I mean, really these are all great tools for anyone doing any kind of fabrication work. I gotta get one of the magnetic sewing lights. It turns out I currently SUCK at grinding blades but I really like making hammers. Guess which one happens in my shop now. Everything listed is just as great for that. I use the nicest LG Tones retractable earbuds I can get for the sound isolation with music, been doing that for a good 7 or 8 years now. One thing that bears mentioning is investing in a powered respirator. They can be had for about 400 and make a MASSIVE difference in your quality of life on the grinders.
They work wonders. You get a full face shield and a constant supply of filtered air pushed in there with you. You get to breathe as easily as if you weren't wearing any PPE.

Thanks for the earbud recommendation. I haven’t used a powered respirator. But, they do seem like the way to go for most people.
