Hi Prple!
I think we should use "in" in your example: I do my best in all my duties.
You can use "at" in a different construction, e.g. "I do my best at all times!"
You also use "at" when using the construction "to be (the) best at + noun": "I am the best at swimming" "My lecturer is best at explaining things"
Hope this helps a
