I'm the exact opposite- I can't work and listen to music as it distracts me too much.

(Spicy take inbound) People listen to music too much. Now before you burn me at the stake, listening to music is a dopaminergic activity. Meaning it causes your brain to release dopamine. You get acclimated to these activities and your perceived response lessens. That's why when you go a day or two without music, it hits harder (at least that's my experience).

As a married guy with young kids, i don't get much time to listen. So i take advantage every chance i get. It'll usually be during chores like washing dishes or doing laundry. Like this past weekend, i spent about 2 hours cleaning the interiors of our cars. So i took advantage and popped some IEMs with BT. It was so nice. Besides the chores, I'll try to get a little while in bed before falling asleep.
