Can Your Overall Lifestyle Really Affect Your Success In Work Or Business?

Entrepreneurs make a difference in the world and shape the future. They devote their efforts to resolving problems, improving the world around them, and making a positive difference in people's lives all over the world. To do so, most true entrepreneurs possess a set of traits that enable them to align their lives around this goal – to be in the best possible position to achieve their objectives.

We frequently hear from business and entrepreneurship experts who preach common success factors such as resilience, persistence, and drive, as well as more recent buzzwords like "grit" and "hustle." Of course, in addition to general business acumen and technical knowledge of a specific field of work, these are valuable personal qualities to possess.

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 affirm 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 promotes ten main lifestyle pillars that have been carefully researched from the lives of world-class business leaders. These pillars encompass a wide range of common life practices that work in concert to produce a holistic effect. The hypothesis is that by making us the best versions of ourselves mentally and physically, their cumulative effect can help us become better at complex entrepreneurship pursuits, challenging business undertakings, or any career aspirations.

FELS is on a mission to share these valuable lessons with the rest of the world through simple blog-style content that shows how to live the lifestyle and how to do it well. FELS focuses on developing regions of the world and has created special sets of social media channels for each of them – such as FELS Africa, FELS Latino, FELS Arabia, and so on – in order to make content accessible to those who may need it the most. With a total of 14 major languages covered, these channels are tailored to their local audiences' culture and language.

The movement has also released an eBook featuring interviews with more than 30 influential entrepreneurs and business leaders from around the world, each sharing their personal stories and insights reflecting on how these lifestyle pillars have contributed to their current success and prosperity.

FELS recently created a mobile app to centralize the conversation in one place and make it easier for members to step up as local leaders or ambassadors, as the community has grown rapidly and now has over half a million followers.

So, who's behind it all? You may have guessed correctly that someone who has identified these factors from his own personal journey is a successful serial entrepreneur. Mr. Aiman Kabli, the movement's leader, has lived by these principles: as an innovator, he has worked on over two dozen technology startups, as a digital nomad, he has traveled to over 85 countries, and as an avid learner, he has read over 300 insightful books in the last decade.
