Just realized my morning pour-over ritual is saving me money vs. daily cafe trips, but my roommate thinks it wastes time. | Coffee Enthusiasts - Rigidtalk
Spot this pattern all the time with people. They brush off the small stuff, like saving a tiny bit or going to bed earlier, because it seems pointless. But those tiny choices build up like compound interest for your whole life. It's never one big thing that fixes everything, just a bunch of little things you actually stick with.
Got into the same rhythm with my french press. The extra twenty minutes in the morning is worth the quiet time, even if I set it up the night before to sleep a bit later.
