Mine is to use an editorial calendar, divide the workload based on this calendar, and prioritize the ones that take more of my time, considering the dates.

I believe it is crucial to prioritize the tasks correctly. One has to know how many effort needed to accomplish a task, and how to optimize time and effort while setting the due dates.

@hilal_aydin time tracking for a while might work to see overall picture, maybe
Planning, planning, and planning! You can use project management tools to achieve this btw.
@dilan_aydin definitely
@dilan_aydin that's absolutely right.
I prioritize work in Jira and that helps me to complete work within deadline
@jerryton_surya An accurate tool choice helps a lot!
@jerryton_surya Cool, will try that.
I usually focus on one task rather than several during the day. That's why I keep working by dividing my tasks into certain days until the deadline. Of course, when the deadline is not close, I have a lot of flexibility to work, but that's our nature 🤷🏻♂️
@arda_finsmart Exactly, we just need to find our ways :))
@arda_finsmart That's a great peice of advice.
Map Your Day.
Build in Time for a Crisis.
Get the Worst Done First.
Avoid Multitasking.
@polina_nerova I agree with every point
I would recommend using tools like Notion, Trello, and Google Calendar. They help me to keep focused on the work, and reminds me what I need to do and when I need to do it.
@umutgunbak Yes they help a lot. I can add ClickUp and Oppflow to the list :)
@janset_angi Thanks! I'll also check those two :)
Launching soon!
creating a good planning system that suits me & using google calendar for reminders has been useful to me
@elif_sahinduran same here! works most of the time
Divide your work day by work relevance, meaning you start working on the more urgent tasks right away while you leave the things that have a later deadline for last
@medinaluis That's what I try to do as well :)
Use Pomodoro technique.
@software_guy I was using when I was studying and it was working for me, but never tried while working.
@janset_angi Then maybe its time to give it a try!
