Abstract

dc:description.abstract

It is impossible to determine whether success is the product of a supernatural event, karma, fate, or magic, but it is feasible to examine the thinking of successful businesspeople to learn whether their cosmological beliefs have an influence on their outcomes and how. Spirituality is seen to be a catalyst and motivator for a positive mentality amid a crisis, and this mindset is claimed to make or break businesses.1A significant crisis that will forever be discussed as a devastating part of history is the COVID19 pandemic that led to an economic disruption.2 However, while COVID19 decreased consumer consumption and production for many companies, it was a time where faith, spirituality and mindset determined how entrepreneurs redirected their daily practise,3 as business’s were forced to adapt their ways of working towards a New Age led online world.4 This dissertation seeks to ascertain the cosmological beliefs of successful entrepreneurs' and how external influences impact their behavior adding to the expanding body of research in this field by emphasising the role of cosmological beliefs in business success, mindset, and well-being.
