Time management, mental and physical energy management, planning and organizing are very underrated skills in tech. No matter how clever you are if you don't have the above, you are going to hit the ceiling fast in a demanding environment.
The dreaded word! Processes and systems, better figure out systems and processes that work for you fast.
You must figure out what works for you, here's a few for me.
I use a trello board to manage home tasks and personal tasks.
I schedule things I need to do in my calendar.
I use checklist to keep track of things I need to do.
I even schedule fun activities so I don't burn out.
When I can tell I'm running low on sleep, I schedule sleep alarms to remind me to go to bed.
To dive deep into something when you don't have the time is tough, but you can do so by scheduling smaller times and keep detailed notes which you can reference to remember what you have done and where you were.
