A video of Jeff Bezos discussing his morning routine and the importance of adequate sleep has garnered significant attention on social media, amassing over 3.8 million views and more than 15,000 likes within a day of being shared. The video, posted by Historic Vids on the microblogging platform X (formerly Twitter), showcases the Amazon founder’s approach to balancing his demanding roles while prioritizing rest and quality time.
In the video, Bezos, who is the executive chairman of Amazon, owner of Blue Origin, and a billionaire investor, emphasizes the significance of starting his day with what he calls “puttering” time. “I go to bed early, I wake up early, I like to putter in the morning. I like to read the newspaper, I like to have coffee, I like to have breakfast with my kids before they go to school. My puttering time is very important to me. That’s why I set my first meeting for 10 am,” Bezos explained.
The second richest man in the world also shared his strategy for tackling mentally challenging tasks, scheduling high IQ meetings before lunch. “Like anything that’s really mentally challenging, that’s a 10 am meeting. And because by 5 pm, like, I can’t think about that today. Let’s try this again at 10 tomorrow,” he said.
Bezos further stressed the importance of getting eight hours of sleep, stating, “I think better. I have more energy. My mood is better.” This emphasis on rest underscores his belief that proper sleep contributes significantly to productivity and overall well-being.
The video resonated with many viewers, sparking discussions about the value of a structured morning routine. One user commented, “That ‘puttering’ time is so important. Waking up early allows you to ease into the day instead of rushing out the door. It gives you an opportunity to get your mind/body/spirit ready to tackle the day. I love to be up early and just sit and ponder my day/life.” Another user simply wrote, “Legend,” while a third remarked, “Morning appears to be where the best thinking happens.”
However, some users highlighted that high-quality productivity comes from finding a personal routine that works best for the individual rather than copying a billionaire’s habits. “Just get up, grab some coffee, and start your day. High-quality productivity doesn’t come from copying a billionaire’s routine but finding what works best for you,” one person noted.
As the video continues to circulate, it serves as a reminder of the importance of balancing work with rest and personal time, offering insights into the daily habits of one of the world’s most successful entrepreneurs.
