If it wasn’t for tea, the great British workforce would grind to a halt.

It’s funny how everyone has a ritual, a way to get them through the morning / day / night.
When I’m working on location, tea is invariably never far away. Whether I’ve just arrived at a client’s premises or I’m crawling out of my sleeping bag somewhere on a hillside, you can be sure that a brew will be in my hands pretty swiftly.
I’ve been reading quite a bit about habits and routines recently (tip: read The Power of Habit by Charles Duhigg – it’s great) and there’s a lot to be said for that first cuppa of the day as a trigger for productivity.
Personally, it gives me time to think. To plan. To reflect.
Are you a tea / coffee / ‘other’ drinker first thing in the morning? What are the main benefits for you? I’d be interested to hear your thoughts.
