Music
So yea, music is a massive topic when it comes to productivity and motivation... For now I have decided to collect all my notes and add them here, I may split these out if this note gets too big.
The main advantage to music IMO, is that It allows me to focus for much longer than I would be able to focus without music.

Variability
