Consistent users that are successful and hardworking are not usually also extremely heavy users. When I picture a heavy user I picture someone who gets high all

  > When I picture a heavy user I picture someone who gets high all day, every day. that's what I think of as well. however, many people will interpret "heavy user" as meaning like, someone who smokes a joint with any regularity at all. once a week might count as a heavy user by some definitions. the disagreement on what counts as heavy use is really the problem here. what you're describing is someone who is basically high all the time. very little disagreement that being high on cannabis profoundly effects your concentration and memory while you're high. a lot of controversy and ambiguity about what happens the day after.

  If you have to "picture a heavy user" that implies you are using your imagination. That implies you don't know any. I personally know many daily, heavy users that are very successful, research scientists, 3D developers, media production digital artists, producers, and even studio heads. The idea that cannabis makes people passive is simply wrong. The idea that it impacts creativity or drive also simply wrong. If you don't have examples of successful daily pot users, those around you either hide it from you, or your circles do not have any. I work in technology's creative industries, and I have examples all around me.
