If they constantly hit the snooze button and only kick off the covers after <\/em>noon– well, they wouldn\u2019t be billionaires because they\u2019re missing out on the most productive hours of the day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Time is a resource, just like everything else, and these billionaires make it count. With a schedule that\u2019s no doubt packed to the brim, they– and you!– get up a lot earlier than most people. Twitter\u2019s founder, Jack Dorsey, rises at 5:30 a.m. every morning. British business magnate Alan Sugar beats him by half an hour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n And beating Dorsey by an entire hour, Disney\u2019s CEO, Bob Iger, gets up at 4:30 <\/em>a.m. seven days a week, no matter if he\u2019s on vacation or where ever he is in the world. This is because he believes that \u201cIt\u2019s a time of day when [he] can be very productive without too much interruption.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n And– here\u2019s the doozy — Apple\u2019s infamously strict CEO, Tim Cook, gets up at the darkest hour– 3:45 a.m, every single morning. His routine is followed by doing his email for an hour, hitting the gym, doing more <\/em>emails– this time at Starbucks, and finally going to work at Apple.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You might be wondering what kind of job could motivate you to get up nearly six hours before you need to. Well, Apple\u2019s CEO believes that \u201cThe thing about it is, when you love what you do, you don\u2019t think of it as work. It\u2019s what you do. And that\u2019s the good fortune of where I find myself.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Of course, to get up early and feel refreshed and motivated, you\u2019d have to get some quality rest first. An incredible number of workaholic billionaires swear by getting a solid night\u2019s sleep. This applies to everyone, from Jeff Bezos to Arianna Huffington. They know that they won\u2019t be as productive– or at least be at 100% if their mind is still foggy. Most billionaires aim to get at least six hours of sleep each night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Or, to put it more clearly, they do any form of exercise that gets their blood pumping, keeps their bodies fit, and keeps their minds sharp.<\/p>\n\n\n\n And they do it in the morning. Otherwise, they wouldn\u2019t get a chance to fit in an exercise session during their busy day. Of course, billionaires differ on their favorite forms of working out. Some prefer aerobics. Others lift weights. Still, others take walks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
