PERFORMANCE CONSULTANT & LECTURER

Michael Maric

Performance Consultant, Educator & Developer of the Survival to Thrival Formula. From almost-pro athlete to pioneer of the Survival-to-Thrival transformation that’s revolutionizing sports performance.

The Athlete Who Almost Made It

Every breakthrough begins with a breakdown. Mine started when I realized talent and hard work weren’t enough.

 

I was that athlete who did everything right. I trained harder than anyone, ate the right foods, followed every protocol. I was so close to making it to the professional level that I could taste it. The dream felt within reach.

But when it came time to perform—when the pressure was on and everything mattered—something held me back. My habitual beliefs, my perceptions, and especially my excessive analytical mind would take over. I’d think instead of react, hesitate instead of flow, survive instead of thrive.

The devastating realization hit me: I was failing not because of my body, but because of my brain.

“I had trained my body to perfection, but my mind was still operating in survival mode when I needed championship-level consciousness.”

 

That crushing disappointment of falling short—despite doing all the “right” things—left me with a burning question: What was the missing piece? What separates those who make it from those who don’t?

I refused to accept that some people are just “mentally tougher.” There had to be a science to it. A system. A formula.

The Discovery That Changed Everything

My quest to understand what held me back led me deep into neuroscience, neuroplasticity, and the hidden mechanics of peak performance. I studied hypnotherapy, explored consciousness research, and investigated the quantum mechanics of possibility.

After years of research and experimentation, I uncovered the truth: Elite performance isn’t about willpower—it’s about rewiring your brain from survival-mode reactions to thrival-state consciousness.

This wasn’t just theory—it was the exact solution I needed as an athlete. The formula I wish I’d had when I was chasing my professional dreams.
