Millions of people around the world say the same thing every morning: "Don't talk to me until I've had my coffee." At first glance, it may sound like a joke.

For many people, it has become a psychological signal that tells the brain it is time to wake up, focus and engage with the world. Several psychological theories help explain why this habit becomes so deeply rooted.
