The CK Daily – Inbox Zero
Happy Friday, folks! Does this icon energize you or leave you feeling stressed?
The email icon doesn’t bother me; the red dot showing HOW MANY emails are unread gives me stress! So much so that I turned off the notification badge on my phone for most apps a couple of years ago. This simple change relieved a lot of stress!
I recently read that we hold an average of 200 emails in our inbox, receive 120 new emails daily, and only respond to 25% of the emails we get daily! I set a goal this week to get to Inbox Zero. Here is a great article covering the details of Inbox Zero. My favorite line from the report is, “Stop treating every email like a Christmas present that must be savored.”
I am down to 19 emails in my inbox this morning, so I have yet to reach Inbox Zero. I’m confident I can get there by the end of the day!
What are your favorite email management practices?
Have a great weekend!
Chris

When it comes to computer systems and servers, you have a lot of data to manage. It’s normal to want robust backups so that you never lose important information. At the same time, backups are costly, and they can slow down server systems.
In order to find the best options for various goals, you can manage storage disks in a number of different ways, and one of the most trusted and popular options is to implement RAID.
