Why Email Doesn’t Work…Well For a long time, I relied heavily on my email inbox, flagging items, setting reminders etc… The problem I had with this is that, well, your email inbox should be for email. The harder it is to manage, the more likely you will fall behind. Regardless of the method used, being successful at this requires a consistent discipline. There is without question no right answer to this age-old question, as it boils down to what works best for you. As the list always seems to grow faster than you can complete them, the challenge becomes more than just getting them done, but how to manage it all! In my experience, I have seen people try everything from using their email inbox, to spreadsheets to scribbled spiral-bound notebooks, clutched to one’s chest as if an unnatural extension of their body.


It’s a given that any working professional has a never-ending list of tasks, to-do’s and follow-ups.
