I hope I have the guts to follow up on this great initiative:
Email Debt Forgiveness Day: whittle down your inbox without the apologies (https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2016/apr/30/email-debt-forgiveness-day-unread-inbox-)
It sounds like a plan. :yes:
So did it work? I've read recently about using Google Inbox to get to inbox zero and I didn't think it possible but it worked. Archive or postpone emails and then inbox is zero. Either do the task required to archive the email, or if it's informational just archive it, if it's not needed just trash it and if you want to respond at a later date just postpone the email for a time you can handle it and it'll go away and who back up later. Love it!
I chickened out in the end. :(
