  • I call this effect borrowing energy from the future.

    I used to drink around 3 big mugs of coffee a day. Then I just stopped, cold turkey. Took a few months to get adjusted. But what surprised me, is that ALL tolerance to caffeine is gone. If I drink a cup of black tea, I will feel more focussed for a few hours, and less focussed a day or two afterwards.

    I now only drink caffeine strategically. If I think todays problems are more important than the next two days problems, I drink some black tea or a cup of coffee. Otherwise I stick to decaf coffee, which fills the habit of drinking coffee perfectly.















  • Boardgame groups are great for low-stress social interactions. You don’t need to be good at anything. And when the social aspect becomes too much, you can focus on the game for a bit. The people you meet are also likely to be tolerant and understanding towards any social issues you have, as you are likely not the only one with a label.
