On match day, the player deliberately skips his morning coffee and waits until just before the game to have it, creating a window where he knows he can fall asleep after lunch. It's a tiny hack with outsized impact: by front-loading sleep rather than caffeine, he arrives at kickoff rested instead of wired and jittery. Small rituals like this separate pros who treat the hours before competition as a system to engineer, not just kill time.
