This podcast is fantastic. It feels really nice to hear others feel the same way as I do about emails. It really causes me to have a rock in my stomach. Same feeling as Josh: « i feel that i am not doing what I am supposed to do. » GTD was also a great system that saved me. But i always have to force myself to being it back to its simplest form. I can get carried away... ;) Thank you!!
