Life is too small not to always look for exceptional thoughts and things.

The most dangerous email habit (Added to notion)

Here’s one of the most dangerous email habits:

Checking your email first thing you wake up.

We’ve all done it.

We pick up our phone, tablet, look at the PC and check through our emails for something… for what? To know that you’re important, wanted, needed?

What inevitably happens? That one email destroys any real change of true productivity for the whole day. STOP!

Don’t check your email first thing when you wake up.

Wake up, go through your morning routine and then get one thing done.

Seriously, just one thing. Preferably your most important task. Then check your email.

Then if you go down the dark path of a very unproductive day, at least you’ve done one productive thing you can be proud of.

Ever had those days where you just said, “I’ve done nothing of worth at all!”?

Stop checking email first thing in the morning, and won’t have to say that again.
