zero inbox

let the smart part of your brain help the dump part.

process

don't check for email, process it, that is:

• read it
• create an action for it
• linger in my inbox is no action
• do not use inbox as todo list

possible actions

actions provided by speaker, find your own action that work for you.

• delete or archive
• delegate, maybe give yourself a reminder for follow-ups, maybe a context "waiting on"
• respond, keep it moving
• defer (later), that's tricky, maybe a context/folder "to respond"
• do it now, maybe put on calendar
