Similar to paper clutter, a disorganized E-Mail account and desktop can be overwhelming, inefficient and time consuming. Cluttered E-mail is more insidious because it’s not visible and can easily build up “behind the scenes”. People are generally split into two camps

• Organizing email to death with dozens of folders
• Keeping thousands of emails in the inbox with no system whatsoever

The goal is to keep your inbox, desktop and your mind clearly focused on what needs to be done.
