A World Without Email, with Cal Newport

<p>#303: Can you imagine living in a world without email? Most of us can’t - how would we get work done? - but this is what Cal Newport advocates for in his newest book, A World Without Email. Cal cites a study that found the average knowledge worker checks various communication tools once every six minutes. At that rate, it’s a wonder we get any work done at all.</p> <p>Cal argues that modifying our habits (like checking email at designated times) isn’t enough. We need to look for solutions outside the inbox and seek to reduce back-and-forth communication at all costs. If you’re drained by your inbox, we chat about strategies, processes, and systems that can help streamline your work and communication flow.</p> <p>For more information, visit the show notes at <a href= "https://affordanything.com/episode303" target="_blank" rel= "noopener">https://affordanything.com/episode303</a> </p>
