smart adjective
\ ˈsmärt

smarter; smartest
Definition of smart
1 : having or showing a high degree of mental ability : intelligent, bright
How can someone have a high degree of mental ability and also let themselves be subjugated to boredom - assuming boredom is an undesirable state?
Would we not measure someones intelligence by their ability to solve their problems?
Is boredom not another problem to solve?
Should we not measure someone's smartness by solving the fundamental issue: boredom, sadness, anger, etc?
Would not a smart person be someone who is stable, smiling, happy and engaged each day?
To label someone as smart and prone to boredom is comparable to labeling a fast car unreliable and prone to crashing: there's no point to such an existence, and its very existence is only indicative of limitations. That, though the fast car wants to be considered fast, it may be possible to reach 200mph, it cannot even handle the basic task of being a car. It rarely if ever reaches 200mph because the tires lock out.
Why even call it a car? It fails its basic reality. It doesn't deserve the label "fast" or "car".
It ceases to be an entity.
It may as well not exist.
