Amid a multitude of projects, no plan is devised.

Too many projects produce no plan at all, only a rotation of half-started things and the feeling of being busy. Every additional commitment takes a share of the attention that planning requires, and past a certain point there is nothing left over to think with. The activity conceals the absence of direction.

List everything you currently have running and be honest about how many are actually moving. Choose two to carry properly and put the rest somewhere they can wait without nagging you. The relief is usually immediate, and the progress follows.
