I think the "ability to think clearly" is a bit too vague of a concept. * Is it really important that the whole process of thinking is "clear" or do you wish for a more structured outcome in the end? * Why do you assume that having a more "clear" process of thinking leads to better results? Based on the research I know in pedagogical psychology, "clear" thought processes are only a thing for persons of mid-seniority. Actual experts don't explicitely construct solutions to problems in their heads but rather recall/recompose them: They can just extrapolate a solution. But to add a caveat: Actually the peak performance of mid-seniors is sometimes better and one explanation is that they actually (need to) think about what they're doing. Experts get a bit more sloppy on single tasks but are more productive overall.
