1) Cut down on Sleep and Keep Fit
'I get up at 3:30 every morning and I’m at the gym by 4. Then I ride 25 miles on my bike before breakfast. Being in shape is what gives me energy.'
Jordan Zimmerman is the founder of Zimmerman Advertising, which has 22 offices and billings in excess of $2.6 billion.
2) Organize Your Daily Interruptions
'A daily memo, which I read after I go home every night. It's in four parts:
i) My next day's schedule
ii) List of questions that cropped up during the day. I'll respond to those right away.
iii) FYIs: information I don't have to act on but might like to know. Maybe my mother called to make a reservation for her neighbor next week at Blue Smoke. Or there might be a change in my schedule.
iv) Longer-term reminders. I promised to write a blurb for a friend's book. I want to plan a vacation, so I need to check on my kids' school schedules.'
Danny Meyer is the CEO of Union Square Hospitality Group, which owns 13 New York city restaurants, including Gramercy Tavern and Eleven Madison Park.
