Do you consume a lot of caffeine? Honestly curious. I find myself in the same state you report when I consume a lot (>2 cups) of strong coffee per day. New ideas spawn at a great rate and I feel frustrated that I can't pursue them. When I cut down my intake significantly my mind is more restful and I feel able to focus more deeply. This helps greatly with filtering ideas and choosing which to follow through on.

Also Aspartame. I know I have better focus without that junk in my system. Try it for 30 or 40 days and see.
