The After-Noon Coffee Rule

I’m a big fan of black coffee. So much so that I decided to put it in some of my social media bios because apparently ‘coffee drinker’ is a personality trait.

I even have a cup with me now at 8:51pm.

And I’ll have another cup in a half hour or so.

But as much as I love coffee, I have this rule about drinking coffee any time after noon.

Before I share the rule, check this out…

Last year, I was a manager at a gym and naturally had a ton of conversations with members.

Some conversations were good.

Some conversations were bad.

Some conversations I’m not even sure you could call conversations since there was zero depth to them.

I mean honestly… no one cares about the weather.

Anyway…

One conversation in particular was with a member who brought up having trouble sleeping.

He was still able to get his workouts in, but sleep?

Maybe a handful of hours per night.

No bueno.

But then I asked him one simple question:

“When do you cut off caffeine?”

His reply?
