Managing email

Read, file. Read, delete. Read, delete. Delete. Delete.

Email is a part of life, and it’s plentiful. So much so that we have to have strategies to manage it.

I’ve lately considered the problem of processing my email versus the potential alternatives.

How often do I read something and sit with it? Let it soak in? Meditate over it?

I follow a few insightful blogs. Do I read those words and let them marinate, or do I scan and file?

Every day, we will encounter wisdom. If we’re not paying attention, it might pass us by ... just like the rest of the noise we’ve filed away.
