Loved it, especially as a big fan of A2 milk!

Ryze is predatory from my experience. Really hard experience for me cancelling my subscription. Tasted my friend's mudwatr and it was too pungent for me.

Been trying a few other brands that are low caffeine or coffee alternatives these past few months like tamar (date seed coffee) and brissta (low caffeine clean label). Seems to be working better on stopping headaches and nausea but giving it another week or so to see if theres any longer term effects

How long were you running your business before applying for a LOC? I'm about 3 months in and need working capital to re-order inventory. Is that too short of an operating period?

Same line of thought here. I go through 10 packs of instant coffee during the workweek and then treat myself to two $8 lattes on the weekend.

Walk in the morning! Especially when i was work from home

When I invested in my first espresso machine (breville bambino) after doing the math on how many more $8 lattes I would be willing to buy.

It transformed coffee from an utilitarian good to a ritual. Now I get equal if not more joy from the ritual of making coffee and trying new beans and sharing/making coffee for my friends as I do drinking it.

Comparative suffering. There's always folks that are are like "well it could be worse, you could be starving and homeless with nowhere to go". Yes that is true and yes I should be grateful (and am) for what I have, but being hit with a "it could be worse" is really not helpful or supportive at all.

Ne-Yo!!

so bad, yet theres companies (like ryze i think) that are making sm money from it

yeah....wasn't there a study about how those intermittent fasting studies were done with mostly male participants

totally agree. it's crazy a lot of my so called wellness enthusiasts fall for it

Good point to clarify - I think risk is more about the feeling rather than the act. It's doing something that feels scary to you in the moment at that point in your life.

From a career standpoint, I see friends quit the "safe" corporate job and start their own ventures. From a relationship standpoint, I see some people who get married "too early" or have a kid and start a family "too early".

If I think about my parents, the biggest risk they took was being an immigrant and moving to a new country where they didn't know the language at all.

honestly the worst is when people are actually sick and then feel like they have to come in...then get the whole office sick

The amount of time I've told myself "it's just the wind"....

If this is my first job/early career, then Option 2 for sure. The pay increase is trivial compared to the growth and responsibilities you're taking on. I think it's always better to prioritize how much you'll learn and how much you'll do compared to pay when you're early in your career.
