence in yourself, and if you value too much other people’s opinions, remember that in reality everyone thinks about themself in priority. They don’t really care about you. So why not deciding to live the life you truly want and deserve.
So, if you are into getting the perfect body, David is your guy. Into Mindfulness and Meditation? check him out. Or just want to admire his modelling photos then that is allowed also, there are many on his Instagram @davidmichigan

What is the first thing you think about in the morning when you wake up? Is there a morning routine? The first thing I do when I wake up is thinking about my long term vision, it gives me a lot of energy to wake up early and to take action. Here is my morning routine: I do a 5 min self-hypnosis session, then I write my goals for the day, the things I really want to be done. And then I drink some coffee, without eating anything. As I usually train during the morning, I love to do the intermittent fasting, and to eat only after sport, as a recompense. You travel half the world. What does travelling and foreign cultures mean to you and what is your favourite place?
For us and maybe for you Instagram Marketing is what we wanted to learn from David. David’s first Instagram course is currently $29, which is a fraction of what we paid for it, so an absolute bargain!
My goal when I am traveling is to give very strong emotions to people. I want you to travel with me, even if you are staying home. In order to do that, we make amazing cinematographic videos with my friend Jim Winter (movie maker), and with the landscapes, music… we want to give you the most amazing experience ever. I really encourage you to watch these videos on my Instagram or YouTube account, because they are really astonishing, especially the short movie (15min) we made for the Embassy of Argentina, with which we won the first place at the drone festival. My 2 favourite places are Argentina and Fakarava (French Polynesia) because you have there very nice people with an unreal biodiversity. It is so crazy, and I encourage everyone to go in these 2 places of the world.
