Email: Manage your inbox; don't let it control you.

Email: Manage your inbox; don’t let it control you.

Do:

    • Check your email at designated times, not constantly.
    • Use filters and labels to organize your inbox.
    • Archive or delete emails you don’t need.
    • Unsubscribe from unwanted newsletters and promotions.
    • Set up email templates for common responses.

Don’t:

    • Let your inbox become a never-ending to-do list.
    • Leave emails unread or unanswered for too long.
    • Get sucked into the vortex of endless email chains.
    • Neglect to clear out your spam folder regularly.

Takeaway: Email should be a tool, not a tyrant. Take control of your inbox, and reclaim your time and attention for more important things.
