It’s not enough to be busy, so are the ants. The question is, what are we busy about? -Henry David Thoreau GMAIL AND YOUR BUSINESS!
Multitasking Does it work? Makes us feel better emotionally? Myth or not that it makes us feel more productive? We can actually get more stuff done at the same time? There’s no such thing as multitasking. Just task switching – or at best, background tasking, in which one activity consumes our attention while we’re mindlessly performing another.

Reply label: Someone is requesting you to do something (with or without deadline). Examples include submitting reports, verifying something, and taking on any task. Someone is asking you to respond to something but it requires more deep thoughts from you to respond. Examples include people asking for your opinion or asking about your availability for an event, showing, weekly report. After you’ve replied to s in the this folder, you then move them to the Archive folder. Within Gmail it’s easy, you remove the Reply label by clicking on the X next to the label name.
Waiting label: Typical s that come in the Waiting folder: Tracking codes for UPS or Fedex packages coming your way. 1.Examples include shipping tracking numbers from online shopping. You delegated a task and are waiting for a response / result. 1.Examples include s from virtual assistants, employees, and anyone you are waiting to hear from.

The Two-minute Rule If it can be done in less than two minutes do it now 2
The value in this rule is that you go through your inbox really fast, and initially process only what is necessary. If someone needs a quick response, you’ve taken care of that. If an needs more attention, you can work on that later and prioritize which gets the most attention (after your inbox is processed and at Gboxzero).
