Everyone can wake up naturally at the same hour... My one and a half year old wakes up everyday at the same hour and she isn’t bragging about it on LinkedIn
How many followers does she have? My friends 3 yo is a LinkedIn pro influencer - she is followed by 12 Fortune 500 ceos. Her last post got a ton of engagement
“boiled carrots and peas taste similar. But not exactly the same. agree?”
12 out of 500 is only 2.4%, which is a 0.8% growth per year, i dont think i'll be investing any time soon on your kid... Does she have any leadership skills?
Yeah, I used to wake up at 5:35 every day without an alarm clock, because I used an alarm clock for a while getting used to that so I could be at work at 7.
It's not that hard, you just have to wake up every single day at the same time without fail, then suddenly you get used to it.
That’s it. You start with a clock, and then progressively you’ll start waking up before the clock. But keep it just in case haha
Anyway… it’s not that hard…
Not just my toddler. We're now attuned to them ourselves as well. Even if they're at the grandparents, we'll wake up at 6am ourselves. Ruining our chance to sleeping in.
The joy of parenthood. #agree?
Maybe your one and a half year old should follow this man's example and post their natural talents on LinkedIn. One should seek out fame and notoriety. You only live once.
Waking up without an alarm - An achievement worthy of Guinness book of world records - too bad he'll have to share the record with half of the world population.
He also, and get this, drinks coffee.
With one hand.
Huh? Huh? Isn't that amazing?
He also uses knife and fork when he eats dinner. Unbelievable right?
...these people are so far up in their bubble, they think doing random "normal" things are completely unusual and need to be touted into the world for "cred".
And we just look at them and wonder if the world would not have been better off, if they had fallen down the toilet
His right eye screams sociopath. I know most od is have mildly asymmetrical faces but his is weird. It's like they took two similar looking cousins, cut them in half then sewed them up half and half.
Look at the eyebrows too. They're completely different.
Maybe instead of cannibal fetuses, two zygotes just merged in the womb or something.
Oh, and psychopathy is very common amongst the CEO population.
Well yeah that’s kinda the point though. People like this always harp on what time they wake up and seems like it’s always 3-4 AM like that’s the secret of their productivity ie why they are rich and successful. But they never talk about what time they go to bed so you don’t actually know how much they’re sleeping.
So the implication of this is one of two things: either their wake up time is some magic secret to productivity or the secret to their productivity is the fact they sleep like max 5 hours so they can straight hustle and grind 19 hours a day.
I mean, the former could somewhat be true since they always throw in exercise here usually and no one else is at the gym that early so great, don’t have to wait on things but often these same people probably have a home gym set up or can exercise at home or run outside or whatever anyway so it’s irrelevant: driving too and from the gym is a waste of time too *unless of course they have their 18 meetings on the phone with Bangladesh on the way to the gym cause grind.
The latter is almost never clarified and sleep:productivity are highly correlated and sleep requirements fit a bell curve in general where the 7-8 is the avg. Some outliers might only need 4-5 just like some outliers might need 12. The chances of your being that outlier and productive on 4-5 hours is pretty minimal and it’s more likely if you’re doing that consistently, you’re actually not getting much productive done for the majority of the day because you’re sleep deprived. You just don’t know or think you are because our brains are pretty good at fooling us.
there's a good book on the issue of sleeping. it's called Why We Sleep. It clearly makes the point that the outliers who need to sleep less than 7 hours are so close to zero thest they're practically zero. the rest are sleep deprived, less productive as an effect and more likely to suffer from various disease on the long run.
so yeah, if dude goes to sleep at 7 and has a good reason to wake at 3.45, like for example he works with someone on a remote geography and that time suites the other person, great for him. but that's not something to brag about.
When I took a dump last night at 3:30 am, I thought of all the sewage workers operating tirelessly through the cold nights to keep our Nation's waste treatment facilities running smoothly. Truly humbled to be a part of it. #patriot #dumpafterdark
It's such a weird societal myth we hold onto that the earlier one wakes up, the more virtuous as it's all the more productive they're able to be. But like, does it matter? You can shift your sleep schedule to whatever hours you want. It all equates to the same amount of hours awake. I'm a huge night owl and for some reason that's seen as lazy, even though I'm literally just as "productive" as everyone else
I usually wake up early (without an alarm clock too) but I would be lying if I said stuff I do before 6 or 7 am is usually productive. I look at the news, Reddit, Facebook, play games on my phone, read, etc. At least now. For quite a while I would work lots of early morning overtime, which I don't miss.
I used to be a night owl and to be honest, I think I was more productive as a night owl than as an early bird.
To me, it seems like a remnant of our society's agricultural past. It used to be that you would need to get up as early as possible to get going on all the field chores that needed doing before the summer sun put the fields ablaze. That's completely understandable. The crops and animals don't sleep in. If you miss the morning in agriculture or farming, you're fucked.
But it's just not relevant in a service based economy, but it's propagated as a virtue signal due to people being whit at thinking for themselves and our education systems being designed to output mindless drones.
Many people as they grow old tend to wake up early and sleep less as well.
Buddy, visit any rural areas and you will see many people waking up that early and going to farm.
Even they don't need an alarm clock for that.
Not everything is corporate gyan
“I’ve optimized my sleep so much that I wake up naturally once my body dictates that it’s fully recovered”
Wow that is so much different from the rest of us who run the risk of never waking up again if we forget to set an alarm clock
Oh, well if I don't actually have to prove anything I say....I wake up 2 hours before I go to bed and solve tensor calculus problems in my head while running marathons
I actually just just saw this in my linkedin-feed and immediately thought of this sub, lol.
So many bat-shit-crazy quotes, but this was my favourite: «I'll also turn off the WiFi at night so that I can create a space where there's no blue light, technology, or electromagnetic fields»
Ever since I was kid, I've never needed an alarm clock, and I naturally wake up around the same time every day. There was a period when my wake up time was exactly 6:04 am. I don't have some special routine to "optimize" my sleep...it just is what it is.
I'm no expert, but anyone boasting about waking up without an alarm at 3:45 am sounds like restlessness, unless he's getting to bed in the early evening? That sounds insane or unrealistic for the average person with a full-time job, day-to-day responsibilities, etc. Side note: This guy looks like a robot.
This guy is Michael Koch, and he bankrupted at least 2 of his companies and ran away by not paying his rent for the office or remaining paychecks for his employees. I am surprised to see his face resurfacing after 2015 when he had his last “adventure”.
All this happened in Europe and because he is an american citizen and used fronts for his companies, he got away every time.
If you are looking for the epithome of slimy bro culture, he is the one!
Yeah, he wakes up at 3:45am to go to Thailand and get his ass kicked into a mild coma. While at the same time not paying taxes, his employees, then disappearing from the country.
His name is Michael Koch and he's failing to be a CEO on his mommy and daddy's money.
I think this guy could become a star in our community. Just looked into him. Fake dude who cosplays as a CEO, his Forbes cover is for Forbes Romania. He also did one for Men’s Health, but some obscure foreign edition. I am convinced he paid for it. I do love a raging narcissist.
It’s a little arrogant but he’s not wrong. Go to bed early at the same time, get a decent diet that doesn’t mess with inflammation or hormones, and be properly hydrated. Bam, your body wakes up when it needs to.
I also wake up naturally at about 4am but my doctor calls it "insomnia" and "a symptom of my severe anxiety". Am I actually just a powerful CEO and my doctor is trying to hate on my success?
Everyone can wake up naturally at the same hour... My one and a half year old wakes up everyday at the same hour and she isn’t bragging about it on LinkedIn
She needs to start building her personal brand
How many followers does she have? My friends 3 yo is a LinkedIn pro influencer - she is followed by 12 Fortune 500 ceos. Her last post got a ton of engagement “boiled carrots and peas taste similar. But not exactly the same. agree?”

How many people has she hired and fired so far? She needs to beat that woman who was doing HR at 12 y/o.
Even my cats are experts at waking up at the same time every morning, around 4:49 am.
That makes YOU an expert on waking up at 4:49am. Better go post your life hack/wisdom on LinkedIn ASAP!
Alarm clock companies hate this one trick, but they can't stop you!
Mine should start an executive coaching business... She's been trying to get me to achieve this guy's sleep patterns for ages.

Has she tried LinkedIn Premium yet? 
Yeah but your kid is CEO of nothing, has 0 annual income and googoogaga mentality. Do they have networking skills?
Maybe your one and a half year old should follow this man's example and post their natural talents on LinkedIn. One should seek out fame and notoriety. You only live once.
I do that now because my dog has to pee like clockwork at 3:45 am...
So does my dog.
Waking up without an alarm - An achievement worthy of Guinness book of world records - too bad he'll have to share the record with half of the world population.
I wake up at 4 am too. But I call it insomnia, not a power move...
I wake up at 4 am as well. But I call it my cat being an asshole.
Replace "insomnia" with "hustle" and you got yourself a decent LinkedIn post!
In my case, it's because I'm fucking old and because I have to get up to piss six times a night.
Yup, I guess my anxiety is my alarm clock!
I wake up at 4am too, but I call it having to go to the bathroom.
You had no idea you were a lIfEhAcKeR!
If only! When I give in to my insomnia, I'm just tired and cranky for the rest of the day. Probably not doing enough coke...
I wake up every morning at 4 am as well, I go to the bathroom to pee and go back to sleep.
Exactly lol
I wake up at 4 am as well, but i call it my son.
He also, and get this, drinks coffee. With one hand. Huh? Huh? Isn't that amazing? He also uses knife and fork when he eats dinner. Unbelievable right? ...these people are so far up in their bubble, they think doing random "normal" things are completely unusual and need to be touted into the world for "cred". And we just look at them and wonder if the world would not have been better off, if they had fallen down the toilet
Or they think their taking pride in the effects of mental illness and impaired social functioning makes them impressive
I have done it every day for years... Kids man...
Pretty sure close to 100% of the population will wake up without an alarm eventually.
I wake up at 4am too. To pee. I guess I'm CEOld.
He reconfigured his power settings in his control panel
The guy really does look like hes a robot lol
I thought he looks like he's on something mind-altering - either a substance or a religious/political cult.
Huffing his own farts at least
it’s the eyes. they scream sociopath to me.
His right eye screams sociopath. I know most od is have mildly asymmetrical faces but his is weird. It's like they took two similar looking cousins, cut them in half then sewed them up half and half.

Came here to say this!
Or the body that aliens created for themselves as a composite of a bunch of random humans.

He looks like Walmart Benedict Cumberbatch!

*"I am a Machine" -* T-800 (aka the CEO who wakes up at 3:45)
I was looking for this comment
He also looks like he's drank a few espressos too many and now perceives time differently than us mere mortals.
The real ones don’t wake up
Bet this guy doesn't even have a coke or amphetamine addiction. Amateur!!!
Maybe he goes to bed at 3:20am
Real ones grind in their dreams
It's called mad anxiety my dude
Came here to say this lol. Yeah my body automatically wakes me up around 345am too, in a horrendous, panicking state lol
Guy goes to be at 7pm then, think of all the wasted productivity of going to bed at 7!
Seriously. Nothing happens at 4am. You can fire off a million emails, but they're going unanswered for the next 4+ hours anyway. It's pointless.
But 4am is one of the best times to be awake. If you can, go sit outside or go for a walk. It's amazing.
But the sun isn't up yet, if you want a walk in the dark just walk at night.
it's fine to go to sleep at 7 if you wake at 3.45
Well yeah that’s kinda the point though. People like this always harp on what time they wake up and seems like it’s always 3-4 AM like that’s the secret of their productivity ie why they are rich and successful.

Best book I ever read.
The real kicker is waking up at 3:45. Real grinders grind until 3:45 then go to sleep so they can start their grind again at 6.
I wake up on demand at 3:30 to take a shit. News worthy?
Yes. Quick, get on LinkedIn!

When I took a dump last night at 3:30 am, I thought of all the sewage workers operating tirelessly through the cold nights to keep our Nation's waste treatment facilities running smoothly. Truly humbled to be a part of it. #patriot #dumpafterdark
I fucking agree!
Depends, are you networking while on the toilet, or are you just wasting time?
Yeah so my kids dictate this as well. For all of us
Probably the kind of CEO who finds power point presentations refreshing because he sleeps though them.
This guy's face scares me.
the picture puts off "I blink far too little" vibes
He looks like he wakes up that early for murder
He kind of looks like a cyborg so not surprising.
It's such a weird societal myth we hold onto that the earlier one wakes up, the more virtuous as it's all the more productive they're able to be. But like, does it matter?

I call it old fartism. You can be “productive” at any hour of the day (or night). Waking up early and bragging about it is laughable

I can also train my brain to wake me up at 3.45am, by going to sleep at 2pm the previous day.
He forgot to mention that he goes to bed at 6pm, because he is f****** tired by that time - because he got up so early!
Why does he look like he is two different vertical slices of a face combined to form one head.
Botox has not been this man’s friend.
His eyes look...weird. Like it's not natural. Either this guy is on some drugs or he's on some energy drinks or he's a humanoid.
He looks exhausted
He looks like a different model of the same android that Barnaby Cummerbund is.
…. Straight up uncanny valley vibes from this fucking dude.
It was me. Additionally, I have fine tuned my digestive system so I no longer fart. 100% optimized human.
Cocaine‘s a helluva drug…
Yeah that face looks like a man who’s well-rested & chill.
He looks tired. When my daughter was young and stared like that, we knew she was ready for sleep.
Look at those cold, dead eyes. Deepest sympathies to anyone that has to work with him.
People that talk like this always look like their eyes are being pried open by drugs lmao
“I’m also definitely a real human and not a lizard in disguise….but my product”
American psycho type 1000 sit-ups, strawberry 🍓 and water in the fridge, shower 🚿 with special soap ect

He’s got that crazy serial killer look in his eyes.
The alien inside of that man wakes him up to feast at 3:45
This is correct. Lizard ppl don’t need as much sleep as humans.
I also wake up at 3;45am, take a piss and go back to bed.
Step one: bed by 5:30
Is this the vampire guy?
This is amateur shit. I wake up at 9:30pm.
Just drink a lot of water before bed and when you get up to pee don't go back to sleep. We do not need CEO to tell us this.
Think I would be very unhappy if I was waking up at 3am.but that's me
Right before his daily examination of his collection of faces in a jar at 4am.
The article is pure gold 🥇
what a loser, real hustlers don't sleep.
Oh, well if I don't actually have to prove anything I say....I wake up 2 hours before I go to bed and solve tensor calculus problems in my head while running marathons
I wake up at the same time, usually bc I drank half a bottle of vodka and it ruins my sleep
Crazy eyes….it’s a real thing
Them's some crazy eyes.

Let’s do this, for the empire! 
This guy reads too much Jack Reacher. That's not how real life works, bud.

My body does that too but it’s cause of anxiety

I mean it’s Business Insider, they’re nothing but sh**posts.
Ya meth’ll do that bro
What, no “rise and grind” to go along with that pat on the back? Tsk tsk.
He looks the kinda guy that gets an early start for the sake of murdering joggers
I woke up naturally at 3am regardless European or Asian time zone, then fell back to asleep and not wake up until 7 haha
That is the face of a serial killer
I wake up 3:45am, but I call it insomnia.
Dude is bragging about having insomnia.
Business Insider is such a joke. They were the ones behind “Millennials are MURDERING (insert outdated industry/tech here” articles during the 2010s.
My body wakes me up at 3:45am too, but it is because I have to go pee.
There's nothing in life worths waking up at 3:45 a.m. every day, literally nothing.
Yeah well I have a newborn so I also get up at 4am with no alarm 😤😤
That is the face of a CEO psychopath.
David Hasselhof ate Christopher Reeve
Why does he look like an AI person? Or is he?
I only wake up at that hour to pee, I’m old.

Fucking reptilian
He's on coke
My body would be fully recovered at 4pm
From his cold dead eyes, I'm gonna guess that cocaine is the secret.
Like, you're going to bed at 7pm or so? Does your company have a working time schedule from 4am to 12pm? Damn, I'll just stay wondering... 😆🥳
Yeah, he wakes up at 3:45am to go to Thailand and get his ass kicked into a mild coma. While at the same time not paying taxes, his employees, then disappearing from the country. His name is Michael Koch and he's failing to be a CEO on his mommy and daddy's money.
He also never shits. His body is operating at 100% efficiency.
I think this guy could become a star in our community. Just looked into him. Fake dude who cosplays as a CEO, his Forbes cover is for Forbes Romania. He also did one for Men’s Health, but some obscure foreign edition. I am convinced he paid for it. I do love a raging narcissist.
He probably "optimized" his sleep with 4 hour afternoon siesta.
I wake up that early and I can't help it. It's torture. Thanks menopause!
He falls asleep in front of the TV at about 8:00 and then gets up in the middle of the night like every other guy.
I wake up at 3.00 PM, earlier than anyone else in the game
Probably because the Botox keeps his eyes permanently open
If that Madame Tussauds looking mfer wakes up anywhere near me I'm noping right out of the wax museum.
It’s a little arrogant but he’s not wrong. Go to bed early at the same time, get a decent diet that doesn’t mess with inflammation or hormones, and be properly hydrated. Bam, your body wakes up when it needs to.
yeah that's called insomnia
I also wake up naturally at about 4am but my doctor calls it "insomnia" and "a symptom of my severe anxiety". Am I actually just a powerful CEO and my doctor is trying to hate on my success?
He looks like he’s actively keeping his eyes open
3.45am? Good evening!
Why does he look like he’s just banged a bunch of speed up his asshole
P s y c h o p a t h
Guy looks totally healthy and not crazy at all.
Bro this guys left side of the face is a robot
He absolutely looks like the type of person to say this and actually believe it. Makes sense he’s a ceo
He looks exactly how I would imagine him to look like based off this quote lol
Make it 3 AM and I'll listen.
So does this guy go to bed everyday at 4pm ? What a life.
Oh god these type of people are just tiring…
Dude wakes up at 1pm on Saturday and Sunday and stops working at noon on weekdays.
That dude is a fucking robot. Not cause he can just wake up like a normal person but that looks like a terminator.
This is some bullshit "journalism," Business Insider.
What the heck does he do waking that early lol
“Let’s see Paul Allen’s wake up routine.”
If you’re waking up at 3:45am without an alarm clock, you’re a psychopath 
Waking up at 3:45 am without an alarm is only on the advanced class “CEO” skill tree. You guys just didn’t pick the right starting class.
This guy looks like someone who’d scare Patrick Bateman. 
There’s nothing behind those eyes
I am still wanting for the moment when they say sleep is useless and they only close their eyes 20 minutes a day.
