When it comes to upgrading our brain power, too many of us think in terms of wholesale improvement. We want to increase our IQ or our attention and generally we seek to ‘level up’ as though we were a Pokemon or a Dragon Ball Z character.

“It… it’s over 9,000!”

With nootropics and brain training, it’s certainly possible to add a couple of IQ points for what that’s worth. And perhaps with enough brain training, we might be able to slightly increase our attention.
