I encountered the same problem and had a pretty unique solution: I made the constant flow of information the focus of my own stuff. Instead of trying to detach myself from it, I just embraced it. I've never been happier. I accepted that what I loved to do was gobble information and to gain more time what I really needed to do was kill my job. I started tuning all my information gathering and consuming towards balance sheets, SEC filings, hedge fund disclosures, quarterly earnings calls, investor conferences, etc. I started making money trading stocks on the side. I got comfortable and have replaced my salary for the last 3 years with trading profits. Maybe stock trading isn't for you, but you could just find a job or career where you feed off the constant flow of information. Make that your stuff.
