When I made my start in the working world, I believed a terrible lie about my inbox.
I thought that the best employees respond to emails immediately. So of course, I prided myself on replying to emails quicker than any of my coworkers -- even if that meant dropping whatever important task I was supposed to be doing.
Thankfully, this competitive spirit around my inbox didn't last long. While I still love the feeling of "inbox zero," I've come to understand the amount of time your inbox can steal. According to a study by McKinsey Global Institute, the average worker spends 28% of the workweek reading and responding to emails.
