      Tricks on you… jobs these days pay so poorly that you have to pawn your current helmet just to keep working!

    I find the Forest app is very helpful to keep me focusing when I have a big project.

    You plant virtual trees, and once you plant X amount of trees an environmental group will plant a real tree somewhere.

    If you exit out of the app, your current tree dies & doesn’t go towards your ultimate count.

    For me that’s a great incentive to keep working…and it’s fun, too. You earn coins for each tree you plant and that enables you to buy different species of trees, bushes, or flowers.

      What concerns me about these projects is whether they’re planting the right kind of tree in the right place, or planting trees where grasslands should go.

    Cold take: you actually get the helmet. You’re not working so someone else can buy a helmet that you never even get to see.
