It helps to understand that you're doing multiple jobs. You're a developer, but also a marketer, a product manager, a designer, you run business operations, etc, etc. I've found it very helpful to not do more than one job at a time and to have breaks between switching roles.
In terms of managing development tasks, I use a kanban board in Notion. I'll put on my product manager hat, analyze my product, and define high level requirements for ideas. Then I'll switch to developer mode and work on a single idea until it's complete. I have a completely separate kanban board for marketing work.
I also don't do different roles on the same idea back to back because I have recency bias. So if product manager me comes up with an idea today, I won't even prioritize it until tomorrow.
