Step 4: Get Even More Efficient

Once you have the basics down, you can start to apply some advanced efficiency ideas.

Reduce busy work.

You should aim to reduce the time you spend on low value busy work that doesn’t actually accomplish your goals, so that you can spend more time on higher value work. Look back at the time logs you created. How much time are you spending on busy work? How can you decrease that number? One easy way to do this is to stop sorting your email into folders. Just set up an automatic archive system and use search to find things later. If you are old enough to be in the work force, chances are search algorithms have gotten a lot better than you remember them to be. It is now likely that you’ll find that email faster by just searching for it than by trying to remember how you categorized it and going and finding it in the appropriate folder.
