Tonight I managed to achieve something I thought impossible: having an inbox count of 0.
I watched a talk my Merlin Mann on the "Inbox Zero" technique of dealing with email, and implemented it tonight. Successfully!
Any AIESEC member knows how much emails they receive per day. Any AIESEC team leader (or above) also knows how much MORE they receive per day than the average member. That's why it's such an achievement for me to have nothing in the inbox, nothing to respond to and nothing to take action on.
There's a certain satisfaction in knowing that there are no emails begging for my attention as I head to sleep. Anything I find in there tomorrow is brand new, and I'll know exactly how many emails I'll have to deal with, so I can get on with more important activities, like work!
