Go Home Email Free - Nicholas Bate
What will this book do for you?
Email. Imagine a psychologist asking for associations with that evocative word:
Pain in the butt
, nightmare
, wonderful
, love it
, hate it
Stops me falling asleep in meetings
Spoils my training sessions with delegates who become distracted by incoming mail
Caused my sister to have an accident whilst driving and trying to respond to a text
My toddler hates it when I just go near my phone
Can't stand it when a phone lights up in the cinema
My boyfriend is so rude answering emails when we are trying to have important conversations
It causes so much pressure and stress: my boss expects emails to be answered immediately, even after we have left work
I worry if I notice emails from overseas when I get up during the night
I can work from home. I can work from anywhere. If only it would just sometimes STOP!
Yes, email! Email came from nowhere and came from nowhere so quickly many of us are still trying to decide the best way to handle it. And so far we are not doing very well. Although at its best, the ability to send a long letter to our friend across the world – for free – and get an immediate response is marvellous, the constant email reminders as we try to run a meeting, or perhaps settle down to a romantic meal, are challenging to say the least. The problems are many. We are still growing with a developing product that in its infancy was a joy, but has now become a monster. Once only accessible with a dedicated machine, it can now follow us anywhere. And email is of course just the biggest of the ‘digital interrupters’ followed by texts, updates from Facebook, Twitter and many other social media we might use and others that we haven't even dreamt of yet.
What will this book do for you? Ultimately it will let you drive home – or catch the train or bus – and feel you are genuinely email free until the next working day. It will enable you to switch off both physically and digitally without guilt or anxiety about work and without losing the pleasure of the personal email. And it will do that in the minimum number of words, the least amount of your time and the most easily implemented of suggestions.
Here's the structure of Go Home Email Free
Section1: Back to Basics. Sometimes we lose the plot. What's email good for and absolutely poor at? Resolving this can remove a whole sweep of email challenges.
Section 2: Hang On. Who's in Charge Here? Our first big idea: that you are in charge and you are going to reassert that power and start making some choices.
Section 3: The Big Breakthrough: Find Your Zone. Our second big idea: creating email-free times. And places. And behaviours.
Section 4: Multiple Breakthroughs. And now a whole stack of good ideas such as batching.
Section 5: We Need To Talk. We'll keep coming back to the
