One Project Or Many?

When writing a novella, short story or even a fully fledged novel, what is your approach? Do you centre your focus onto the one sole project do you tend to have many different projects going on at any one time?

Personally, due to my limited attention span, I have various projects going on at any one time. I feel this may be a bad thing. Yes, I get to delve into different genres, different ideas and create my own stories individually, but where is my focus?

Focus is a primary factor when writing and having the ability to commit yourself to an idea, a plot or a scene is the foundation for your entire project. Although, having many projects at any one time may also bring a wealth of new ideas which you could 'mix and match' between your works.

I guess creativity and how we tackle this is a personal preference and everybody works in their own way. So what is it.. one project or many?
