I’m not shy about the fact that I use smart drugs and have for years. Unlike some college studying tricks, there’s a good deal of evidence to back up the effects of Modafinil. I’m a fan of using food and supplements before drugs, but unlike some health experts, I’m not dogmatic about it. These aren’t unusual responses to Modafinil. Interesting.

I have been recomending dual N-back exercises The Bulletproof® Executive coaching program. I not only recommend it to my clients, but I have also been using myself (since 2009) and I have had excellent results boosting my IQ at least 18 points (I took standardized IQ tests before and after). From an efficiency perspective, that’s incredible. N-back exercise is simple – a grid of 9 squares is presented on screen like this: Every few seconds one of the 8 squares of the grid (center one isn’t used) lights up with a colored box and a letter is spoken aloud.
Here’s a graph of my N level for my first 20 sessions (total of just 6.5 hours of training): See how long I was stuck at N = 4? The best part about N-back training is that it’s permanent. I’ve used a Zeo to track my sleep patterns after N-back training to see what my brain was up to the following night. 1. 2.
