Take a morning walk outside before you get into heavy work. Helps clear the mind and get some exposure to fresh air and daylight.
Also, these days I try to drink matcha tea instead of coffee to keep more consistent energy levels :).

Black coffee and a fresh weekly to-do list.
Intermittent fasting, no question! :) Clear mind, lots of energy, no brain fog + autophagy is working in the background. The only trick is to drink a lot of water...
I start my Monday with a weekly catchup with all the teams across all departments.

Get some movement, write a to-do list and wait for 1-1.5 hrs before I drink coffee to avoid caffeine crash.

Coffee for sure. At work we start our week with tracking KPIs and planning our sprint. It helps align our team and also is a start of week ritual that helps set the mood and clear up any doubts so we can go into the week motivated. :)
Unpopular opinion: I actually hate coffee (it is what it is...). In my case 15 minutes of swimming, pilates or some stretching and we start with the work day!

How do you beat brain fog? I wake up at 5 am, drink a cup of water, wait 1 hour and then have my first coffee. I works fine, water helps my brain to start working in the mornings

Coffee -> Overthink -> Write todo -> Coffee -> forget the todo list -> Coffee -> Start working on the things that I thought to do yesterday.

My day starts with a big glass of water and followed by a nice cup of coffee! A good 30min catch up with my cofounders and then its 90mins of focus time with a 15 min reward of whatever thing I choose to do.

Grinding fresh coffee and making a good cup of it.. while outlining the tasks of the day. But i never start work immediately! First i take around 1 hour playing any PC or mobile game that stimulates my brain .. mostly games with base building or problem solving .. i find that really helpful to get focused :)
