I LOVE COFFEE! But my coffee routine is full of daily micro-aggravations.
It involves making two pots, juggling 4 cups of hot coffee, and killing 5 minutes making an espresso.
…until this week.
I make two half-pots. The first one is “put hair on your chest” strong. That’s for me.
After I pour my 4 cups, I make another half pot at “brown water” strength. I combine the two to make a full “normal person” pot.
My 4 cups run out later in the morning, so I make espresso for a Red Eye with the WeWork coffee.
This week my 40oz S’well thermos eliminated 2 out of those 3 micro-aggravations.
My 40oz S’well eliminated the juggling of 4 cups AND I no longer need to make the red eye.
It’s saved me burnt fingers, spilled coffee, and at least 5 minutes a day.
What’s my point?
Focus on solutions to daily micro-aggravations.
