As someone that has always found many things interesting, boiling it down to only a few things is very hard. Over the past year I've been slowly doing the same. I'm down to spending time with my family, web dev, marketing, and gaming. Choosing between web dev and marketing will be one of the hardest choices I make yet.

I do not practice what I preach as effectively as I would want to but the best thing to do is to run them in sprints. In other words, a week worth of coding is complimented by a week of marketing regardless whether you employ people to do work for you or not. The same applies for life in general. You need to mix and match but also not to do too many things at the same time.

Some days you will finish your tasks sooner than you expect. Do not bother starting anything else cuz you will drift into something and then realise that you have almost burned out. Don't do it! Instead let boredom grow on you for a little bit. Getting bored is good for you.
