How many emails in your inbox?

Not unopened ones, just those you haven't had time to do something with. Ok so you are likely one of these people who have done the time management courses, you know never read something more than once before it is either actioned or binned. Maybe you have more time, or your head is less full than mine seems to be every day.

Today though was the day of the inbox clear out, where 120 became 9. It might have been less, but my boss isn't back till Monday and it seems unfair just to forward them on when she will have 3 weeks worth. I am very proud of the fact that I sorted them by sender and then dealt with them in an extremely systematic way. I even finished off 2 quite large pieces of work I have been avoiding. I have been thinking this week; I am not good at finishing things, excellent at starting, rubbish at finishing. But today I did myself proud, I ended the week with a nearly empty inbox and I also sorted out my computer files - delete, move, delete more; very satisfying. Life in the NHS isn't so bad after all; perhaps it is the wine I've had since I got home?
