Emails are evil.
There, I’ve said it. I am officially a weirdo.
I spend a lot of time in other areas on e-mails so I will make this brief.
Emails destroy people’s productivity.
If there was ever a technology that has advanced as well as damned us, emails are it. The average person checks their emails 20 - 50 times or more each day.
That’s insanity.
Do you know what is worse than checking your emails 3 or more times a day? It’s thinking about checking your emails that many times and not doing it.
Either way it destroys and cripples any reasonable flow you may achieve in a day.
Its additive and many of us just do it out of habit. It’s a habit that costs you minutes a day in actual time and much more in time wasted in stopping and starting tasks.
It would not be unreasonable to say that, in an average day, up to an hour of prime productive time is wasted in servicing our email addiction. If you are checking your email more than 3 times in a day, you are wasting time.
