Working in MS office - background music for copy pasting without frustration

The day begins with Excel tables and some powerpoint boring stuff.
To speed it all up i listened to this track

It is vastly monotonous and I could slip into a robot mode to speed this things up
Now I will try this one

Concerta day 8 - last daily update

Took the 2 36 mg pills again this morning.
Everything is working as it should.

Seems that the effect is stable and there are no noticeably different experiences for the past few days.

This means that there is no longer need to document the experience daily.

I'm productive and happy now. Let's hope I can keep it this way for years to come :)

Concerta day 7 - definately working

Took the 2 36 mg pills at 9:50 AM and drove to work.
I like thinking in depth while I drive. It makes me feel good and sometimes I come to good useful conclusions.
Yesterday I drove when Concerta already kicked in. I kept my line of thought and managed to process the inner monologue like a champ.
Today I drove before it worked

Listening at work an on a way to work - from calm to upbeat + sudden headphone testing

A colleague of mine brought his Bludio Tornado headphones to compare with my JVC XX.
Both headphones are fairly similar in specs.
Started with Money for nothing - My headphones practically lost, the Bluedio were leveled and bassy while the sound on JVC was highly dynamic but weak.

Here is the Dire Straights track, we used the very beginning of the song for comparison

Concerta day 5&6 - new week new expectations

Yesterday I took two pills of Concerta 36 mg while working from home with a sick child watching cartoons all day few meters away from me.
I have to say this was not hyper productive but I said to myself before taking the meds that this is going to be a part of today and I should not expect it to be perfect.
Basically I created a mental offset and maintained it.

Tracks to listen to at work - 2017 on a right foot

The day started with a brilliant performance of Pink Floyd by a street musician

End of the day - finally I can sit, work and listen to something
This Hand Drum Downtempo EDM is fairly nice, but I might have to switch to something else if the sound of hand drum will stand out and make me notice the high pitch sounds while I work

Casual short music clips today

Cannot work to music from home
but was able to get few good clips a close listen

here is a good Jazz improv

This is also a nice clip released pre-new year by a great youtuber
Nice and calm

No Ritalin weekend summary

Overall of 3 weekend days the first and the last one were without meds and the one in the middle I had a 40MG of ritalin LA to do some productive last minute work.

This was a good weekend overall, no moody outbreaks at all. There was only tiredness but I can attribute this to an overall sleepless week.

The other part that wasn't there is the cravings for meds like I had last week. 60 mg of Ritalin made me miss the productivity feeling and somehow sad that it's over. I didn't like this because it made me feel dependent and worried that I might develop an addiction.

So this time it worked out much better. Lets see what the week bring us

Ritalin weekend - one off productivity on demand

Over the 3 day weekend I took 1 pull of Ritalin 40 LA in order to do some last minute pre new years eve tasks like cleaning and sewing 2 costumes for my girls (An Elza and Anna dresses)

I didn't feel it kick in but I was productive enough to complete all the tasks. I know that the med worked because I couldn't fall a sleep at noon

Seems that it was a good decision because I had no rebound at the evening but it wasn't powerful enough to switch me to the full focus mode
