Coffee Isn’t the Villain, But Timing Is
Quitting coffee taught me that caffeine isn’t evil; misuse is. I had been using it to compensate for poor rest and fragmented attention.
Without it, my energy dipped initially, then stabilized. I started noticing natural peaks and valleys instead of forcing performance.
Coffee works best when layered on top of clarity, not chaos. Used correctly, it amplifies focus. Used incorrectly, it amplifies distraction.
Most people aren’t addicted to coffee. They’re addicted to avoiding low-energy moments.
