Keep a reusable bottle on your desk. Sip when you think about it. If it’s hot, you’re active, or you ate a salty pretzel the size of your face, drink more. Use your thirst, your pee color, and common sense—not a rigid chart.
And remember: your body is 60% water, but it’s also 40% nonsense and bad decisions. Stay hydrated, laugh at the hype, and don’t let anyone guilt you into drowning yourself. Now go fill that bottle—your bathroom break awaits.
