I handle hundreds of daily emails efficiently through 10 simple email rules that help keep my inbox empty and my mind clear. My system includes structured filing, scheduled check-ins, and smart communication practices that transform email from a stressor into a manageable tool.
I spent time redefining email processing in my complex email system by stripping away 75+ filters and multiple account forwards. Now I use a streamlined process with just a few action labels, processing directly from my inbox twice daily. This has transformed email from a source of stress to something I confidently control.
I share practical strategies for managing email spam, including using different email addresses for different purposes and being careful about who gets my main address. I explain how to protect your inbox from unwanted emails and maintain control over your email flow.
I share my method for achieving inbox zero, which focuses on minimizing time spent processing emails rather than having an empty inbox. My system involves immediately taking action on emails through task delegation, filing important information, and deleting unnecessary messages. I process emails twice daily, keeping my workflow efficient and organized.
I tackle my email overload by moving everything into a “backlog” folder, setting up filters, and creating processing folders like “Respond” and “Task.” Using timers to sort emails helps me stay organized and focused.
