Today’s topic sounds a lot ruder than it is. In essence it’s saying you don’t touch something/pick it up unless you intend to do something with it. Not the mail, your email or that dirty cup on your bedside table.
I couldn’t believe I’d not come across this concept until the end of last year (courtesy of Kevin Kruse’s book 15 Secrets Successful People Know About Time Management) while Carly’s been doing it pretty much her whole life.
Does it work?
Yes!
