“I hate it, but it's over fast.”

In the morning, I take five Duolingo lessons. I do three French lessons, one Portuguese lesson, and, of late, a Japanese lesson.

It’s mostly to test out the product: My teams get reports from me at 6:30 a.m. every day, saying, “You should fix this,” or “You should improve this.” Then I work out. I do some weight training, followed by 16 minutes of running as fast as I can, which is like 9 miles an hour. When I do it, I look like I’m having a heart attack. I do it to optimize my time— I burn about 360 calories. I hate it, but it’s over fast.

Then I head to the office. I believe in everyone being in the office together, so we are getting back to that [with employees coming in three days a week, starting in January]. It’s important to have serendipitous interactions to generate good ideas. I try to break for lunch with my employees at least a couple times a week. I like to hear about their lives outside of work.
