If you’re an early riser, chances are you are a successful business executive. Some of the most successful businessmen and women have been notorious early risers including former Tampa Bay Buccaneers Coach Jon Gruden who used to wake up at 3am and head into the office. Tim Armstrong, CEO of AOL gets up at 5am because his motto is “life is too exciting to sleep.”

Many leaders are up early to conduct business on the other coast while many just want that time to go to the gym or catch up on email. The more stressful the job the odds are you are sleeping less too, leaving more time to think about the upcoming acquisition or the personnel decisions you’re waiting to make.

What time are you up each morning and what does it say about your success?
