    So basically you workout and check emails all day. What an inspiration

    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.'
  • @mrgoferdather
    fun fact: if the same video was much slower with calming background music, it would've seemed as if her life is normal with just a bunch of meetings here and there

    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.

    I get headache watching this video.

    So its basically: sleep work work work work repeat. You guys are living the dream.. Keep it up!

    No hobbies? No spontaneity? No social life? Structure is great, but don’t forget to live. We’re not robots after all.

    What the title should have been : Showing yourself to be larger than life to promote your impractical and over priced product
  • @Davidk.p4
    She accomplishes so many things while doing absolutely nothing all at the same time
  • @drewsykes8152
    I can’t wait for the day I never encounter phrases like “KPIs”, “dashboard”, “workflow”, “quarterly review” again. Life’s too short.
  • 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!

    She conveniently left-out the part where he cheats, they fight and the two separate.

    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?
  • @aa888zz
    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".
  • @musabumair8192
    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.
