One of my favorite hacks is time blocking. I schedule specific blocks of time for different tasks throughout the day, so I know exactly when to focus on each activity.
I also set a timer at the start of each block to keep myself on track and avoid distractions.
How about you? What tips or habits help you stay productive when things get busy?

My number one tip - kill the distractions.
Busy day or not, you’re either focused or you’re failing. Stop checking your phone every 5 minutes, stop with the pointless meetings, and stop letting other people’s chaos dictate your day. Prioritize what moves the needle, and bulldoze through it.
Get disciplined about your time. If it's not pushing you toward your goal, it's noise.

Before starting work, I schedule tasks for the morning, afternoon, and evening.
Definitely time blocking and setting mini deadlines throughout the day. Grouping similar tasks together helps too. And when all else fails, a quick 5 min break to reset and refocus!
