4. Declutter Email

a) Unsubscribe from Newsletters

You surely don’t have time to read all 30 motivational newsletters you have subscribed to overtime.

Stick with two or three quality newsletters.

b) Clear Your Inbox

Take a tour of your inbox and Archive any emails that can be important in the future but are not urgent. Delete any spam or marketing emails but be sure to unsubscribe from them before deleting.

c) Use Email Less

You don’t need to constantly check and immediately respond to every new message.

Follow this golden rule: “The fewer emails you sent, the fewer emails you receive.”

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!

Shankul Varada

Best app ever! You heard it right. This app has helped me get back on my quest to get things done while equipping myself with knowledge everyday.

Sean Green

Even five minutes a day will improve your thinking. I've come across new ideas and learnt to improve existing ways to become more motivated, confident and happier.

Giovanna Scalzone

Brilliant. It feels fresh and encouraging. So many interesting pieces of information that are just enough to absorb and apply. So happy I found this.

Laetitia Berton

I have only been using it for a few days now, but I have found answers to questions I had never consciously formulated, or to problems I face everyday at work or at home. I wish I had found this earlier, highly recommended!

Jamyson Haug
