What if you could upgrade your brain in 15 minutes a day? In Smarter Tomorrow, an MIT and Harvard-trained brain researcher turned Silicon Valley technologist shows you how.
You will end up better able to:
- Stay in control emotionally, even under pressure
- Pay better attention and think faster
- Learn faster and remember more
- Be more creative
To do this, you will learn:
- Which brain hacks work for you personally—and which ones don't
- Which brain hacks are research-based
- Which brain hacks are cost-effective and doable in 15 minutes a day
Best of all, you will learn a rigorous system to evaluate any brain hack. You will get access to 20 customizable self-experiments and a sample 12-week schedule.
While you're learning, you'll have fun. Smarter Tomorrow author Elizabeth R. Ricker guides you on a wild and edifying romp through the cutting-edge world of neuroscience and biohacking. You'll encounter Olympic athletes, a game show contestant, a memory marvel, a famous CEO, and scientists galore.
Join a quest for the Holy Grail within each of us: the optimized brain.
In Smarter Tomorrow, Ricker shares the spoils of her decade long adventure. After countless expert interviews, poring through hundreds of research studies from around the world, and testing dozens of tools on herself—including nicotine, video games, meditation, and even a little-known beverage from the Pacific islands—she explains how some experiments failed hilariously, while others transformed her cognition. She was able to sharpen her memory, increase her attention span, boost her mood, and clear her brain fog. By following Ricker's customizable system, you'll uncover which approaches work best to boost performance in your unique brain.
Join a growing, global movement of neurohackers revolutionizing their careers and relationships. Let Smarter Tomorrow change 15 minutes of your day, and it may just change the rest of your life.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Plenty of books dwell on the faults in our decision-making or offer advice on how to make better choices. The Elements of Choice goes one step further and explains how we can design better end-to-end decision-making processes. Going well beyond the familiar concepts of nudges and defaults, Eric J. Johnson offers a comprehensive, systematic guide to creating effective choice architectures, the environments in which decisions are made.

Story
What’s the most pressure you’ve ever been under? How did you react? What helped? What didn’t? Over the past five years, Dane Jensen has asked these questions of thousands of high performers - from Olympic gold medalists to Navy SEALs, politicians, executives, and busy parents. What has emerged from these conversations is that while everyone’s experiences under pressure are unique, pressure follows patterns and develops in predictable ways.

Story
Hot-shot lawyer McKenna Keaton finds herself in hot water with her own law firm when she’s (falsely!) accused of embezzlement. Placed on unpaid leave, she suddenly finds herself with the free time to return home and attend her youngest sister’s wedding activities. But it’s not all fun and games. Waiting back home is shy, nerdy Henry Blumenthal—McKenna’s high school rival for valedictorian who once took three hours to beat her at chess. Scratch that. He’s Hank Blume now, the famed documentarian, Durham, North Carolina’s, darling son.

What the critics say
"With a scientist's eye and an explorer's heart, Ricker sets out to optimize everything from cognition to creativity. If you're a brain-owner, you should be running experiments on yourself - and this is the guidebook you're going to want." (David Eagleman, author of Livewired and Incognito)
