Drinking coffee is a very common ritual at work and synonymous with a break. Many morning meetings do not go by without a cup of coffee, not even business meetings.

As they have shown research findings has morning break far more impact on your productivity than a mid-afternoon break. This was determined on the basis of 96 employees and when they take a break (a break was defined as any period during working hours when employees did not have to work). Early break improves concentration and motivation, while breaks later in the day did not prove to be as effective. The later it was, the less effect it had. The reason lies in the fact that we have the most energy, motivation and concentration right in the morning and the faster we restore it, the longer we keep them at a high level. And if your boss questions your work ethic, tell him it's all in the name of your productivity.
