We have heard over and over that it’s a bad idea to start your day by checking email. However, Dorie Clark at Harvard Business Review put up a case that you should check your email first thing in the morning. “Believing in the gospel of “doing the most important tasks first” and pushing email correspondence to the end of the day, I found that I consistently avoided answering certain messages because they required hard choices that my brain found taxing… I realized that if I finally wanted to vanquish those messages straggling at the bottom of my inbox, what I needed most wasn’t simply time to respond; it was the willpower and discernment to make good judgments and respond accordingly.” By attacking your inbox to start your stay with full energy, you can overcome the procrastination to reply important messages and go through the emails much quicker.
