- Morning sunlight exposure (within 30-60 min of waking) sets your circadian rhythm and improves sleep that night
- Focus follows stress: brief stress (like cold or exercise) enhances learning by releasing neurochemicals

- Dopamine is about motivation, not reward—it drives you toward goals and is depleted by too-easy pleasures
- Caffeine should be delayed 90-120 minutes after waking to avoid afternoon crashes
