Today starts the 15th annual Clean Out Your Inbox Week, official in Chases’ Calendar of Events. Your challenge is to have a cleansed inbox by the end of this week. (Yes you can do it!) What a great way to start 2022.
Today’s tip:
How to get your inbox to zero.
We all feel better when our inboxes have been “zeroed out.” Why is it that we have such a hard time getting it there? One of the reasons is that our mindset allows us to keep items in that inbox.
It is interesting to note that many people have a conscious or subconscious level that is acceptable to them, and they work toward it. For some people, it might be 100 items, for some people it might be 20 items, for some people their inboxes won’t ever be “allowed” to get over 250. If this describes you, your mindset towards your inbox could be keeping you from getting to zero.
Change your mindset today to “Severe Clear.” Don’t move on until the inbox is empty.
Oh, you don’t have to work all those items — you just need to file them somewhere to work later. That’s all included in our book and e-book, “Inbox Detox and The Habit of Email Excellence.”
