I actual have two pairs to better compartmentalize.
Open back headset with mic for meetings/calls.
Noise cancelling audiophile headphones for when I am doing the 'serious' work.
I actualy prefer to toggle between them because it acts as a mental prompt of the work setting for me.
Whenever I put the NC cans on in my head I just switch to hyper focus automatically.
- piyh 4y agoCan you not use pass through mode on the noise cancelling ones?
- DoingIsLearning 4y agoOf course I can but I am purposefully reserving the snug closed back headphones exclusively for my focus/deep work. The point is to preserve the purity of the 'environmental cue' so that cups on + cup of cofee almost immediately transitions me into 'flow' mode. You can look it up there is a lot of cognitive research on environmental cues and their role on focus and memory retrieval.
