When Zuckerberg wakes up between 7:00 a.m. and 7:30 a.m., usually to the sound of one of his three daughters, he is immediately pulled into his phone.
But the tech billionaire has a morning hack to manage stress and better launch into problem-solving mode. It’s essential as remote work and 24/7 communication have blurred the lines between work and home life.
“I compose myself and go fight for two hours, recenter myself, and it’s like, now I can go deal with this stuff,” he said on the podcast.
“I wake up, and I fight people,” he told Von.
And Zuckerberg adds that he fights for about two hours in the morning. “I’m doing more striking, and that’s really fun,” he said. “I think it’s the greatest sport. It’s neurologically stimulating. It’s good cardio.”
“What’s a thing that’s both super engaging physically, but also intellectually, where you can’t afford to focus on something else?” he said to Rogan. “After an hour or two of working out or rolling or wrestling with friends or training with different folks, now I’m ready to go solve whatever problem at work for the day.”
