Time-box ruthlessly to handle multiple roles Gokul Rajaram: "It's really time boxing and knowing. I also do two hours each on both Saturday and Sunday so that I can do four meetings each." When managing a full-time job alongside board seats, investing, or other commitments, assign specific time blocks to specific activities. Protect those blocks.

Write everything down to free your mind Maya Prohovnik: "I write everything down because I remember things best when they're written down and then I obsessively put things on my to-do list." Capture tasks and thoughts externally to reduce cognitive load. Your brain is for processing, not storage. An externalized system creates mental clarity.
