🍁 This Cannabis Startup Pioneered “Rapid Onset” Gummies

Mood Gummies

Most people prefer to smoke cannabis but that isn’t an option if you’re at work or in public. 

That’s why we were so excited when we found out about Mood’s new Rapid Onset THC Gummies. They can take effect in as little as 5 minutes without the need for a lighter, lingering smells or any coughing. 

Nobody will ever know you’re enjoying some THC.

We recommend you try them out because they offer a 100% money-back guarantee. And for a limited time, you can receive 20% off with code FIRST20.

🛋️ Transform Your Home into a Productivity Powerhouse

Organized Workspace

Hey nomad fam! 👋

Ever felt like your work-from-home routine is more "work-from-bed" than productive? You're not alone. A recent Forbes article by Jack Kelly delves into crafting a work-from-home routine that actually works.

Kelly emphasizes the importance of setting clear boundaries to maintain a healthy work-life balance. He suggests designating a specific area in your home as your workspace, which helps your brain associate that space with productivity. This separation can prevent the blurring of lines between work and personal life.

Another key point is establishing a consistent schedule. Starting and ending your workday at the same time each day can help maintain a rhythm and prevent overworking. Kelly also recommends taking regular breaks to recharge and avoid burnout.

To minimize distractions, Kelly advises silencing your phone, closing unnecessary computer tabs, and keeping your workspace organized. He also suggests communicating your work hours to family or housemates to reduce interruptions.

Incorporating these strategies can transform your work-from-home experience from chaotic to productive. By setting clear boundaries, maintaining a consistent schedule, and minimizing distractions, you can create a routine that supports both your professional and personal well-being.
