Sure, I can help you organize that. With 12 tasks and 4 meetings, you'll want to figure out how much time the meetings take and what time slots you have available. You should probably prioritize which tasks are most urgent or important and fit those into the time you have left. Some tasks might take longer than others, so you'll want to group related work together to minimize context switching. You might want to schedule deep work in the morning if that's when you're most focused, and leave easier tasks or admin work for later in the day. Do you know how long your meetings are? And which tasks are highest priority? That would help me figure out the best schedule.
