Checking your phone as soon as you wake up

We currently live at a time when our smart phones have replaced our alarm clocks, our maps, calculators, cameras, torch lights, mirrors, wristwatches and much more. You can do almost anything on smart phones, including making money through trading apps. A few weeks ago, I noticed that I woke up very eager to check my stock investment that I had started trading a couple of months back. To make the process easier for me, I downloaded the trading app to my phone. The excitement of seeing my daily profit made me sleep with my phone next to me. Every day when I woke up, I had the habit of checking my trading app to see if I made any profit. On the other hand, I started to notice an intense moodiness whenever the stock trade had gone against me and I was at a loss. There was one day when I slept off at night after having recently entered a trade. I did not set a stop loss on the trade before sleep caught up with me. In the morning, when I woke up, that was the first thing that I remembered, and I quickly grabbed my phone to check the trading app. There was a statement released by the Indian president regarding the stock I had bought, which caused the stock to experience a massive dip. That dip caused me to lose all of my capital, because I did not set a stop loss.
That morning, as soon as I saw the loss, I was so sad that it affected the whole of my day. I like money, so anything that tampers with my money takes a huge toll on me (hahaha). That event made me push aside my other morning routines.
My challenge was checking my trading app as soon as I wake up. Another person might be checking social media, while others might be checking the news. Sometimes, when you pick up your phone, you may not have made the intention of feeding on negative information, but such information sometimes pops up as a notification. A headline can sometimes be so tempting that you find it hard to resist reading or watching.
These things in themselves are not bad; the reason for not making them the first thing you are feeding your mind with each day is to protect your mind from any negativity that might set your day on the wrong trajectory. The news and social media can be left to late afternoon, rather than dealing with them at the very start of the day. It is best to start in a positive way.

Drinking tea or coffee first thing in the morning

I cannot go a whole day without tea. This explains the motivation underlying m byy YouTube talk show called “Tea break with Nengi”. My friends know that I never run out of tea bags at home. Whenever I wake up, I turn on the kettle for a cup of tea. However, something told me I was doing something that was not right; I enjoyed it so much that I would ignore that inner voice. To make myself feel better and less guilty, I shifted my morning tea intake to decaffeinated tea bags (hahaha); this in itself is not the very best habit.
I had a college housemate who had a coffee machine that came on at a certain time in the morning, just after his alarm goes on. This means he literarily wakes up and goes straight to the kitchen for his piping hot coffee waiting for him.
Coffee and Tea are not in themselves bad, but they should not be heavily relied on to stay awake and start the day. Coffee makes your body dehydrated. It is a diuretic. What you want in the morning is to keep your body very hydrated. Water is recommended as better. Unlike tea and coffee, Water flushes toxins from your body. Coffee causes your body to produce more hydrochloric acid, because it is an acidic drink. It may not be completely ideal for anyone with health issue such as acid reflux.
Research shows that drinking caffeine too early in the morning makes you prone to more stressful feelings and fatigue, as it makes your body release stress hormones after the instant happy boost you feel when you drink it.
