Delegating inbox management to an AI transformed the workday for the author, shifting from organizing emails to investing attention strategically.
Trying to achieve 'Inbox Zero' was futile, leading to the realization of acting as a highly-paid administrative assistant for oneself.
The author's approach now involves copying subject lines and senders of unread emails into an AI assistant each morning for strategic planning.
This tactic shifts the author from feeling anxious to a sense of calm and strategic control over tasks in the inbox.
The AI-powered triage not only saves time but also preserves valuable mental energy for more important work.
The author's new book, 'The Centaur’s Edge: Reclaiming Your Focus and Doubling Your Output in the Age of AI,' delves deep into these strategies and is available on Amazon.
The book offers a comprehensive system to transform not only inbox management but also meetings, research, and creative processes.
