This packed-looking daily schedule prompted a mix of mockery and awe – 19 favourite responses
We’ve never mocked up a spreadsheet of our daily schedule, but if we did we’re pretty sure it wouldn’t like a whole lot like this.
It was shared on Twitter by @LeilaHormozi who by all accounts runs a ‘$200m portfolio of businesses’ and it’s either very impressive or utterly appalling, depending on your point of view.

It’s not easy to read so here it is again. It’s probably still not very easy to read but you’ll definitely get the idea.
Here’s a little bit more context from @LeilaHormozi.
Let’s address the elephant in the room.
This isn’t going to be another one of those woke hoorah threads.
I don’t journal, ice bathe, or use red light therapy.
I’m not saying those things don’t work.
I just prefer taking action.
Here’s how I do it:
— Leila Hormozi (@LeilaHormozi) December 2, 2022
I wake up at about 4 or 5AM.
From there I don’t check email or social media.
Instead, I grab a cup of coffee, and get to my deep work.
This lasts for a couple of hours.
I typically focus on the hardest/most important stuff first.

Then I hit the gym.
Sometimes I’ll listen to relevant podcasts/audio books.
Others I just rock out to some music.
After about an hour or so, I head back to work (no shower).

For the rest of the work day, I’m on calls.
Most of them are internal with my team—
But I’ll have the occasional client call.

Once I’m done with work, I meet up with Alex.
Most nights we eat out.
This saves us a ton of time.
And allows us to decompress.

That’s it about it…
That’s my “insane” daily routine.
It’s insanely boring.
But, if you want to get shit done…
There are no shortcuts/hacks.
You just have to do the work.

And while we’re very much of the ‘whatever works for you’ school of thought, it also prompted a lot of very entertaining replies. Here are just a few of them.

Executive jobs are so funny it's like their whole job is just to talk to other people about work some third person is maybe doing. https://t.co/zkDYjQ9zHJ
