How do you generalists out there divide your time?

Although there's a lot to be said for specialization - of skills, careers, and interests - the historical figures I've always found most inspiring were generalists (polymaths, at the extreme). There's some debate around the topic, but I, and probably others, would love to hear from people who manage several different interests.

I'm not a real hacker, or programmer, or anything really, yet. But I've always thought of myself as more of a generalist than a specialist. Maybe that's why I'm not (or don't feel like) a "real" anything so far.

If anyone has any concrete experiences to share on this, I'm sure it'd be greatly appreciated. (E.g., to-do lists, schedules, mind maps, other organizational tools, etc.; but also ways of thinking and organizing your thoughts)
