People struggling to scrape together a living are crammed in taxis at 5AM. The privileged have passive income & don't NEED to wake up early to survive. https://twitter.com/ChrisMunyinda/status/1166279463413399552

But what about Robin Sharma & the 5 AM club?!

Legacy wealth, fat dividends, large stock options & rental income makes it easier to spend your mornings exercising, learning & planning.

Waking up at 5AM (for work at 8AM) is a function of inequality, spatial planning & access.

The most uncomfortable pill to swallow is success isn't always a result of hard work, waking up early or strong work ethic.

Inheritances, strong networks, "right place/ right time", access to capital, fewer dependents, luxury of tertiary education... all influence success.

Lastly, the world is wired toward "early = better" despite people's natural biological energy patterns or their personalities.

Creative & highly intelligent people actually wake up later. Do what works for you, there is no set formula defining success. https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.businessinsider.com/successful-people-who-wake-up-late-2017-6

That's great to hear! Corporate culture is the worst incubator for innovation mostly owing to its structure (my view).

Let's get people into stuffy suits, pack them in boardrooms & have "brainstorming" sessions.

I have heard far better deal ideas over beers than the boardroom.
