You probably waste 2.5 hours weekly deciding when to handle emails. Successful people use the two-minute rule: if an email takes less than two minutes to answer, handle it immediately. Otherwise, schedule a specific time block. This prevents email buildup and saves 30 minutes daily.

Today: Set a timer for 2 minutes when checking new emails. If it takes longer, add it to your dedicated email block between 10-11am.

Today: Set your phone to 'Priority Only' mode from 9am-12pm, allowing calls/messages from only 3-5 key contacts.
