How do you all combat cognitive overload when everything on your plate is a top priority? I have 84 tabs open across three screens with everything from Google Analytics dashboards to competitive ad libraries and half-written press releases. My brain is fried. Marketing requires us to switch between creative, analytical, and administrative brains every single hour, and I think my processor is officially broken.
