There is no one straight answer to the question, time management is always a good answer, re-organize your time to fit 9 tasks, delegation of activities is another answer, support tools to accelerate performance of tasks could also be an answer.

Go to the tasks that are implemented quickly and never take time, which does not take time and also fast implementation in order to save time for the ninth task

What I do in such cases once I realize that I'm running out of time: I prioritize my tasks and for the less important ones I choose to sacrifice quality or increase the probability of mistakes in order to complete all tasks...later & whenever I have the time luxury, I search for ways to organize these specific 9 tasks in a better way, so that at a hypothetical repeat of that situation time would be enough. My approach would be different only if I would judge that all 9 tasks are of high importance. In that case, I wouldn't sacrifice quality, I would prefer to miss a deadline for the less important task(s)...but then I might not even sleep until I found a way to never let it happen again...and there is one more case: the time provided is not objectively reasonable. In that case once I completed the ninth task by following one of my two approaches, I would deal with whatever caused that situation...
