It means because the task is so difficult and requires a lot of concentration, you cannot do it for a long time.

Limits - reduces or lessens. The effort of thinking/concentrating about 2 things slows you down.

There are two tasks that require so much concentration that it is impossible to do them for a long time. "Limit" is a verb here, meaning "to set an upper boundary." I think it may correspond to a Chinese word I came across yesterday: 限制

It is hard for me to understand what this sentence means. There is nothing special about the meaning of the verb "limit" in this sentence. Maybe more context will help
