A month of Inbox Zero

Journal entry
August 27, 2007

Putting this into the open to force myself to follow through: For the next month, I am going to practice Inbox Zero.

Yes, this is (off course) largely inspired by Merlin Mann’s recent talk at Google, which has caused a fair few ripples around the internet with people realizing the need to keep their inbox clean.

So far, my personal email inbox is clean. I still have to work on my work one, but I believe that to be doable as well.

Day three - how's it going?

So far, absolutely great. At the moment, zero messages in the inbox. Everything I receive is deleted, replied to, or moved to its proper location, be it my to-do list or calendar.

As for me I also realize the need of keeping my inbox clean. I wonder how are you coping with your task??
