Why should you? Weblog Lifehack tells die-hard coffee addicts that it&#39;s just fine to stay addicted. After all, you got hooked on coffee because you wanted increased mental performance. Drinking coffee improves your concentration, alertness and staves off a tired mind. For me, work comes to a halt when I&#39;m missing any of the above, especially concentration or alertness. Ten or twenty minutes after a cup of coffee, I can be back to work for a few more hours. Similarly, the article argues that coffee improves your short-term memory, helps you socialize, and also apparently reduces disease. Why haven&#39;t you kicked the habit?
