I’ve finally processed everything in my inbox! Ahead of schedule I might add… Well, things will keep coming in, but I do hope the inbox will stay that way. I’m still left with action items, things I know I need to do e.g. reply an email, review an article, watch a video, download photos etc. But I already know exactly what to do with them, so they don’t clog up the mind too much. Still, these actions have been scheduled in. I’m aiming to do just 5 action items a day. It should be a small enough target to achieve.
Is my mind any clearer? Well… right now I can see what has been clogging up my mind. I’ve got too many personal projects running around. So, Project Dumping will include removing some of them as well, and leave those that are most important to me, or those which I derive most satisfaction.
Also, my google reader has got too many subscriptions. I spend my time scrolling through most of them, and skipping those who feed only summaries (no offense to those who feed summaries, just makes it a bit harder to read, especially on the phone). Project Dumping will be extended there as well. It’s important to feed the mind only the good stuff, so that the mind will churn out only the good stuff. Of course, sometimes, we have to go through fluff to understand what is the good stuff, like looking for a good teacher. I’ve spent 10 years learning Tai Chi to know that I was only doing Tai Chi aerobics… I guess I could spare some time reading fluff to make my mind filter reading materials more efficiently. 
If you think this is worth sharing, do share it with your friends. Thank you for reading.
