Successfully managing productivity requires a structured approach to balancing maker and manager tasks. Initiate with dedicated maker time to develop projects while simultaneously maintaining current job responsibilities. Transition to a 50-50 split, allocating the first half of your day for creative work and the latter half for management tasks. Elevate further by designating entire days for maker activities, allowing for focused work without interruption from meetings. Communicate your availability clearly to others, setting expectations about response times during maker sessions. This proactive communication fosters understanding and mitigates frustration due to unmet expectations.
