Manage your email stress

One study found that 1 in 3 office workers suffers from email stress. Making a decision the first time you open an email is crucial for good time management.

Delete: you can probably delete half the emails you get immediately.

Do: if the email is urgent or can be completed quickly.

Delegate: if the email can be better dealt with by someone else.

Defer: set aside time later to spend on emails that will take longer to deal with.

There is no greater waste of time than hand-filing emails into folders or labels. Just click archive or auto-filter.

You are not your email inbox. If you don’t have thousands of undealt-with emails, you’re emailing all day instead of getting real things done or you’re an alien. A few deeps breaths will lower your heart rate and allow you to refocus on what’s important.

May your days be less & less consumed by email, and more & more about what’s important to you.

Cheers!
