Meta CTO Andrew Bosworth says real stress hits just four to five times yearly

It comes when his calendar gets cluttered

Meta CTO Andrew Bosworth says he experiences genuine stress only four or five times a year. Rather than blaming deadlines or workplace conflict, he calls it a signal that his schedule has grown too cluttered to focus on meaningful work. His response is not to push harder, but to reprioritise—backed by exercise, breathing, and intentional family time.
