25.01.2022 I literally have no desk in the world. I work on the street, phone in hand, he told The New York Times. I’ve occasionally been stuck at the corner of Prince and Mercer Streets in Manhattan not even realizing I’ve been standing there for 20 minutes responding to messages.

24.01.2022 "I go back to the studio around 9 or 10 at night and work there until, like, 4 or 5 in the morning. Then I go to sleep and start all over again. And I love my job."

24.01.2022 "My flagship restaurant in Chelsea has never been open on a Saturday and Sunday it’s never been open on a week-end, because I thought if we’re going to do this, I’d like to do this properly, so my staff needs time off. So I work hard, but I give myself time off on the week-end. I cut it off, and power down for 48 hours."

24.01.2022 I want my son and my wife to be in a certain position to be successful and happy. But I want to be the best wrestler in the world. Sometimes our dreams collide and intercede with each other."

23.01.2022 I’m pretty religious about getting up at 5 a.m. It’s my favorite time of day, she told The Cut. I get a cup of tea and I sit on the sofa and spend an hour writing longhand in a journal.

22.01.2022 "Before I found success in the Games, I trained as hard as I could all the time but I wasn’t putting in the same effort outside of the gym. I thought all the value was just in the training itself, but really it’s the small percentages that add up."

21.01.2022 "It is so important to have a love and a passion for what you do! Passion to do work with purpose and connect women is what drives me every day. Our goal at Freelancing Gems is to get women back to work sooner, and being able to connect with amazing women every day is my dream role!" Amanda Kelly, Co-Founder + Advertising & Partnerships Director at Freelancing Gems

20.01.2022 "I don’t know how many more fights I have. All I know is that I’m pushing myself with hard work. Motivation is a desire from my heart. I love doing what I do."

19.01.2022 "Go fast. It leaves you time to move onto the next great thing that day, be it work, family, friends or self."

18.01.2022 "In order to find balance, I feel very strongly about two things in particular in terms of routine. Work out, and eat well."

16.01.2022 "Being a working mom. It’s really hard. And the toughest part is that there are days where you just question whether you’re making the right decisions. You want to be in two places at once and it is not easy it’s just that simple."

16.01.2022 Whether it’s Lebron James with his 12-hours of sleep a day, Jack Dorsey having only one meal a day, Michelle Obama working out at 4.30am, or Aaron Levie’s evening power nap; here are some of the most interesting daily routines of successful people.

13.01.2022 My job is responsive to what the public and what our communities and people need. Work never really stops, she told Vanity Fair. As a member of Congress you have to be on call 24/7, especially for rapid response in breaking news. You have to kind of set hard rules for yourself, even though there is no off.

13.01.2022 "At 69 years old and leading Disney’s Board as Executive Chairman, with nothing left to prove, Iger still maintains the same work ethic he’s had for the past five decades."

12.01.2022 Our friends at Balance The Grind interviewed our Cofounder Emma Hoffman about #worklifebalance https://www.balancethegrind.com.au//emma-hoffman-co-found/

11.01.2022 "Perfection is not possible. Holding yourself and your work to a high standard is important as long as it is not a detriment to your mental health. Letting go is an essential part of stepping away from that unachievable goal."

11.01.2022 I live really close to Spanx, so I’ve created what my friends call my ‘fake commute,’ and I get up an hour early before I’m supposed to go to Spanx, and I drive around aimlessly in Atlanta with my commute so that I can have my thoughts come to me.

10.01.2022 "I see a lot of fighters get damaged, and I don’t want to be one of these guys. The fighter is always the last to know when it’s time to stop, but I wouldn’t have a problem right now to pull the plug and live my life healthy and happy."

09.01.2022 Lebron James gets in roughly 8 hours of sleep every day, plus a few naps. Meanwhile The Rock is up at 3.30am every morning getting in a work out. When he was President, Obama carved out personal time for himself in the late hours of the night, unlike Michelle who regularly woke up at 4.30am to exercise. In our Daily Routines ebook, we break down the habits, rituals and routines of the world’s most successful people, with a particular focus on how they manage their sleep.

08.01.2022 "I have a very specific set of steps, and once I find a routine that works, I codify until it’s perfected, minute-by-minute."

08.01.2022 "Work life balance implies there’s some sort of trade-off. I don’t believe that to have balance you are forgoing work hours. I think if you lead a balanced life you are a happier more energised and competent decision-maker at work and then at home are equally as high-performing. It’s not about making one thing a priority over the other but rather allowing them to work in sync."

06.01.2022 "Burnout is when you’re unable to get out of bed. I’m not there yet. But the White House is historically a tough beat. It’s typically a beat with a shelf life. But oh, I love my job. I love my job. I think what reporters do is incredibly important." Maggie Haberman // White House correspondent for The New York Times + CNN political analyst

06.01.2022 "Spending time with my family in the morning and at the end of the day brackets my work in a very strict way. I have to be a lot more intentional about how I spend my time."

05.01.2022 "During tournaments I don’t go out, I don’t party, I don’t even do any tourism. It would be a waste of time and energy. When you play chess at my level, preparation is as physical as it is mental, so yes, you can say it’s like an athlete." Magnus Carlsen // Norwegian chess grandmaster

04.01.2022 Whenever I'm asked about work/life balance I always struggle with my response. As a mum it's easy to question 'balance' and allow what other people think is rig...ht to cloud your judgement. I don't think I'll ever get the perfect balance but I've learnt to focus on what that means to those I love and forget the rest.

Special shout out to Justin Dry from Vinomofo for inspiring me to get back into my daily mindfulness practice.

04.01.2022 Gary Keller said it best: "Work is a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will bounce back. The other four balls family, health, friends, integrity are made of glass. If you drop one of these, it will be irrevocably scuffed, nicked, perhaps even shattered."

03.01.2022 "If you put them in a race with someone for one month, and one works 60-hour weeks, and one works 32, then yes, the person who worked 60 hours is going to get more done in that one month. How about in 12 months? How about in seven years?"
