The Inbox Zero System

About this ebook

Inbox zero is not about an empty inbox for its own sake. It is about having a trusted system so your email stops being a source of low grade anxiety and becomes a tool you actually control. This book gives you a clear, repeatable method for processing mail quickly and confidently, so nothing important slips through and nothing lingers to nag you.

You will learn to separate processing from doing, to make fast decisions with a handful of simple rules, and to set up folders and filters that do the sorting for you. The goal is not to spend more time on email, but far less, while feeling more on top of it than you ever have before.
