"According to Thomas C. Corley's research, 76% of millionaires exercised for at least 30 minutes a day, four days a week. Yeah, exercise. Not exactly the secret formula you were expecting, right? Why movement matters more than you think I used to think successful people were too busy for the gym. Turns out, I had it backwards. They're successful partly because they make time for it."
"Socio-economist Randall Bell, Ph.D., who's been studying success for 25 years, puts it bluntly: "Those who exercised, even for 15 minutes a day, dominated statistically in every single measure of success." Every single measure. Let that sink in. When I sold my first company at twenty-seven, I was exhausted. Running a startup had meant sacrificing everything, including my health. But once I had some breathing room, I started noticing patterns among the entrepreneurs and executives I admired. They weren't just hitting revenue targets."
Regular exercise correlates strongly with wealth and professional success: 76% of millionaires exercise at least 30 minutes daily, four days a week. Short bouts of movement also show outsized benefits; even 15 minutes daily correlated with superior outcomes across success measures. Entrepreneurs and executives frequently prioritize physical activity alongside business goals, and personal experience of early burnout preceded a shift toward observing fitness patterns among high achievers. Neuroscientific evidence highlights exercise as highly transformative for the brain. Physiological effects include endorphin release, improved mood and pain reduction, plus increased energy and enhanced brain health and cognitive function.
