Caffeine intoxication also known as caffeine jitters is a dangerous thing. “Caffeine overdose can result in a state of central nervous system over-stimulation called caffeine intoxication. The symptoms of caffeine intoxication are comparable to the symptoms of overdoses of other stimulants: they may include restlessness, fidgeting, anxiety, excitement, insomnia, flushing of the face, increased urination, gastrointestinal disturbance, muscle twitching, a rambling flow of thought and speech, irritability, irregular or rapid heart beat, and psychomotor agitation”.
If you are geek with caffeine jitters you will notice 1. lack of focus 2. fast typing with nearly zero percent accuracy. When you’re not peeing like your body hates water and wants nothing to do with it, a growing force will push you to answer all emails and tweets within a minute or two. Unfortunately your nervous system won’t play along and your typing skills will be equal to something like hyper active finger movements producing nothing but err.

Waking up in the morning is a difficult task for some people. The night owls know exactly what i mean. Unhappy and depressed friends understand too. No matter what the situation is, don’t make the mistake of spending few more minutes in bed. Try not to get another 5 more minutes of sleep. Wake up right away or sleep for another 5 hours. Don’t just steal those 5 minutes from something else.
If you manage to get out of bed do 10 push ups. Don’t pee, don’t brush your teeth, don’t drink coffee. Just do 10 push ups before anything else in the morning.
If you excused yourself for those 5 more minutes of sleep, try to make it through the day. Be miserable and cranky and wait till next morning to try the push ups treat.
If you still don’t get it, it’s simple. You need to stimulate your mind of doing something out of the ordinary using by shocking your body with push ups. Although your fitness will improve by those 10 morning push ups, the goal is mental.
Do the push ups or sleep for the next 5 hours. Just don’t do the extra 5 more minutes of sleep.
What distinguishes the new Intro free font from FontFabric is the strongly expressed geometric makeup and structure. The basic letters of the Alphabet like “A”, “O” and “H” are built or based on principles of simple geometric forms like triangles, circles and squares.
