Most of my experience is with the mj of 40 plus years ago including what we called Iowa ditch weed because it grew in ditches.
I do not have much experience with the modern more potent stuff. I find your and Rick's comments interesting. I do know several regular users and enthusiasts. They say that not only does it give them brilliant ideas and incredible insights, it motivates them to accomplish much during a day. IE, makes them MORE productive.
Funny you should mention the brilliant ideas and insights while on weed, I always smoked it right before taking a shower and going to bed. While in the shower I would think of some great ideas and credited the pot for them. Unfortunately by morning I either forgot them or realized the ideas were not so great or realistic. If I still had my artistic talent as a youth, I think smoking pot would possibly help with my creativity and originality. Or maybe just in my own mind.
As of today, I no longer have the slightest desire to use again and I've completed two big home projects I've put off for a decade. The wife is happy.
