Feeling frustrated with your inbox because of all the junk mail you have accumulated over the past year? Or several years? I have found that when my inbox is cleaned up, I am more productive and more consistent in checking and managing my inbox and my time! Over time, I have learned to quickly let go of emails that no longer have value and for the emails that do contain information of value, I want to be sure they are put somewhere I can refer back to it within the year. But sometimes tackling thousands of old emails cluttering your inbox can be time consuming and overwhelming, so I have come up with a quick solution to get through this.
From this point, you will only have the current year (or a year's worth) emails in your inbox. You will immediately feel relief because you are no longer looking at that large number of emails just sitting in your primary inbox!
What’s good about this step is that even the archived emails will be cleaned out by this step- leaving you with more of the relevant emails that you can review later and decide to keep or get rid of. That’s one less step you will have to take when you go back to review your archived emails. This will make a huge dent in your inbox cleanup!
The point is to be able to quickly respond to anything that is current so that potential opportunities are not missed! If you're really feeling a sense of momentum why not keep going? Here are a few extra tips!:
