I'm surprised that you're commenting about the caffeine and not the modafinil!

Caffeine has lots of wonderful effects on the mind and the body. It was essential in helping me switch to an earlier routine: can't go to bed at 10pm if you're not tired because you woke up at noon; best way to be tired at 10pm is to get up at 6am; caffeine helped me get up at 6am.

Cycling your caffeine intake is a great way to still reap the benefits of caffeine without building up a tolerance.

I know nothing about modafinil.

It allows you to be productive even after not enough sleep. Unfortunately you can only keep this up for so long. In my case I now only use caffeine when I really need it. I'll gulp down three or four cups of coffee if I need to do all nighters. And because I have virtually no tolerance to it anymore the caffeine will work like a charm and I will not feel tired at all.

I've tried this. Doesn't work for me. Seems like my body built a tolerance to caffeine, and no amount of break from it (even a month) will reset that tolerance.

You probably need to avoid caffeine altogether. Might try theobromine from brewed roasted cacao.

Interesting, I'll look into that. Thanks
