今年的《財富》40位40歲以下商界精英榜單中仍然有夜貓子。早間慣例包括猛喝咖啡,或者為了節(jié)省幾分鐘邊淋浴邊刷牙,不過也有一些上榜人士表示喜歡在早餐、徒步旅行或工作日開始時享受一些安靜時刻。
以下是今年上榜精英開啟一天的方式:
散步
谷歌(Google)的首席可持續(xù)發(fā)展官凱特·勃蘭特首選的喘息之地是身處自然。她說,只要沒有特殊情況,每天早上都會在塔瑪佩斯山(Mount Tamalpais)家附近的紅杉林(Redwood Forest)中走一走。“漫步林間聆聽溪流鳥鳴,哪怕只有20或30分鐘,都能夠讓我堅定目標,為一天的工作理清思緒?!辈m特說。
學生債務危機中心(Student Debt Crisis Center)的計劃主任科迪·霍納尼安喜歡早晨做些讓人踏實的事情。通常包括遛狗,在陽臺上讀新聞,或者聽聽鳥鳴?!爸匾氖切乱惶扉_始時釋放壓力,頭腦清醒,做好心理準備迎接新的挑戰(zhàn)。”他說。
喝咖啡
塔吉特公司(Target)的高級店面設計經理杰西卡·拉什喜歡早上,雖然經常有點混亂。“有兩個孩子和一條狗,即便計劃再完美,每天早上還是會像電影《小鬼當家》(Home Alone)一樣,每個人都睡過頭,而且都要遲到?!彼f。盡管如此,她還是努力找到了早晨的主題:在廚房煮咖啡,看看趴在腳邊的狗狗,給孩子做午餐,一邊查詢明尼蘇達州的天氣。
富達投資公司(Fidelity Investments)的私募股權全球主管卡林·弗龍茲克表示,三個孩子就是活鬧鐘。她說:“通常天一亮孩子們就跑到我的房間,我讓他們看早間動畫片,同時用手機查看郵件和當天日程安排?!敝螅杭彝ピ绮秃鸵淮髩乜Х龋_啟新一天。
牛排(和雞蛋?)
FIGS的聯合創(chuàng)始人和聯合首席執(zhí)行官希瑟·哈森說,每天早上為寵物狗羅杰(Roger)做牛排,然后騎上Peloton單車,邊健身邊閱讀新聞。每周她都換種音樂聽。
Perch的創(chuàng)始人兼首席執(zhí)行官克里斯·貝爾每天一早就去健身房,早上6:30開始做早餐,這樣就有時間跟女兒們一起吃飯。工作日前兩個小時他盡量不安排會議,這樣就可以專心完成工作或戰(zhàn)略性思考業(yè)務。
熬過早起
美國保護聯盟(American Conservation Coalition)的創(chuàng)始人兼總裁本杰明·巴克爾說,自己不是早起型的人,“多年來嘗試了無數的早起習慣”。最近他一直在做不含糖的冰茶和早餐,閱讀體育新聞,或者在公寓里遠眺奧林匹克山脈。
“我做了所有‘不該做的事情’,”Niantic的首席運營官梅根·奎因說,她通常在天亮之前醒來,在床上就開始查閱電子郵件、上Slack和推特(Twitter),然后“喝幾杯咖啡”。之后吃飯、穿衣服,跟兩歲的孩子玩,然后跑5公里到8公里?!半m說是老生常談,但早晨確實是我唯一的獨處機會,我能夠思考不同的項目、挑戰(zhàn),還有新的一天?!彼f。
Zipline的首席執(zhí)行官凱勒·里那杜說,早晨醒來的時間大概是出門前五分鐘。一邊洗澡一邊刷牙,快速喝一杯蛋白質奶昔,這樣可以節(jié)約時間。Instacart的首席執(zhí)行官菲姬·西莫說,每天都趕著最后一分鐘醒來,抱著女兒,在床上看電子郵件(“我知道不該這么做?!彼f),一邊吃能多益(Nutella)吐司(“我也不該這么做?!保?。
雖然Moderna的疫苗分配與合作伙伴高級總監(jiān)漢密爾頓·貝內特表示,曾經多次參加各種晨間活動,還“簡短嘗試”過日常冥想,但她承認最后總會變回老樣子。通常情況下,她的早晨慣例是“每天第一通電話前20分鐘起床,玩?zhèn)€‘早上7點前拼命喝咖啡’的游戲。其實,這個游戲從沒有贏家?!彼f。(財富中文網)

This year’s Fortune 40 Under 40 class has its share of night owls. Some morning routines include multiple cups of coffee, or brushing teeth in the shower to save a few minutes—though some honorees say they relish a few quiet moments for breakfast, a hike, or getting a head start on the workday.
Here’s how this year’s class start out their day:
Walking it off
Nature has proved to be a respite for Kate Brandt, chief sustainability officer of Google, who says she hikes in the Redwood Forest near her home on Mount Tamalpais every morning she can. “Being in the trees and hearing the streams and birdsong, even just 20 or 30 minutes, keeps me grounded in my purpose and clears my mind for the day,” Brandt says.
Cody Hounanian, director of the Student Debt Crisis Center, likes to start his day off with activities that will help him feel grounded. That usually includes taking the puppy on a walk around the neighborhood, reading the news from his balcony, or listening to the birds. “It is important to start the day stress-free, clearheaded, and mentally prepared to take on the day's challenges,” he says.
Staying caffeinated
Jessica Raasch, senior store design manager at Target, loves mornings, even if they can sometimes be a bit chaotic. “With two young children and a puppy, even the best-laid plans result in mornings that resemble the scene from Home Alone when everyone has overslept and is running late,” she says. Even so, she’s managed to find a common thread: brewing coffee in the kitchen, dog underfoot, making her kids’ lunches, and checking the Minnesota weather.
Three children make for a doable alarm clock, according to Karin Fronczke, global head of private equity at Fidelity Investments. “Usually the kids come running up to my room at sunrise and I let them watch morning cartoons while I check my emails and schedule for the day from my phone,” she says. Later on: a family breakfast and a large pot of coffee to start off the day.
Steak (and eggs?)
Heather Hasson, the cofounder and co-CEO of FIGS, says she starts off the day cooking steak for her dog, Roger, before hopping on the Peloton and reading the news. She listens to a new genre of music each week.
Chris Bell, founder and CEO of Perch, goes to the gym each morning, then starts cooking breakfast at 6:30 a.m. so he has time to eat with his daughters. He tries to leave the first two hours of his workday meeting-free, so that he can focus on getting work done or thinking strategically about the business.
Getting through it
Benji Backer, president and founder of the American Conservation Coalition, says he isn’t much of a morning person and has “tried countless morning routines over the years.” Of late, he has been making unsweetened iced tea and breakfast, reading sports news, or staring out at the Olympic mountains from his apartment.
“I do all of the things you're ‘not supposed to do,’” says Megan Quinn, chief operating officer of Niantic, who says she typically wakes up before it’s light outside and immediately reads email, Slack, and Twitter from bed, followed by “more than a couple cups of coffee.” Later you will find her feeding, clothing, and playing with her 2-year-old before heading out for a three- to five-mile run. “It's a cliché, but it's truly the only time I'm alone, and it gives me an opportunity to think through the strategy for different projects, challenges, and the day ahead,” she says.
Keller Rinaudo, CEO of Zipline, says he wakes up about five minutes before heading out the door. Brushing his teeth in the shower and grabbing a quick protein shake can save time. Fidji Simo, CEO of Instacart, says she wakes up at the last possible minute each day, cuddles with her daughter, then reads emails in bed (“I know I’m not supposed to do that,” she says), and eats Nutella toast (“I’m not supposed to do that either”).
While Hamilton Bennett, senior director of vaccine access and partnerships at Moderna, says she has had stints with various morning routines, including a “brief relationship” with daily meditation, she acknowledges that she often reverts to old habits. More often than not, her routine is “waking up 20 [minutes] before the first call of the day and playing a game of ‘how much coffee is too much coffee before 7 a.m.’ There are no winners in this game,” she says.
