Readiness is mostly built the night before, by a version of you who will not be there to enjoy it. The bag by the door. The clothes out. The decision already made about what happens first.
Morning-you is not a strategist. Morning-you is a person hunting for the path of least resistance and will take whatever has been left out on the counter.
So be generous to him. Leave something easy and something good — the kit, the coffee ground, a note about what actually matters today. Seizing anything is far more about the arrangement than the appetite.
