This morning I had 60 new emails in my inbox, here’s how how I crushed it in <15 minutes
For the first time in years, my inbox hits Zero everyday and yours can too
This is the simple method that will give you back hours
⬇️⬇️⬇️
1/ @jspujji is the master of Inbox 0 & was my guide
He built his own sw stack of plugins to optimize his inbox. But now, gmail & Superhuman offer most of these features
The path to Inbox 0 is a stool with 3 legs: shortcuts, batched emails, & the 4 Ds, w/o one, it will fall
2/ The key to making Inbox Zero happen quickly is shortcuts.
Gmail requires you to enable them, but once you do, it’s like doing emails in Excel!
Any Excel junkies in the house?
You can enable them in settings
3/ A common retort is “but it’s faster to use my mouse than look up the shortcut every time”
Wrong!
It’s faster, because you don’t know them yet. Once you look them up a few times, you’ll remember them and be blazing through your inbox in no time
4/ Viewing the full list of shortcuts is always one shortcut away!
Shift + ?
And the full list appears on your screen
