how to manage your work emails like a CEO. The number one reason why your work inbox is stressing you out and why you're always behind is because you don't have a system. So in today's video, we are going to fix that. Hi, I'm Simon and welcome to episode one of my quiet productivity at work series, where I teach you to get twice as much done, reduce your work hours while still being seen as a top performer. This is the system I use inspired by David Allen's book Getting Things Done. Every time you open an email, you have to force yourself to take one of five actions. Instead of mulling over your email and share what to do, follow these principles ruthlessly. Here's a quick example of how I go through my emails using this system. Give this video heart if you enjoyed this little episode and follow along if you're ready to build a quietly rich and successful career.
