Reasons Why Early Birds Are Exceptionally Successful
By Peter EconomyThe Leadership Guy
1. You may be a natural born early bird
According to researchers, about 10 percent of us are born early birds. If that's the case for you, then going along with your natural biological wiring will make you more effective--and more successful.
2. You're in good company
Many of today's most successful businesspeople are early birds, including PepsiCo CEO Indra Nooyi (4:00 AM), Apple CEO Tim Cook (4:30 AM), Richard Branson (5:45 AM), and Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz (4:30 AM).
3. There's a better chance you'll eat a good breakfast
According to a study conducted by the Harvard School of Public Health, people who don't eat breakfast have an increased risk of heart disease. If you're an early bird, you have more time in the morning to eat a good breakfast before you head off to work.
4. You're healthier
An article in a publication of the American Psychological Association revealed that early bird sleep patterns lead to better health outcomes.
5. Your mornings are extremely productive
Although they tend to burn out by the afternoon, the mornings of early birds are usually very productive.
6. You just might be more proactive
According to research conducted at Harvard University, early birds are more proactive--and therefore more productive and more successful.
7. You tend not to be overweight
Researchers at Drexel University found that early birds have a lower body mass index (BMI) than night owls.
8. You squeeze more time out of each day
If you wake up just one hour earlier each day, that amounts to 15 extra days of time each year--that's extra time to exercise, meditate, eat breakfast, catch up on the news, or to do whatever you like.
9. Early birds are happier
According to researchers at the University of Toronto, early birds are happier than the rest of us. And who doesn't want to be happier?

Unmanned stores in China still working on a seamless shopper experience

Unmanned store operators in China are using advanced technologies to enable human-free check out, while collecting valuable data in the process

A BingoBox unmanned convenience store in Shanghai. There are 200 stores in China, with plans to go international next year.
At first glance, there is nothing unusual about BingoBox’s convenience store – shelves stacked with snacks line the walls, tempting passers-by through the glass windows. But upon closer inspection, BingoBox is no ordinary store. The door unlocks only after customers scan a QR code to enter, and there is no cashier to tally up purchases – just a lone checkout counter in a corner.
The Shanghai-based company is one of many unmanned store operators opening outlets all over China, hoping to improve slim profit margins in the retail business by reducing staff costs.
“If capital costs rise quickly, that puts greater pressure on low-margin businesses like convenience stores and supermarkets,” said Andrew Song, an analyst at Guotai Junan Securities.
“In China, wages and manpower costs have been rising relatively quickly.”
However, the futuristic vision of shopping without a check out person is still a work in progress.
A Post reporter who visited a BingoBox store in Shanghai was briefly locked in when trying to exit without making a purchase. Although a sign near the exit stated that empty-handed customers can leave by scanning a QR code, no QR code was to be found. Repeated calls to the customer service hotline went unanswered.
