Inbox Zero – no longer a dream for me
by Quadrant IV
Yesterday I did something I’d been meaning to do for a very long time. I sat down at my computer with a cup of tea and slowly worked through thousands of emails.
I’d be loathe to go through my emails of late, as the document management system we use at work is labourous when saving emails and it can sometimes be difficult to know when a particular conversation is completed and the thread can be saved. But yesterday I was sick of seeing so many emails in my inbox and not knowing what I had yet to do so I just worked my way through.
I now have no emails in my inbox; 7 in my ‘to be done’ folder and about 12 in my ‘waiting on’ folder.
Now feeling very pleased with myself.
