No more 'To Do' lists #2

"Don't do" #2 is

DON'T CHECK EMAILS REGULARLY

For me that reads: "Don't email before 10.00am or after 4.00pm and only check them at set times, say 10.00am and 3.30pm. You must define one important/key task for each day and that must be your first priority. Email addiction will destroy your business and screw up your brain".

Regretably you are right - they do stop you achieving what you need to. You do need to be strong willed to avoid this risk

I try to clear mine by 10:00 leaving the morning free for what I had planned - does not seem to work though - I really should deal with priorities first. My excuse is I deal with China / East so they are still at work early in the morning so I can get a reply back... whats your excuse?
