Daily Routines And Habits Of Highly Productive Entrepreneurs

Daily Routines and Habits of Highly Productive Entrepreneurs and Creators We all have 24 hours in our day and we do our best to make the most out of them. However, most of us fall short of achieving what we really wanted from our day. As the secret of success lies in the habits and routines of a person, it can really help us to know the daily routines and habits of highly productive entrepreneurs and creators. Here, be informed that after going through this article, you will realise that there is little similarity between these routines. While one person starts his day as early as 4 am, the other waits till 11 am. Some plan it down to minutes, others keep their schedule loose. However, there would be some commonalities as well, such as Reading for pleasure and inspiration Getting a good amount of sleep Doing some sort of exercise And fetching a cup of tea or coffee to get into the pace. Read on to take a glimpse of most productive routines and habits. 01. Inspirational Speaker Tony Robbins and Best-selling Author: I dive into the chilly water to start each day! I maintain a cold plunge at 56 degrees in each of my residences. I have a river in Sun Valley in which I jump into even in winter. I do this every day as a discipline to train my mind to act now, no matter how challenging it may seem. It also benefits the body physically in amazing ways. Your entire body pumps wildly whenever you undergo such a drastic temperature change, including every cell, nerve, and muscle. Your lymph is moved, and you become more prepared. It is incredibly energising. 02. Box Co-Founder and CEO Aaron Levie I usually read my email in bed for around 30 minutes after waking up. It's a horrible habit, I know, but it enables me to address the majority of pressing concerns straight away (P.S. My iPhone 6+ is really helpful). Then I have two cups of coffee and proceed to work (sometimes I have to take an Uber to finish extra work in the vehicle). Following that, I often have meetings with different teams for 7-8 hours. I then attempt to take a 20-minute sleep, eat supper, and then return to work for another 4-5 hours. I also maintain a list of roughly 50–60 ongoing subjects, problems, difficulties, and obligations for the company that I need to address. They range from "plan out next year's product roadmap" to "contact X customer." 03. Founder and CTO of HubSpot, Dharmesh Shah The majority of the time, I go to bed between 1:30 and 2 a.m. Unless I'm in the middle of some intense coding, in which case I occasionally push it till 3am. I seldom wake up to an alarm. My body wakes me up when it wants to. I typically sleep for 7 to 7.25 hours per night. I function below average if I sleep about 6.5 hours. If I've been asleep for about six hours, I become non-functional. Due to my sleep pattern, I rarely arrange early meetings unless they are really necessary. I typically don't jump out of bed when I wake up. Not because I'm sleepy, but rather because I enjoy lying down and *thinking*. It's one of the rare times of the day when I have nothing else to do. The second benefit of doing this is that as I get out of bed, I can simply and swiftly write down my thoughts (because they were just in my head). 04. Author of The Confidence Game, Maria Konnikova My ideal productive day looks something like this: yoga in the morning, computer around 8 or 8:30am, write until midday, hour break (always away from the screen, to help clear my thoughts and keep the inspiration flowing), then write until 5 or 6pm, and then...happy me time! I usually make sure to read things that inspire me in addition to yoga (with a side of meditation), which helps me get going. I try to read a few poems every day out of a book of poetry that I keep next to my bed. I make an effort to avoid working in the afternoon and instead take a stroll or have a conversation with someone, limiting social media, as well as it is an incredible time-waster and the best way to give up on productivity. 05. Amber Rae- Author and Graphic Artist Amber Rae, a writer and artist, describes how she manages her daily calendar with a "work, play, fit, push" regimen in this piece from Fast Company. She lists her "Top 3," or the three tasks she must do by the end of the day, for each day. She discovered that engaging in recreational activities, such as creating art or spending time in nature, allow her to think and give her ideas a place to flourish. She discovered that movement keeps thoughts fresh, therefore she moves her body for 30 minutes every day. She also accomplishes something difficult every day because she values learning. Amber also decides to organise her days according to themes to stay focused. Monday, Wednesday, and Friday are the days she saves for work; Tuesdays and Thursdays are set aside for calls and meetings; Saturdays are set out for spontaneity; and Sundays are set aside for planning. Jack Dorsey-co founder and CEO of Twitter and Square I often rise at five in the morning. I usually meditate and go for a run just after waking up. I either take an icy bath or relax in my barrel sauna to complete my morning regimen. I typically take a long walk to work around 7:30 a.m. I choose to walk for an hour and a half to the office rather than take the commute so that I may either listen to a podcast or just ponder. Dorsey may start concentrating fully on his task around 9 a.m. He often eats his single meal of the day, supper, about 6:30 p.m. Dorsey organises his days around a theme while still in charge of two separate businesses to keep his otherwise hectic schedule under control.
