The quirky, fast-rising global movement known as “FELS” ,the movement advocates for ten main lifestyle pillars which have been carefully researched from the livesof top business leaders from around the world
Entrepreneurs change the world and create the future. They focus their energies on solving problems,
improving things around them and making a positive impact on peoples’ lives everywhere.
To do this,
most true entrepreneurs embody several characteristics which help them align their lives around this
pursuit – to be in the best possible position to achieve their goals successfully.
We often hear from business and entrepreneurship experts who preach the common factors of success
- things like resilience, persistence, drive, and more recent buzzwords such as “grit” and “hustle”. These
of course are useful personal attributes to have, in addition to general business acumen and technical
knowledge of a specific field of work.
But such elusive traits are not easy to come by or easy to train for.
They must arise from each person’s
inner strength and character, shaped by a multitude of experiences and conditioning. That’s where the
lifestyle comes in.
FELS, or The Flourishing Entrepreneurial Lifestyle is an online content movement that has set out to
identify the lifestyle formula most correlated with these positive outcomes and to help raise awareness
for it.
As an internet “tribe” it aims to grow and foster a global community of people who want to be
better primed for high achievement, and to facilitate to exchange of insights and support between them.
The movement advocates for ten main lifestyle pillars which have been carefully researched from the lives
of top business leaders from around the world.
These pillars cover a wide range of common life practices
which come together to deliver a holistic impact.
The hypothesis here is that their cumulative effect can help us become better at complex entrepreneurship pursuits, challenging business undertakings or any career aspirations by making us the best versions ourselves mentally and physically.
