Episode notes
Inbox Zero Myth
- Inbox Zero is a fallacy because email constantly arrives.
- Strive for it, but don't expect constant zero; it depends on your job and volume.
Prioritize Inboxes
- Define your primary inboxes; other 'inboxes' are secondary.
- Push less important items, like social media or recipes, to these primary ones when you have time.
High Email Volume
- Denise receives a high email volume, up to 200 daily, sometimes closer to 120.
- She uses filters and rules to manage this influx, prioritizing important emails.
