More Complexity, Not Less?

What if your inability to focus on simple tasks isn't a brain defect, but a high-speed engine physically overheating because it’s being forced to idle? What if when your internal processing speed is far higher than the task in front of you, that unused energy has nowhere to go and reflects back into your nervous system causing brain fog or physical restlessness. If this is true then you don't actually need tasks to be easier, you need them to be complex enough to consume your excess bandwidth. Have you ever noticed that you can suddenly focus on a boring chore only if you add an extra layer of difficulty, like listening to a complex podcast or gamifying the process, and does that extra weight actually make your brain feel more stable?
