    Building wealth involves developing good habits like regularly putting money away in intervals for solid investments. Financial management is a crucial topic that most tend to shy away from, and ends up haunting them in the near future. Putting our time and effort in activities and investments that will yield a profitable return in the future is what we should be aiming for. Success depends on the actions or steps you take to achieve it, "I pray that anyone who reads this will be successful in life

    There are little studies about the harms of caffeine because it is a billion dollar industry. After I quit a caffeine: - More stable energy throughout the day - Less gut problems - Beter sleep, waking up wel rested - Beter focus and mental clarity - Less anxiety and grounded in social situations - More stable mind Any many more benefits. All the benefits caffeine gives in the short term damage the long term capacities.
  • I do kinda like Buddha's teachings, but it's more accurate to say life is stress. Rather than life is suffering. I'm 31 and I don't think I've "suffered" for a very long time. Stress, on the other hand, never ends.
  • I can hop out of bed ready to seize the day BECAUSE I quit coffee. I grew up drinking coffee from my early teens. I've always had to drag myself out of bed and couldn't function or handle people until I'd been awake (and thus caffeinated) for a couple of hours. When I quit smoking in 2015 I quit coffee too because I knew if I drank coffee I would crave a smoke. Within three weeks I was waking up ready to go. I could have conversations with people pretty much right away. Since then I have gotten back on the coffee a handful of times (but thankfully never picked smoking back up) and I can say with certainty that coffee is the reason I drag out of bed. Coffee is the reason I'm tired if I don't have enough coffee. When I'm off coffee my energy is just fine.

    Oxygen is the world's most addictive and powerful drug. Trying to quit is deadly, and you'll spend your whole life just chasing that next breath!
  • The most informative. Yet increased my craving for another ☕️
  • The mostpowerful and most addictive drug is adrenaline which is why the human masses are so easily controlled by those who truely run this false realm from behind the public eye. Biggest producer of adrenaline is FEAR. Keep the masses in a constant low level of FEAR and you control them with ease

    Drugs often imitate chemical neurotransmitters. For example most hallucinogens resemble serotonin. So when your serotonin receptors receive a signal that looks a lot like serotonin but it's not being stimulated from an outside source then you have an hallucination. EDIT:What I mean is that a hallucinogen will enter into a serotonin receptor but it will not be received from the opposite serotonin transmitter and that's what causes an hallucination
  • I LOVE COFFEE. I've become a slight coffee snob, but not overly so. I like to grind my own beans (Dunkin'), that's about it. I have a large cup in the morning - 5 cups according to my little Mr Coffee maker. I work out of town, stay at various hotels Monday through Thursday and bring along my own drip machine, grinder, etc. I often drink a cup or two throughout the day on weekends. I also like to have a half a cup or so right before bed. God Bless the discoverers of this Heavenly heated beverage.

    It’s about choice. If you want to be in the driving seat then you should be able to choose if you want a coffee. It’s a mental thing. I once worked in a coffee shop (amazing coffee) and was drinking a lot of coffee. I was feeling quite out of control with it. So I did a detox, overnight, and was very very sick. In bed with massive headache and asleep for 24 hours. Many years later I was advised to quit coffee again due reflux issues. This time I gradually swapped for decaf. Super easy for me. No issues. Tastes the same to me. I now have a couple of coffees a week. No issue if I don’t, I just like a treat sometimes. No reflux and parts of my mind really appreciate my choosing not needing. ❤
