起床超早的七位成功人士

天气一冷，起床就变得越来越困难。殊不知，一日之计在于晨。许多成功人士都是天不亮就起床的闻鸡起舞型，其中包括苹果CEO库克、美国第一夫人米歇尔等等。如果不想做loser，还是精神起来，改掉懒床的毛病吧！

They say the early bird catches the worm, and research suggests there might be some truth to the old adage.
都说早起的鸟儿有虫吃。调查发现，这句老话还真不是胡侃的。

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.
迎着日出（或日出前）起床，使得苹果公司CEO蒂姆•库克、创智赢家投资人凯文•奥利里等高管们在新的一天抢先一步，在别人还在床上打滚时就开始打怪得分了。

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.
这些“多出来”的时间受干扰较少，带着新生的活力，高管们可以打破常规创新思考，健健身，陪陪家人。有一点要说的是，早起并不是剥夺睡眠——最聪明的领导都知道，只有整晚充足的睡眠才能带来效率的提升。

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.'"
根据《时代》周刊的一篇人物介绍，“他每天凌晨3:45起床（“是的，每天”），处理一小时邮件，把比他早三个时区的东海岸的懒人都甩在后面。接着去健身房，然后去星巴克，在那里继续处理邮件，最后去上班。‘说白了，当你热爱你做的事情时，你不会认为那是工作。你会觉得这就是你该做的。幸运的是我的情况就是如此。’”
