Navigating Email Influx and Value Discrepancies

The influx of emails has significantly increased over the years, leading to a vast difference in value between the most and least valuable emails received daily. This variance in email importance is akin to the trend seen in physical mail, with a majority of messages being of low value but interspersed with crucial ones. To manage this email overload effectively, one should dedicate full attention to the task of responding to emails instead of engaging in superficial activities like checking or archiving.
