    Avoiding burnout while managing multiple cases and deadlines requires strategic organization and self-care. I prioritize tasks using a structured system, such as deadlines, urgency, and complexity, to ensure efficient time management. Delegation and collaboration play a key role—I seek support when needed and streamline workflows to prevent unnecessary stress. Setting boundaries, such as designated work hours and scheduled breaks, helps maintain mental clarity and productivity. Additionally, I incorporate stress-relief activities like exercise, mindfulness, or short walks to stay focused and energized. By maintaining a balance between efficiency and well-being, I ensure timely reviews without compromising quality.

    At times the scenario looks chaotic from the top view. At times you find there are multiple cases and all of them needs attention. You can take the following steps: 1. Rank the cases on priority matrix, 2. Segregate in good to have vs must have, quicker to complete 3. Break the cases into tasks and design timeframe for tasks instead of cases 4. Use of tools is very handy for better time management 5. Delegate whenever possible

    Boundaries boundaries boundaries! Block off administration time if you need it. And take breaks as you're able. It's okay to take your time, that often makes the finished product better anyways :)

    I most often use ways to shift my attention. Small exercises to engage different areas of the brain, rhythmic movements, giving myself a break from the goal-oriented mindset, and simply doing activities for the sake of doing them. Breathing exercises help a lot.

    Avoiding burnout while managing multiple cases requires prioritization, efficiency, and self-care. Use time-blocking to allocate focused review periods and set realistic deadlines. Leverage checklists and automation tools to streamline repetitive tasks. Communicate clear boundaries to prevent overcommitment and allow recovery time. Regularly reassess workloads, delegate when possible, and maintain healthy routines—nutrition, sleep, and short breaks fuel productivity. Sustainable success comes from balance, not just hustle

    I always pace myself and handle deadlines and my competing tasks and prioritize what is needed at the time in comparison to the rest. For example I make a list and plan on a specific calendar and tool to make sure I meet all my deadlines. I closely follow my calendar and list of assignments that are due on a daily and weekly basis. It is very useful and helpful to make notes and keep a journal in a software such as open notes.

    I prioritize my mental well-being by setting clear boundaries and managing my time effectively. I break tasks into manageable chunks, take short mental breaks, and ensure I disconnect when needed. Staying organized helps me meet deadlines without feeling overwhelmed. Most importantly, I remind myself that productivity isn’t just about working harder it’s about working smarter while taking care of myself.
