78 Emails

All of them from WA. Every post, every comment, every training, and every review. I wonder how these all get answered.

Yesterday I read, commented, answered, and reviewed over 50 emails and when I thought i was throught that pile, more kept popping in.

Breakfast

I'm preparing the morning meal, and after I have some painting to do. After that, I'll be back.

My next tasks will be placing pins on Pinterest as part of my bootcamp training.

By late afternoon, I'll be back to emails.

Perhaps some will comment on how you get it all done.

Thanks for reading and commenting!

Hi David, wow looks like you have a lot on the go. Time management has been a crucial factor for me. I see Rika has left you a link on time management, hope it helps.

Answering and commenting on the e-mails you receive is admirable and it shows your caring and dedication.

All the best,
Michael

I have created training a long time ago about this. Maybe this can be helpful:))

There is so much great information available within this community and it’s free (actually priceless ) yes it does seem overwhelming sometimes... yet in any business you have certain things that seem overwhelming ... but think of what you’d miss if you didn’t set aside a time or a way that works for you to work it into your schedule ...
It also allows you to truly connect with others
This community of winners is priceless ....
I hope this helps....

It is very understandable where you would feel overwhelmed. I get all those emails too and what I like to do is block off time just for correspondence a couple times per day when I get to feeling that way. For example 30 minutes in the morning and then at night or whatever works.
I know for me I have been working solo for the past few years without much of community and upon coming back here it can feel overwhelming when you have gone it alone so long. I really resonated with this thank you for posting.

Hi.....I was running into the same thing. SO MANY EMAILS!! And, I do want to answer them all. However, I have limited time to work on my business. I'm new...not even a month yet....so I need time to set up my website and learn! I have to prioritize. I am setting a rule for myself. I'll read and answer 5 emails a day. That's all I can do right now. The rest of the time has to be spent on learning and doing. Good luck and thanks for this....it is overwhelming.

Thank You, we are experiencing the same thing and so are others. Let's do our best.

I spend several hours every day reading and responding to emails here at WA.

Thank You

Don't let it overwhelm you David. It sounds like you have a good priority system set up.
Set aside time to read the emails and respond, but don't let it fill your day or else nothing else will get done.
They are an important part of helping you understand and be encouraged or to encourage others along the way.
I try to review as many emails as time allots, answer some and then move on to other things that are necessary to build your site and business.
It can be overwhelming but I try not to let it overwhelm me.
Blessings

Thanks, Ray. I will set aside a specific amount of time for emails, and that after I do my website work for the day.

I wonder the same thing

You can set those off
Go to your profile> Account settings
Down under You can set email options to no

Fleeky, does that switch all email off or can they be selective.

Very slowly, unfortunately, unless you adjust the settings to keep the email from appearing!
