My colleagues know this habit of mine, that is before doing some really important job, I have to brush my teeth.
The thing is, I can concentrate more if my mouth feels clean. This habit started a few years ago, when I started saving for having my braces. You know the book 'The Secret', it was true, I started acting like I already had the braces e.g brushing my teeth after meals, and in a few months I actually had them, quicker than I thought I could do. And that habit stands strong even though the braces were off.
I think Meutya Hafid can relate to me. In her book '168 Hours Taken as A Hostage: Memoirs of a Journalist in Iraq', this reporter wrote that she needed to wash her face and brush her teeth before conveying a message in front of the camera.
I know someone who was in struggle for having nice breath all the time. He kept Listerine by his side. The problem is, long-time-usage of Listerine makes people have sore throats. Well, at least it does on me. And him. He coughed a lot. I told him to dump Listerine but he wouldn't listen to me. Like telling a middle-aged man to dump his hobby of inviting prostitutes over, really.
-_-
The recipe of fresh breath is easy, even though you don't have the luxury of time (and circumstances) to brush your teeth. Just use toothpaste like you use Listerine.
This, I haven't told him yet.
