This week I clean up my email Inbox. A lot of people never delete the email from their Inbox, they keep it there until it is months or years old and then they delete everything that is older than X months.
I'm not like that. I always delete what I don't want, what is not important or that doesn't require any action from my side, however, I keep all the emails that I need for reference, or need to read later or have to reply at some point.
That is why I was shocked this week when I saw I had 770 emails lingering on my Inbox waiting for my action. It took about 2 hours, but I went from 770 to about 24 and then to 14 emails.
Since I was on a clean up mood I did the same with my personal email account. It went from about 350 emails to 7.
I don't know when was the last time I had so few emails on my Inbox. It feels soooo good.
Take this extended weekend opportunity and do the same.
