You are in control of your life. You are where you are because of the choices you have made; and are making.
Identify your challenges areas and take positive control of your day.
What stops your productivity? Is it you? Is it outside influences? Is it unexpected events? Is it other people wanting a little piece of your expertise? is it you not saying "No" - only you know how full your plate is when someone makes a request of you!!
When you can honestly answer these questions and see why - then, you can make effective changes to the betterment of everyone and the projects you are handling.
To help you further analyze: Do you feel swamped? Papers everywhere? You can't find anything? Computer files askew? Are you late for appointments? In Box FULL? Find yourself with conflicting deadlines? Get distracted easily - thus, you have several tasks going at once? Unable to distinguish the true priorities?
We are all afflicted at one time or another by procrastination; bad planning or no planning; and just being disorganized. Get moving ... 1 task, step at a time.
There are so many tools that can help you but you must be willing to take the time to find what works for YOU. Maybe you will have to tweak the tool or process for you; but, it will be well worth it. You must persevere to find your lane and be comfortable with what you can accomplish.
