If you are doing too many parallel things and context switching become a PITA, have an org document for each of your tasks, write your thought, experiments with code and output, your decisions, keep a references list with links and other important things.

Is also quite commnon to go back to some tasks to copy some code or pattern which you used, this will save you a lot of time.

If you have ADHD, us it to keep focus, you can easily manage tasks inside an org document, even go to the point of using just the console for work if too many things distract you.

Also check where you waste more time, optimisation should be focused, trying to increase your performance in some task which is not a bottleneck will cost you more time than if you just don't do anything.

Most of the time I asked myself "what is the next step?" and "what I was doing?", as well creating small pieces of code which require a of plumbing/debugging to later on fit into a bigger system. So org is the most productive thing for me.

But consider what you want to improve, before trying to improve any/everything.
