Suffering from work stress, getting information overload, too many emails?

With email a constant source of work stress & anxiety, how relieved was I that 150 unread emails that needed to be attended to merged into the 1000′s of other read emails.

Was this a disaster, a catastrophe, did people die, nope.
How often do we unnecessarily create stressful situations, place unrealistic expectations on ourselves to over achieve, to accomplish everything, to be a daily super human information processing machine?

Is your desk piled high with stuff to do, chances are that 90% of the pile will never be attended to, unless of course your planning on taking annual leave to work your way through the pile.

Is your desk neatly organised or a potential paper bomb fire?
How you organise your desk can be extrapolated to how you organise your life.

So do something today about work stress and reduce your information overload, delete some emails.
