10 Extremely Successful People Who Barely Sleep
Bangalore: What is the difference between someone who sleeps for 10-12 hours a day to someone who sleeps for 4 hours a day? According to some, the latter is more likely to be a successful entrepreneur or a scientist or a philanthropic leader. While scientist like Thomas Edison who preferred to sleep three hours in a day, declared sleeping as “a heritage from cave days”, today’s leading business entrepreneurs like Donald Trump, Jack Dorsey and Indra Nooyi believe that to be successful and productive in work, one has to effectively utilize the 24 hours to maximum extent, which can only happen through sacrificing a good, long shut-eye.
Here are 10 such successful people of our time, who excel through the day with least amount of sleep.
#10 Jack Dorsey
Founder, Twitter and CEO of Square
Jack Dorsey is the heart and soul of two popular tech startups, Twitter and Square. Juggling between two work places, doesn’t leave him much time for rest as he spends 10 hours a day at Square and puts in another 8 hours a day at Twitter. This leaves him 6 hours of personal time and taking off travel time, Jack is used to sleep for 4 to 5 hours a day. And amidst the hectic work schedule, he still manages to get up at 5:30 in the morning for a six mile jog.
