To effectively manage multiple projects, I prioritize based on deadlines and impact. I begin by outlining each task and its requirements, assessing which tasks need immediate attention and which can be scheduled for later. Using digital tools like calendars or project management software can help keep everything organized and ensure nothing is overlooked.

Consistency and responding promptly to comments also build community and interaction.
