There are SIX different types of procrastination personalities. Do you know what your procrastination personality is? ​Take this short quiz to find out!


We spend more time on email than we realize because we dip in and out of it constantly throughout the day. All those little “adventures” add up.

Here are 4 tips to minimize your email’s influence on your day and save you time:

#1 Check Your Email Less

People spend a surprising amount of time on email because they check it throughout the day.

The first thing you can do is check it fewer times.

#2 Unsubscribe

Don’t give your time to things you don’t care about so unsubscribe from newsletters that you don’t care about.

#3 Use Canned Responses

If there are questions you get asked often, draft your typical answer so you can just cut and paste them.

#4 Send Fewer and Shorter Emails

The more emails you send, the more responses you get and the more of your time you lose.

Keeping it short also saves both you and your recipient time, and is more likely to get you a response.
