A billion-dollar secret. Amazon founder reveals a simple ritual that led him to success: science has confirmed it
Jeff Bezos, the American entrepreneur, and founder of the online retailer Amazon.com and the aerospace company Blue Origin, whose fortune is worth more than $202 billion, is the third richest person in the world. The billionaire has revealed the secret of his success.
Bezos claims that a clear daily routine helped him earn billions of dollars. Science has confirmed this, writes DailyMail.
Jeff Bezos says that he achieved success thanks to a clear daily routine. According to the billionaire, since 2018, he has been starting his day with a warm-up outside, followed by a walk. At this time, the entrepreneur turns off all screens and is left alone with his thoughts.
When Bezos first laid out his morning "time to work" strategy during a speech at the Economic Club, he described it as an opportunity to recharge for his most important meetings.
"That's why I schedule my first meetings as early as ten o'clock," Bezos explained to the Club.
According to the entrepreneur, sleep is also crucial for success. "I get up early and go to bed early," he emphasized.
Jeff Bezos revealed other details of his daily routine in his book Invent & Wander: The Collected Writings of Jeff Bezos. "I need eight hours of sleep. Then I think better, I have more energy and my mood improves," he emphasized.
These statements of the American billionaire were confirmed by Maris Loeffler, a licensed therapist who specializes in the treatment of anxiety and stress disorders at the Stanford Lifestyle Medicine Program. She said that lack of sleep and being on a gadget at night can worsen mental health.
"If you spend an hour on your phone one morning while still in bed, the negative impact will be minimal. But if it becomes a daily habit, this behavior can cause significant damage to mental health," she explained.
Loeffler cited a neuroscience study that showed that increased screen use among adults can impair learning, memory, and mental health.
Another scientific study found an alarming link between regular TV viewing (five hours or more per day) and an increased risk of developing dementia, Parkinson's disease, and other brain-related illnesses.
Maris Loeffler emphasized that scientific studies show that the amount of gray matter in the brain of adults decreases if they look at their screen for two or more hours a day outside of work.
