Episode 2005: Anthony Ongaro explains how constant access to email fuels distraction, stress, and productivity loss. By removing email from your phone, checking messages in intentional batches, and separating tasks from your inbox, you can regain focus and reduce the mental clutter that email overload creates. His simple approach helps you work with more clarity, enter flow more easily, and feel more in control of your day. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.breakthetwitch.com/email-overwhelm/ Quotes to ponder: "Repeat after me: my inbox is not a to-do list." "Overwhelm is remedied by choosing the highest priority tasks and diving into them while attempting to get into a flow, a feeling of enjoyable challenge where time passes quickly and we get 'into the zone', so we can reach peak productivity on those tasks." "Not only is this completely impractical, but it actually makes managing our inboxes much more stressful and overwhelming."
