Creative vs Focussed Implementation
It's early days for me with Focus, having taken it for two cycles of 5 days on, 2 days off and choosing to stay within a dose of 2 - 3 caps per day instead of the 5 capsule dose. Having taken Qualia Mind before for a longer period of time I can compare the two products and the differences I experience with each. Focus has quite a different effect to Mind. Mind gives me a more immediate and stronger sense of wellbeing, connectedness and faster processing around things I'm interested in doing or exploring. Some days I would find I'd almost be 'scattered' but not quite, I could dive deeper into things that fascinated me. Focus is more like turning on a steady revving engine in the background that is designed to 'get shit done' and not necessarily the things my creative quick start wants to get done but the things that 'need to be done' that I may have had resistance on thinking about/planning, starting or doing - Focus cuts through all of that, interesting to notice how it wipes out a lot of the automatic negative thinking around doing those tasks. Ok it doesn't give me the same elevated sense of wellbeing that Mind gives me but it's a steady state of really useful ordered and productive thinking, prioritising and action which is exactly what I need right now. Thanks guys for creating this and your other products, love your work. Focus for me is like the stoic mindset crossed with Jordan B Peterson, very useful. Mind for me is like 'let's get creative, get connected, get heart centred with some behind the scenes magic thrown in for good measure', perfect for stage, for dynamic communication and team based projects.

The 1st week, I've noticed a modest increase in my ability to focus. My energy levels have been good in the morning with a slight dip in the early afternoon. This is most likely due to the caffeine.

This stack is an overall good balance of stimulation and modulation. The Caffeine and Theobromine provide a nice surge of energy while the L-Theanine smkoths it out and the Bacopa and Alpha GPC with a nice dose of B12 help repair and grow neurotransmitters. All in all it my work productivity increased dramatically and my fatigue dropped, I would highly recommend it.
High gear, smooth ride.

I just received my bottle of Qualia Focus 3 days ago, and have tried it 3 times. I would like a bit more time before rendering a final assessment, but so far, I have found it to be effective in enhancing focus. I notice a slight stimulation effect, perhaps due to the presence of caffeine, but the cognitive enhancement goes beyond what I normally experience with caffeine. I tried it twice while working ( I am a software developer, which generally requires an ability to focus deeply over extended periods of time. And once, just after a morning aerobic workout and prior to an hour of yoga. I wanted to see if the product might help me keep my mind from wandering during the uyoga. I can't say that I noticed much difference, but would like to try this a few more times, as, from day to day, a number of differenct factors could be at play, such as how well I slept the previous night etc.
Quite promising so far
