My productivity tanked after swapping coffee for matcha for 2 weeks
Tbh I thought green tea powder would be a cleaner energy boost, but by day 3 I was dragging through edits and missing my usual 10 AM flow. I stuck it out thinking it'd level out, but I ended up 30% slower on my writing output by the end of the trial. Has anyone else tried switching up their caffeine source and totally regretted it?

Matcha's a different beast. Caffeine hits slower and the L-theanine can mellow you out too much for focused writing. Try adding a smaller coffee back in and using matcha as a secondary afternoon boost instead.

3 cups of matcha later and I'm writing poetry about my toaster.
