Nootropic Brain Drugs Rise in Popularity for Today’s Cutthroat Corporate Climbers
From the article:
Andrew started his college graduation day at 6 a.m. with a wakefulness agent called modafinil, sometimes known as Provigil—it was the first time he remembers nootropic brain drugs having such a startling effect. He was juggling family and celebrations along with two ceremonies, engineering in the morning and economics in the afternoon, with a band competition in between, which he won. For 22 waking hours he was happy, alert, firing on all cylinders, oblivious to any fatigue.
This is a pretty interesting article. Somehow though…I don’t think it’s healthy to push your body so hard and not get enough sleep.
