In an analog world no one would send you over little ideas and things to discuss, inspirations, junk and all that stuff on you mailbox. So take a look at the things that do not belong in your mailbox but still land there anyway.

things to readYour inbox is a place where you should manage

the incoming stream of messages, reference material, tasks and so on. Do not read longer

reference material in it. Move it to the place where it belongs: Instapaper, Pocket or other

app of your choice.

things to dream ofIn a GTD method you can turn some artefacts into

“maybe someday” material. If something is an inspiration, don’t just leave it there. Make a folder for

your dreams and put them there.
