What is your approach to multitasking and juggling multiple projects or responsibilities at once?

Timeblocking. Allocate focused time for a task to avoid distractions and increase productivity.

I focus on one at a time.

Trying to focus on two things - interesting - needed to be done So always keep some interesting part

I focus on one at a time.

I think multi-tasking is very much difficult. And in reality, most of us can't do this. I always avoid this which helps to focus on a certain project.

Do-to lists with filters / try not to put too many different things on my plate

As a startup, I think we all have to multitask. To make sure I don't forget anything, I keep a to-do list with each item sorted by priority.

I don't multitask often. I prefer to give my full attention to one task at a time to ensure quality and thoroughness.

it's different for everyone. i like batching similar tasks, helps me focus. prioritizing's important too - what's urgent, what can wait. breaks matter a lot as well. what's your take? all about multitasking or more into focusing on one thing at a time?

The first thing to do is to classify agents into four maturity categories based on whether they have the necessary skills and a good enough attitude. Then, tasks are assigned based on the workload they represent for the relevant team, noting in an agenda what expectations were to be met and what was actually done at each time. Every so often, the entire human team must study that agenda and assess which expectations were too optimistic and which were too conservative. By focusing projects on tasks and their completion, it will not matter if several projects are undertaken at the same time.

I wish I could focus on one. Currently my approach is to separate planning and execution. First I build a list with all major tasks I need to do. Then when actually doing it I make an ordered, detailed TODO list, and then tell myself to just work on the top one. The logic is to not think anything about the "future" or "evaluation" when doing things, and allocate separate time to do it. I'm still training myself to adapt to this kind of working tempo.

There's one and only one approach, "Only Focus On One Project"!

It's about priorities, I believe. Great to make something, you want in a moment, but if there are things that you need to do — it's your priority. So shuffling between projects is OK if you make critical tasks first and not collect them, making easier things instead.

I am terrible at this, I could really use some tips!

I truly love multi tasking.... Allows me to always have a fresh perspective on anything new I'm starting. However, staying well organized is the key to ensure you can do it

using a combination of time blocking and task batching :)

My approach to multitasking involves prioritizing tasks, creating a schedule, and focusing on one task at a time to maintain quality and efficiency

Multitasking is unavoidable, especially if you are founding something. I've found myself being everything-all-in-one person recently ... engineer, market manager, CEO, PR etc. My brain was exploding from what i need to do. And multitasking was extremely stressful and doesn't return much value. Eventually i found a solution. Don't multi task :) Divide your tasks into very small once and do it one by one. Example: I need to code a feature, I need to prepare a Business card designs and I need to finish pitch deck. So I split Coding feature into 3 smaller ones; I split Pitch into slides (1 slide at a time) and i moved card designs to tomorrow:) As a result - my milestones are smaller and easier to achieve. So technically I'm single-tasking however I complete multiple different tasks in a very short period of time! My brain still explodes but at least I'm not messing around with multiple tasks at the very same time. Kinda works for me.

Very good questions, I guess a problem we all kinda struggle with, right? I personally try to block times in my google calendar by both projects and tasks. I know that "brain-heavy" tasks need to be done before the noon, as well as the tasks I do not enjoy the most. More creative tasks can be left for afternoon. It is crucial for me to take breaks, get a workout done and not fall into the distractive trap of my phone. Therefore I have a focus mode on my phone for basically the whole day. Only calls can go through it.
