Jeff Bezos, the founder of Amazon, has offered a glimpse into the daily routine of a billionaire. In an old video that’s currently going viral, Bezos shares during an interview that he completes his most important tasks by 10 am.
In the video, Bezos explains that he begins his day with small tasks that he enjoys. “I sleep early, I wake up early, I do small, less hectic tasks in the morning. I like to read newspapers, drink coffee, and have breakfast with my children before they go to school. This time is very important for me,” he says.
Bezos further notes, “That’s why I schedule my first meeting of the day at 10 am. I finish my high IQ meetings before lunch. Any work that requires a lot of brainpower, I like to do it by 10 am. If any work comes in at 5 pm, I think it can wait until the next morning.”
He also emphasises the importance of sleep, stating that he prioritises getting eight hours of rest.
“Sometimes it becomes impossible to do this while travelling in different time zones, but apart from that I need 8 hours of sleep. This gives me more energy and I am able to think better,” Bezos shared.
Recently, Jeff Bezos married his girlfriend Lauren Sanchez in Italy. According to Forbes’ Real Time Billionaire List, Bezos is the fourth richest person in the world, with a net worth of around $237 billion. He is the founder of Amazon, the online shopping platform, as well as Blue Origin, a company aimed at making space travel more accessible and affordable. Additionally, he founded Amazon Web Services, which provides IT services globally.
