The Solution

Life can be much simpler. Stop organizing your email into folders or trying hard to reach Inbox Zero. Use an app like CloudMagic which lets you search through your inbox with ease and eliminate the time wasted in organizing emails. There is no simpler solution to this, and LifeHacker agrees with me. If you’re really looking for a solution or a GTD tip for better emailing, try the two minute email theory which makes a lot more sense.

There is only one way out, surrender and embrace the way you handle your emails. Stop trying hard to become an email ninja, try becoming an email saint instead. Play by your own rules, stop learning new things and tricking your brain that you’re being productive. All that Inbox Zero manages to do is help you become a smart procrastinator.

Having said all that, if Inbox Zero works for you, that’s fantastic! We all have our own theories. I would still love to know your views.
