It is hard being a creative writer. Coming up with new ideas every day is not a simple task. And to add to the troubles facing creatives is the fact that it does not pay immediately.
It takes a lot of time and patience for writers to actually start reaping the benefits of their creative works. It takes a lot of sacrifices to sit down and finish a piece of literature, be it a poem, a narrative, a short story or a novel.
Many writers do not sleep early. They spend much of their time staring at the blinking cursor on the screens of their computers thinking of what to write about.
Sometimes the ideas flood their brains that they end up writing the whole day and night. It is not a strange thing for a writer to skip meals. Most of the time they do not even realize that it is meal time and they need to take a break and have lunch or supper. They just write as meal times pass them by.
To beat the fatigue and boost their thinking, writers tend to consume a lot of coffee. The coffee drink has a lot of benefits to a writer as it helps boost the memory and energy to stay awake and alert. There are two types of coffee; Coffee Robusta and Coffee Arabica. Coffee Arabica has more caffeine concentration compared to Coffee Robusta. But both are good.
According to www.healthline.com, coffee can help people feel less tired and increase energy levels. Here is how it works.” Coffee contains a stimulant called caffeine, which is actually the most consumed psychoactive substance in the world.After you drink coffee, the caffeine is absorbed into the bloodstream.
From here, it travels to the brain. In the brain, caffeine blocks an inhibitory neurotransmitter called adenosine.When that happens, the amount of other neurotransmitters like norepinephrine and dopamine actually increases, leading to enhanced firing of neurons.
Many controlled trials in humans show that coffee improves various aspects of brain function. This includes memory, mood, vigilance, energy levels, reaction times and general cognitive function.
