You've got to develop tunnel vision. I personally don't care about feeling unhelpful, one, because I'm not, two, because spending an inordinate amount of my time on other peoples' work takes me away from mine. That means my work is going to suffer, which puts my job at risk. I'm not doing that for anyone. I'm always willing to help out when I can, but if I can't, I have no problem saying it. You shouldn't either.

Thanks! I am going to work on that tunnel vision.
Don't feel bad about ignoring messages, as long as you're only delaying them. You have to spend time on various tasks, and some of them have to be done with focus. Spending time on the pipeline can pay dividends, so attending to that is one of the most important things you can be doing with your time. Focus, and then return messages.
