So starts a recent article from the The Globe and Mail. The article entitled Beat e-chaos once and for all is part of a series on organizing your digital life.
We like the reference to the calculator that allows you to see calculate the value of these inefficient practices. Be warned - it adds up!
While this article tends to focus on good practice for filing and setting up automation to help you deal with volume, we think some of the best insights come in the comments section where people talk about the manner in which they work through their emails. The most important (in our opinion) being dealing with email in batches. It's the mental processing time to start working on emails that adds up during the day. Deal with that and you've gained yourself several sushi dinners! (see calculator reference above).
