I had trouble keeping focus on one project, because I feared missing out on the other things I wanted to do. In the end I not only overworked myself but in retrospect had no long lasting contributions I would still feel proud of. For me it worked to reduce the amount of projects I'm involved with and then make big and useful progress. And to guard some time off to just do nothing (which in fact is time for the brain to reflect and should be taken very seriously regarding mental health).
