🚀Fasting & Focus: Why No Caffeine Might Make You More Productive

Hi friend,

Hope you’re doing well

I’ve also been publishing these reflections as videos for the last few days! If you’d like to watch today’s video instead of reading, click the video below or check my Youtube Channel for more. 🎥👇

Today marks the 5th day of Ramadan, and one of the biggest surprises I’ve noticed this year is how fasting is affecting my focus and attention—in a way I never expected.

Normally, I rely on my morning coffee to wake up, shake off sluggishness, and get into work mode. Skipping it used to feel impossible.

But during Ramadan, I don’t drink coffee in the morning or at suhoor. I thought this would wreck my focus…

Instead, the opposite happened. My focus is sharper, my attention span longer, and my mind clearer.

Maybe it’s because fasting stabilizes energy levels and reduces the highs and crashes caused by caffeine. Without relying on stimulants, the body adapts, leading to sharper mental clarity and increased productivity.

🚀 Fasting naturally enhances focus & productivity.

Without food or caffeine, your body shifts into a deep state of alertness. Science backs this up; fasting increases norepinephrine, a neurotransmitter that boosts focus and mental clarity.

Maybe this is why I’m finding more time to write daily, film videos, and move my business forward. Without distractions, my mind is locked in.

🔹 If you’re fasting, have you noticed the same?
🔹 If you’re not observing Ramadan, I challenge you to try fasting just for one day. 

Skip breakfast, work through your usual coffee time, and see how your brain responds.

I’d love to hear your thoughts; drop a comment and let me know if you try it!
