We've known for years that nicotine helps with attention. It has a strong affinity for the d2 receptors and the receptor sites are primarily located in the Prefrontal Cortex. The prefrontal cortex directs goal related activity and allows you to stop impulsive behavior which would distract you from your goal.

I use nicotine because it is a stimulant and perscription stimulants make me feel like death.
