Big one for me was to avoid multitasking - it was never as efficient as I thought it would be

The best advice I've received is to use the Eisenhower Matrix to prioritize tasks. When time is limited, I focus first on tasks that are both high-impact and quick to complete. After that, I tackle high-impact tasks that take more time.
I also think of it like solving a Knapsack problem: given a set of tasks with varying importance and time requirements, I prioritize those that will give me the most value within the time I have available.

I've received some fantastic advice on time management, and the most effective tip has been to leverage time boxing techniques. Essentially, you break your day into a series of hours, such as from 5 AM to 8 PM, or however long your workday is. Then, either on a piece of paper or using a digital tool, map out exactly what you want to accomplish in each of these hours. It's truly a game changer for boosting productivity and ensuring you get things done.
