My favorite kitchen appliance is my coffee maker. Not because it produces a beverage I love, but because it has an automatic timer. Before I go to bed, I can set it to be ready when I wake up the next day. And I think that’s just about the coolest thing ever (it’s not that hard to impress me, can you tell?).
But, what I’ve realized about myself is that I don’t like relying on that morning brew to drag me out of bed each day. More so, I enjoy it as a mid-morning treat. And as someone who’s trying to cut down on her caffeine intake, I can’t have a mug of it at the break of dawn (ahem—an hour later) and at my desk. I have to choose one, and most days it’s the latter.
So, without that steaming cup of joe to get me out from under my covers, how do I do it? Well, believe it or not, there are others ways you can make yourself rise and shine without coffee, and you can watch this video to find out what they are. I promise—you can still get to work on time and have a productive morning.
Let me know which one you choose on Twitter!
