Email Efficiency Tip: Turn off unnecessary notifications.

 

Interruptions are productivity killers. Email dings and flashes have turned into the most prolific source of interruptions seen by man. Considering it takes the average adult four minutes to recover from any given interruption, we’re constantly loosing valuable time to simply regain focus.

Turn them off. View your inbox when you choose to — not when “it” wants you to. Go one step further and close your inbox down until it is the appropriate time to check your emails again. You will immediately realize the instant gratifications that come with establishing control.
