Forbes covers the intersection of entrepreneurship, wealth, technology, business and lifestyle with a focus on people and success.
So basically you workout and check emails all day. What an inspiration
👏👏😂😂
I mean tbf it's a very simplified version of what takes place. They're not gonna go into detail of product roadmap/strategy/technology in a 2 minute Forbes video lol.
This is a one way ticket to a burnout. After which, this clip would morphe to 'How Matteo and I found our self's back with Minimalism in our camper van.'
Not true, if you are dedicated and have the right mindset this is nothing
Mohamed YT but you must also take good care of your health even if you’re a very busy person
@@blanchegreco7201 This type of life style requires you to be excellent at managing your health, otherwise you are destroying yourself I agree. Health is the most important thing you can have no doubt.
lol
Who doesn’t wanna speed run getting to look like grandma or grandpa…. Because waiting decades is for noobs
Powered by Samsung
Phone she uses is iPhone and uses a Mac
HAHHAA
lol
Lol
lotta hardware in the iphone is from samsung and they earn a shitload of money for every sold iphone
well iPhone is powered by samsung.
So its basically: sleep work work work work repeat. You guys are living the dream.. Keep it up!
Thats a dream?
The sarcasm is strong in this one
The problem is you see work as work, their hobby is their work. Your sarcasm is on you.
I wake up at 5 am, exercising and taking our breakfast at the same time, so I can launch 3 online shops while Im in a shower.
At 9 am, I have a meeting to discuss whats work and whats not. For me, everything has to work, so I will take an extra work while eating lunch, so I can launch and analyze facebook ads while I take 30 minutes of productive nap.
You're like me. I went to bed at 10pm, created 3 companies while sleeping last night, woke up at 4 am. Productivity is key. I like to analyze the stock market during my daily 30 min powernap, and workout while having meetings, and settle down in the evenings by having meetings until bedtime.
She doesn't go to washroom the whole day 😱😨
vikas pawar 😂😂😂
vikas pawar lol 😂 ikr
hahahahaha
vikas pawar lol
nah. peeing and pooing is for suckers.
I get headache watching this video.
thought it was just me
I couldn't leave you guys alone
me too
leepakim same this life is not desirable sorry

*What the title should have been :* Showing yourself to be larger than life to promote your impractical and over priced product
12345a this is how many people do it nowadays. It's pretend till people actually think you are what you pretend to be. Like the person who tells everyone they are a developer, but they can't do a lick of code outside of html and css.
She's pretty and bitchy. Must be materialistic too. Thinks her product will be the Uber of this and that and be the next FB.
Spot on. Honestly that's marketing online for you.
Yea i dont know any retail store that sell their smart mattress
Top 10 haters to sit on my face😂😂😂
So they wake up at 7am, drink a coffee/lemon drink/, workout, shower/dress, commute to the work, go have a 20-30 minute breakfast, then are in the office in a meeting at 9am? Hmmm... I don't believe!
Haha, agree! Workout + shower & dress is at least an hour. And if it's just an hour for that then it's no workout just an act of it.
Yeah. Maybe waking up at 6am is believable.
Work out and dressed by 8, breakfast til 8.25 then 5-15min trip to work by about 8.30-40. Checks out.
Remember they said they eat breakfast in the 20-30min gained by avoiding the subway.
and also putting makeup on
Some of these videos about people are all the same. Wake up, go to meeting, review kpi, send email, review team performance. I wish they would do these on the people who actually do the work, not the ones that "review performance".
That would be boring because the scope would be too low level.
that's the problem when good employees start leaving
They want to show that they are larger than life so people want to follow them and get their products
It is all just a sham , not reality
I agree, need more variety
What do these people even do? Is marketing just a sham?
I'm the co founder of 8.... I wake up every morning at 7
No hobbies? No spontaneity? No social life?
Structure is great, but don’t forget to live. We’re not robots after all.
She's spontanoues in deviating from her schedule by 1 second.
They are!
I guess she loves it and it's fun for her. I'd rather chill and waste time.
Yeah good for her but this almost seems depressing. At less hopefully they'll retire early
Wasting time is boring and you'll get tired from it pretty quick
Thats coz you've got no ambitions in life! You rather feed from a guy and take up all his possessions! 21st century women for you!!!
you think this is what they do every single day. maybe they travel and lounge often
hahaha same
She accomplishes so many things while doing absolutely nothing all at the same time
Real talk she seems like the type of person who would stab someone in the neck with a knife over something small. lol
@@frankie2936 she mentored 3 people and checked on something then went home like where tf is she making money at
This is so inspiring! I hope one day I get to think about work all day.
Just a productive life: no music, no art, no dreaming and meditation...
rodibremo exactly, what a waste of life, work, work, work.
Looks to me like they are making their dream come true. Not to mention the fact that operating and growing a successful business is a true form of art. Just because it doesn't match the same art, dreams, and meditation you have, doesn't mean its not there.
Right, but they exposed their agenda and no traces of such things..
You forgot dancing. No dancing - no life.
Yes, and singing...
I sleep during shower then meditate on a KPI meeting while listening to 2 audio books, one in each ear, at 5x the speed. Then i workout on the treadmill while self publishing entire college textbooks. I skip lunch so that I can save more time. I breathe at 10x the speed to inhale as much oxygen as possible to be able to do it all over again tomorrow. And yes, I also sleep at 2x the speed so I’m ready for the day at least 3 days ahead of time but still have my girlfriend waiting on ETA.
I can’t wait for the day I never encounter phrases like “KPIs”, “dashboard”, “workflow”, “quarterly review” again. Life’s too short.
Anybody else got anxiety thanks to the background music? LOL.
Also, when she gets out of bed, she has very hairy, manly legs. (I know, those are her husband's, but that is some bad editing.)
no
Jas it's not the music, it's her life routine
That makes 2 of us. So annoying.
Jas i got anxiety from the lifeless look on their faces .thanks to their mediocre life
The great thing about this is that she's getting about 8.5 hours of sleep every night and is still being extremely productive!
shes getting a good amount however that much commitment and strict routine will surely cause for a crashing down effect no?
actually 8.5 hours of sleep is a huuuuge amount of time
Invest In Yourself Best part is she is not dependent on coffee or tea.
Not if she can handle it.
Why do you think so?
She conveniently left-out the part where he cheats, they fight and the two separate.
LOL omg
Brilliant 😂
or she cheats.
Propaganda for building a highly efficient city with elite workforce (i mean slave, but very smart one).
Saudi Arabia is building Neom, a robot city that will have more robots than humans. The goal is that we act more robot-like, or else we’ll be replaced.
S S if robots replace humans, we will all be beggars as there is no way we are more efficient than them.
how do the masters (creators) of these robots earn benefit from their creation? Think about this more you will discover more outcomes than we can possibly imagine.
Why do we need to compete with robots in their strongest field?
We should try to differentiate ourselves with them. Like making arts and sports (football match with "perfect" AI players will not be entertaining to watch).
Or as the Hindus would say, śūdras.
If you're unable to state whether you're a work slave or not (whilst "workaholic" is a more polite way to say it), you're not smart, despite qualifications and/or degrees.
There are people with sleep apnea, anxiety disorder who can't even get sleep even if they wanted. Means to an end? Are you serious?
If you have those problems you should be working on fixing them not bashing people who don’t have those problems
@@fakename3208 I don't have these problems. I think the video is downplaying the value of sleep especially for those who got medical conditions that hinder their sleep. It was 2017, the height of the internet hustle porn.
The funny thing is this company's product is a smart mattress that's supposedly very good for sleep apnea
Up at 7, breakfast, meetings, lunch, meetings, dinner, bed. Wow this daily routine is really out of the ordinary...!
seriously depressing. you can be successful without all this stress
how do you know they're stressed? you don't
@@hwago123 yes you do.
I imagine a SNL skit where they're getting it on, while reviewing KPIs on their smart phones for the next day e-commerce sales stats. So productive, so happy - how amazing!
so you no bang?
The woman always climaxed before her husband, so they decided to fap instead when time permits, making their schedule more efficient.
Kaiser Puppydog 👏😂
Go Fap Army !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@@kaiserpuppydog7174 haha
@@kaiserpuppydog7174 omgaaaa lol
KPI and KPI and emails and targets and goals. I've been working in a corporation for 2 years and when I hear one of those terms IT makes me sick
gocha goska i worked in recruitment for 3 months and those words make me sick 😂 Honestly, it's not a life
what a mechanical life ..eeww
Family engineering 2018:
No kids
No life
No art
Robots
Slaves to the system
you're right,but probably they are focusing on career while there is plenty of energy(being young) and later on kids :-?
Wait, what was the point of this video? 🤔
How do you call this happiness???This is sheer madness.Perfect recipe for a burnout
Ain't nothing wrong with being relentless, and I'm sure they love doing what they do and derive much joy from it. But I could never stick to a strict routine like them. I enjoy sleeping on the weekends far too much.
She forgot to mention that mate looks like he's older by like 25 years. Nice sponsor relation you have here
Christ this is depressing
It’s so sad, wake up, eat, work, sleep is literally all our schedules in life
Power couple
power mediocre douchebags
@@steppe7214 +1 but dont waste time on fools
@@steppe7214 if u think that is hard working you havent worked hard yet.
Background music make me sooth . Very melodious!
Now that' s how you do marriage ! ;) so romantic
yes who doesnt love being intimate while talking about work haha
They'll be divorced real soon, and she'll take more than half of everything that he has!
No offence, but this life they are living looks so shitty. What are they actually doing for fun? Do they even have social life?
Yea!
This is idealised. Couples who do business together end up arguing over business a lot more often than those who don't work together. The sharing of stress exacerbates this. What you are seeing is delusion.
awwwwww. a power couple. so sweet. makes me want to cry myself to sleep.
most of these startups provide nothing ... its always some sort of mentoring
It's just cool to say I work at a STARTUP instead of saying I'm a developer, banker, doctor, lawyer etc. When you tell people you work at a start up it sounds more edgy.
This comment is the best. It's true!! They always said they produce this and that but all they do is coaching other people how to do business because their own product failed to make sales!!
I feel more productive after watching this video.
Now I'm gonna order some pizza to reward myself.
She kinda looks like Meghan Markle aka. Rachel Zane from Suits
Where is Mike?
SlashFlashTrash nah she arent half black unlike meghan markle
Yeah,thought it was her
SlashFlashTrash Aka- princess of GB
No
I’m a newbie in vending machine business and I must say that choosing Gagake Spa massage chairs as my partner is one of the best decision I’ve made. They are very accommodating, easy to talk with and offer a lot of help.
Let me get this straight, no shower in the morning, you live 2 blocks away from the office, no traffic whatsoever, you teleport- park the vespa beside your office. No need to unlock the doors, your workstation are always on, you type two characters and click send before the meeting. while the rest of the team arrives a few seconds later like clockwork. How is that even possible in just two hours? My first two hours in the morning are spent on waking up, preparing breakfast, taking a shower, arguing with my wife while choosing my clothes to wear and checking my emails, looking for my car key, getting newspaper/mails, that's it.
I can't breathe watching this video
Where can I order a robot like her to do all my chores and cook for me.
Ew disgusting
Amen to that
She's sexy
Maybe from her? It would be great business to clone herself and turn fotocopies into merchandise
Honestly, I didn´t know why this was recommended to me but... I suffered every second of those 2:02 minutes, like if that was my day as well.
LOL
Texting while walking is not safe
Are we slowly turning into robots? that video scares me.
With the amount of things they did in the mornings it seemed like by the time she reached office it will be 11am.
tbh this is a typical normal day for most people who work in startup companies, the video just makes it look busier and more intense because of the pace and music.
robots
hmm same thinking as i do
Me 2 😐
More like "Mister Rogers' Neighborhood and the Land of Make Believe." I would bet that there is no crime where they live and everyone is nice and friendly.
they are the perfect product of the system
I cant beliebe there r men out there who is cooking dinner together...they r angels in disguise
who do the dishes?
anuragfreak a dishwasher
You: "Who do the dishes?"
Me: "Joe!"
You: "Joe who?"
Me: "Joe momma!"
"Joe" must sound like "your". Got it from series "According to Jim". And watching it wasn't waste of time, because I got to use that joke here.
You are so right hahah
anuragfreak They don’t have any. It’s just the two of them. No kids. Or did you miss that?
Wow ... "Clarified" the importance of personal well being & very focussed Time Management... Thanku much 👍☺🌻❗
After watching video: wow...so inspirationl...
after reading comments: yaah man...you are right...thats so funny...!!
I love this music, what is the name and how can I find more of it?
This is fake.
I know right?, from your point of view, women doing this sounds like science fiction. She she be home cooking and sweeping right? tsk tsk those bad women.
So from 7am to 9am's first meeting they manage to drink water & coffee, change into workout clothes, exercise, shower, commute, have breakfast, do some catch up work. That is amazing.
tries not to divorce
Enrico Belardi 😁
This is the meaning of life for you? A caffeine fueled day of back to back meetings? I'll pass
Not inspirational, not healthy...
@Invisible Spectator how to not be deadbeats in your moms basement earning $12.50 an hour at age 30 sounds better..
This isn't every day, this is just a typical workday. They should do the sequel on the weekend.
Agreed
I enjoy these short look into other entrepreneurs routine
"And then I continue being other-worldly beautiful and graceful". You forgot to squeeze that in between somewhere.
Enjoyed the video,i sit all day watching youtube,quarantine life
She would never get the time for her life. Literally I am thinking for her life. What does she feel about and how mechanical this all is. When does she get time to pray, to meditate and other stuff.
Just breathe, relax and noticing
Wake at 7 do a workout commute to work by bike in 20 minutes and have breakfast before getting in the office and first meetings at 9,,,,,,
Not realistic at all...
I'm very envious of people like this. I've tried to be hyper-productive, but I simply can't. It's not about willpower, my mind just can't do it.
Sounds like the horrific NY life I use to live...i worked for Martha stewart (it's like working for the devil wears Prada)...it was a horribly stressful job...I packed my bags after 5 years and moved to Florida, I'm so much happier now. Advice for melinials: dont romanticize work! Make sure you have a work life balance, if you have to wake up.at 4:am everyday so that you can work, eat and socialize that means you dont have a job with work-life balance.
I wake up when my body asks me to (usually at 6:30 am), I meditate, have breakfast and work for 2 hours. Then I play on the computer for 1-2 hours and work 1 more hour. Then I make my lunch, eat and rest for about 1 hour. Then I work for 1-2 hours and usually finish work about 5 pm. Then I take more time for me to read, have a 1 hour walk, meditate and play. Then I do some calesthenics and have a shower. Then I read, listen to a good album in bed or watch a movie/series. And then I sleep. I have about 6 hours of "me time" a day. Your life seems perfect... if you are playing to the gallery. But when are you going to play truly for yourselves? For the kid you have in you... He/she is still there silently crying for you to play with him/her...
Careful with your back, you should bring your laptop closer and having lunch at your desk is a really bad habit. You would be more focused if you took a proper 20/30 min break.
Thank you. Exactly my thoughts.
This is great
"squeeze in a quick call to my mom"
Should maybe be a higher priority than that.
Sure!
They are really productive, that's great, but I would prefer some free time as well
Just some filler content. She is doing well for herself by following a routine, but nothing really showing any ideas or creativity.
Thank you! I could make the same kind of video about a professor and hype it up with "awesome research meetings!", but they are just overworked like any business owner.
I just want a life that doesn’t revolve around my job
I think this is the best couple ever.
I'm watching this at 3:30 am...
And I'm not even tired yet... my body is ruined
I'm watching it at 4 am. I win.
@@aryamanbhandary1898 I'm replying to this and it's 2:10 am in my country... so I didn't even use this video for any benefit.
@@brod515 I doubt anyone has tbh.
We all need to follow this like sheep. However the exercise and turmeric water are definitely good tips.
can someone tell me the Name of Background music
She's good for the economy
you wake up at 7 but check sleep stats at 6.33 am, then u do your morning routine plus workout plus 30 min commute and attend first meeting at 9.. how fake can someone be ???
presented by Samsung but use iPhone.. lol
Google User she says most days around 7 and the intention for the clip is because she said 7 don’t take it to literally
The perfect couple ❤
There life seems to suck! Where os the living, they are just robots!
Neo Surge06 how does their life suck?
Simon Wu well, it is presented in such a way, all hectic and timely.
But i guess it is better than mine right now as i am a medical student and final exams are going on.
Neo Surge06 I mean, if you end up being a doctor, it'll be much more hectic than theirs, 80 hours a week. Life should be hectic, if you find yourself with free time, something is wrong, 24 hours is such a small time if you think about it :)
Harvey Shan yeah i know but there should be some flexibility in the timing of every activity, Don't you think?
Neo Surge06 i cannot imagine seeing the same person 24/7. I'd go out of my mind. Everyone needs time away from each other and have their own life experiences. I'd wanna throw up after a month.
So perfect life!
All done without a smile.
Unfortunately 2 strict... 😁
How interesting!!
That's our economy now, 90% hot air
*Jealous*
Great pair
Some people make it out to be like she's going to live a miserable life. I'm sure this is her regular routine for the weekday but don't forget about the weekend. I'm also sure she has time to listen to music lol (I saw someone comment that she didn't have time for music because she didn't mention listening to it).
She's sooooo beautiful
Love couples that work together. Good job !
If they're happy doing what they love, then good for them
I'd rather be poor than live your life. Sounds overly busy and awful.
U haven't been poor then
No, you wont. People that make this statement like you usually the one who have privilege in many material things and never ever once experienced the poor lives
@@muhammadhaikalpermanaatmaj73 lol. You know what they say about assuming don't you?
What was the point of this video?
Interesting video, however this definitely is not a "typical" day. You don't meet up with entrepreneurs every single day, and you don't get calls from retailers every single day.
