Map out a routine that you can realistically be consistent with day in and day out, even on weekends.
When you allocate time for the things you have to do and the things you want to do, you get the best of both worlds.
Writing down your daily, weekly, and monthly commitments, appointments, projects, deadlines, and hangouts can keep yourself sane and organized.
It sounds contradictory to organizing your schedule as aforementioned, but you also need to be flexible. Leave room in your day or week to let things fall into place naturally.
Make time to track yourself to assess how your schedule is performing and how productive and happy you are.
