“I go to bed early, I wake up early, I like to play in the morning. I like to read the newspaper, I like to drink coffee, I like to have breakfast with my kids before they go to school. My play time is very important to me. That's why I scheduled my first meeting for 10 am,” he said in the video.

He also said he likes to end his high-IQ meetings before lunch.

“Like anything that's really challenging mentally, it's a 10 a.m. meeting. And since I can't think about it anymore at 5 p.m. today, let's try again tomorrow at 10 a.m.,” Bezos said.
