I'm reflecting on how I approach my handful of projects; currently I change focus each day on a 4 day cycle between 4 different projects. While it feels like I'm maintaining 'multiple irons in the fire', it also feels like I'm spinning my wheels to some degree.
Reading second hand accounts of the corporate world on HN, the industry standard seems to be focusing on one thing at a time with dedicated teams - but I'm unsure if that's due to it being the best way to get the most out of a handful of workers with varied aptitudes and motivation levels - or if it's the best way for human minds to focus productive attention, hands down.
I'd appreciate anyone's thoughts on this topic, especially in the context of self employment.
