We've all done it and it must stop. Constantly checking our email on a smartphone will be the death of us. Don't we have anything better to do? Seriously, we know better. We know how to be productive. We just checked it 5 minutes ago and there was nothing. Why do it again?
Here's why we must stop the madness:
Each email we receive causes some type of good or bad emotion. I've received encouraging and discouraging work emails when I was at home with the family that affected my mood. So email is basically controlling our emotional life and we must take back control.
So what do we do instead of check out emails constantly? Anything. Memorize a poem or scripture or song. Meditate. Have a book handy. I'm about the finish Outliers and have really enjoyed it.
