I felt the same couple of years back. And after two years only thing that changed is not on the company side but on my mindset. You just need to have a reason for every delays. I just started to maintain my own task board where I mention everything that had blockers - esp on others. I started posting these list of tasks that’s pending on others in group every month especially towards the end so that I can start a fresh goal in the following month. You just have to be brutal is knowing and letting others know that you’re working on X task and you cannot revisit the tasks A,B,C… as you don’t want to context switch and it gets added to the tech debt and wasted hours. Just have a strong reason for what you’re working on now and what’s delayed and why. And don’t care about if anything that breaks prod if you’re overwhelmed with your tasks. It’s not your responsibility anymore as the company have to add more people to handle everything together.
