By defining the question better
Most
people waste time and processing speed trying to answer a question
when they're not sure of the question they're asking.
I
have a catchphrase that annoys everyone:
"When
you've adequately defined the problem, you will have arrived at the
solution"
Let's
take your question above. It lacks definition. So let's define it a
bit better
"Is
your cognitive processing speed the same under all conditions?"
I
can tell the answer to that question is no. There will be days and
times when you amaze yourself at the speed of your processing.
Athletes call this "The Zone". And there will be days when
tying your own shoelaces requires real effort.
So
your original question is better defined by saying
"Under
what conditions does my cognitive processing speed perform at its
best?"
Now
that's something that can be measured and studied.
So
you see how the slightest improvement in definition helps us speed
towards a solution that much faster
