Complaining about these challenges will not help at all. Let's explore viable options and avenues opened to the average individuals to overcome these social-economic pressures.

**🛠️ *The Relentless Fellowship*** **A fraternity for entrepreneurs who never clock out and are always too busy building to waste time.** This is the 3rd session of The Relentless Fellowship. In December 2025, the host will be Nicholas. His profile is as follows: Nicholas Chan is an entrepreneur with over 30 years of practical experience building, operating, and fixing businesses across multiple stages. He has founded and led companies, worked in early stage venture investing, and advised founders on execution, structure, and survival. As the organizer of the Singapore Entrepreneurs Network, he brings together serious operators who value effort, discipline, and results. His work reflects a long term commitment to building real businesses rather than pursuing clout, trend-chasing or shortcuts. After 24 years of running the Singapore Entrepreneurs Network, I’ve met all types of founders. Many wear the title of entrepreneur like cosplay where they are always chasing grants, investments and attention while building up their image instead of focusing on results. Others are corporate or government staff trying to play-act as entrepreneurs on the side while doing their very best to slack off, do nothing and go nowhere. But there are the very rare few who are actually “in the trenches”, the real hardcore entrepreneurs I have had conversations and collaborations with, **always** **working 12 to 16 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year** consistently building with driven focus, a constant sense of urgency and disciplined commitment to their mission. They don’t chase clout. They don’t have time for bullshit small talk. They have zero tolerance for political correctness and lies. They are most certainly not caught up in the never ending chase to create clickbait content in their never ending quest of famewhoring. More than anything, they crave meaningful connection and fostering deep collaboration with other similarly hard charging individuals who understand first-hand the true demands of the entrepreneurial vocation. *"It is hard to find other entrepreneurs who actually “get it”.”* *“ I’m not here to waste time with time wasters. I’m here to build."* *"I want to collaborate with my peers, not waste my time with “tourists” and “wannabes”."* So, this is my answer for them and myself. *** **🔧 Introducing: *The Relentless Fellowship*** This is a **private support group and collaboration circle** for serious, mission-driven workaholic entrepreneurs who obsessively live and breathe their work. Not a speaker panel. Not a pitch night. Not a parade of LinkedIn personalities. No bullshit about work-life balance. No political correctness or woke bullshit. This is about finding and being amongst other similarly driven entrepreneurs. This is a fellowship, not a networking event. A workaholic support group, not a place to wayang. Just real conversations and profitable collaborations formed over dinner with fellow entrepreneurs who: * Show up, not just in business but in how they treat others. * Share knowledge, experience, perspective and opportunities. Not just take take take. * Respect time, commitments and the opportunity to connect with high-calibre fellow entrepreneurs to build lasting collaborations. This is a space for **mutual support**, **shared energy** and **zero woke political correctness**. *** **📅 The Format** * Held on **Tuesday or Thursday evenings**, hosted at a fellow entrepreneur’s office. * **Capped at 8 attendees (including the host)** to protect the quality of conversation and connection. * **Bring your own packed dinner**; drinks provided from the host’s pantry. * Nicholas, the host of the Singapore Entrepreneurs Network will personally host the **first 3 to 6 gatherings**, after which other members may group up and volunteer their office space to continue the series if they so desire. * If there is demand, more Relentless Fellowship chapters will be spun off and run by other committed entrepreneur hosts. *** ### 🔒 Expression of Interest For the month of December 2025, the host will be Nicholas. Please WhatsApp him at **+65 9488 9683** with the following details: 1. Indicate your interest in attending. 2. Provide your **name, company name, and a short intro** (either what your company does or what new venture you’re starting). 3. Confirm if you are open to meeting **over dinner on the 4th Friday of the month**. From there, you’ll be contacted directly once dates and details are set. *** **If you’ve been quietly carrying the weight of your business, building quietly, working relentlessly and ready to meet others walking the same to band up in building together stronger, better and faster, the Relentless Fellowship is for you.** **No speeches. No spectators. No wokeness. Just builders.**

Please come at 7:45am for the networking session. • FARM & COLLABORATE We gather together not to hunt business deals from one another but rather to explore means and opportunities to build our businesses through referrals and collaborations together. We appreciate that you don't push your business to our members and other visitors. • PREPARE A 15-SECOND INTRODUCTION Don't worry, despite sitting through numerous meetings, some of us are still as nervous as you. Just share a little about yourself, what you do, and how you can collaborate with the people present. 15 seconds go by really quickly anyway. • STAY FOR OPEN NETWORKING Don't be in a hurry to rush off after 9.30am. Many of our members and visitors stay for open networking well after the meeting, so do stay on and mingle with us for another 30 minutes to an hour. • MOST IMPORTANTLY, COME WITH AN OPEN MIND What makes BNI unique and efficient is the system and structure in place for business owners like us. Come with an open mind and understand why we are willing to sign up for the chapter and meet every week at 7.45am.

Hey everyone! We organising a co-working + socialising session for all of us who like to work on something (e.g. our own project, freelance or remote work) but feel working alone at home can get a bit lonely :-) To ensure that we have both socialising AND working, we will be using the so called “Pomodoro” technique: **50min of deep work** (silent), followed by **10min of break** to socialise. Then repeat, we typically do up to 3 rounds. It’s an effective way to stay focused - you can read more about it [here](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pomodoro_Technique). Anyone from any background is welcome, whatever project you are working on or whatever is your personal background. ——————————————————- AGENDA: * **15min Intro (please come on time)** Get to know everyone, talk about what you will work on today * **Pomodoro Session** \- 3x \(3h\) Each Pomodoro session consists of 50min of uninterrupted “deep work” (no talking, no interruptions, no phones) -> then 10min of break: share your progress with others, talk about what you are stuck on etc. -> Repeat * **Wrap Up and dinner (optional)** Share your progress, socialise and get to know others 😊 ———— Location is Two Blur Guys (387 Jln Besar, Singapore 209002). We have booked a separate room with a big table screen at the end of the cafe space, just walk all the way through when you walk in, or ask the barista. Wifi + power plugs are there but best to bring a fully charged laptop, just in case 🙃 You DO NOT have to pay anything, but since we are using the café space, it would be common courtesy to buy at least one drink. Please remember to release your RSVP in case you are not able to make it for the people on the waitlist and looking forward to seeing you there! :) Note: RSVP-ing and then no show will result in penalties: 1 No show = warning 2 No shows = de-prioritized for those in waitlist 3 No shows = blocked from future events Cheers Vicente

Step into 2026 with intention, clarity, and a creative practice designed to help you see yourself more clearly. In this special Confidence Lab session, we’ll explore confidence as something you can curate - through the choices you make, the qualities you amplify, and the story you choose to step into. We’ll start with a short guided reflection to surface the traits, habits, and energies you want to nurture in the coming year. Then, using collage materials selected specifically for this workshop, you’ll translate those insights into a visual composition that represents the version of yourself you’re ready to grow toward. This isn’t about resolutions or perfection. It’s about crafting a grounded, imaginative vision of your next chapter - one that feels honest, energizing, and fully yours. All materials are provided. Just bring yourself (and a friend) and a willingness to explore what confidence can look like for you in 2026. **Featured Partner: Columbus Collage Collective** The Columbus Collage Collective was started in August of 2023 by Emily Morgan (aka Lovely But Dead) and Douglas Cuckler (aka Wonder Doug) as a place for collage enthusiasts to gather and create art together. The collective has since become a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization with the mission to hold free or low-cost collage events across central Ohio. The CCC welcomes all artists of all backgrounds and skill levels and encourages folks to take this time to step away from everyday existence and create art with people who share a love for this dynamic art form. All materials—magazines, scissors, craft knives, glue, paper, cardboard, and more—are provided, so there's no need to bring anything at all (though you're welcome to bring a friend or a favorite tool if you'd like!). We also encourage folks to take home magazines and materials from our events to support continued creativity!

Whether you’re launching a business, leading a team, navigating change, or simply striving to show up more fully—you belong here. Our work demands clarity, courage, and conviction—but the pace of daily life can erode our sense of self. Confidence Lab creates space to reflect, reconnect, and grow with others doing purpose-driven work. It’s designed for entrepreneurs, nonprofit leaders, creatives, corporate professionals, activists, and anyone ready to lead with authenticity and impact. ***Please note:*** *All are welcome! If cost is a concern, please use promo code PUBLIC to access a free ticket—we want you to join us.*
