起床超早的七位成功人士

They say the early bird catches the worm, and research suggests there might be some truth to the old adage.

都說早起的鳥兒有蟲吃。調查發(fā)現(xiàn)，這句老話還真不是胡侃的。

Waking up with (or before) the sun allows executives like Apple CEO Tim Cook and "Shark Tank" investor Kevin O'Leary to get a head start on the day, knocking out tasks before the rest of the world has rolled out of bed.

迎著日出(或日出前)起床，使得蘋果公司CEO蒂姆•庫克、創(chuàng)智贏家投資人凱文•奧利里等高管們在新的一天搶先一步，在別人還在床上打滾時就開始打怪得分了。

Those "extra" hours with less distractions and fresh energy also give them a chance to do some creative thinking, fit in a workout, and spend time with family. And it should be noted that waking up early doesn't necessarily mean losing sleep — some of the smartest leaders understand that being effective means getting a full night's sleep.

這些“多出來”的時間受干擾較少，帶著新生的活力，高管們可以打破常規(guī)創(chuàng)新思考，健健身，陪陪家人。有一點要說的是，早起并不是剝奪睡眠——最聰明的領導都知道，只有整晚充足的睡眠才能帶來效率的提升。

Here are 7 early risers who may convince you never to hit snooze again.

下面七個早起的人應該會說服你別再睡懶覺了。

According to a Time profile, "He wakes up at 3:45 every morning ('Yes, every morning'), does email for an hour, stealing a march on those lazy East Coasters three time zones ahead of him, then goes to the gym, then Starbucks (for more e-mail), then work. 'The thing about it is, when you love what you do, you don't really think of it as work. It's what you do. And that's the good fortune of where I find myself.'"

根據《時代》周刊的一篇人物介紹，“他每天凌晨3:45起床(“是的，每天”)，處理一小時郵件，把比他早三個時區(qū)的東海岸的懶人都甩在后面。接著去健身房，然后去星巴克，在那里繼續(xù)處理郵件，最后去上班。‘說白了，當你熱愛你做的事情時，你不會認為那是工作。你會覺得這就是你該做的。幸運的是我的情況就是如此。’”

“這個時候沒有太多干擾，我可以做很多事情。我一周騎兩次自行車，用健身器材做兩次有氧運動，跟著教練練習舉重。同時這時候也很適合思考問題。我相信運動會緩解壓力，讓精力更加充沛，對于做我這種工作的人來說是非常必要的。”
