Saved from email and whatsapp hell (feat. Cal Newport) #325

Saved from email and whatsapp hell (feat. Cal Newport) #325

This podcast will change the way you use your phone, your desktop and your whatsapps!

Email is making people miserable; it has a mind of its own and it is stopping people getting on with their working lives. Cal Newport is here to save us from that.

Cal is a celebrated author and I have three of his books here at home.

The average person checks their emails 75 times per day, for heavy users it can be 400+ times per day. The average worker sends 126 emails per day - that is one every 4 minutes - and the constant interruptions are affecting the way our ancient Paleothlithic brains work. 3 working hours per day are being lost to email - valuable hours that could be spent achieving a better work/life balance.

And here are two of my pet annoyances

  • Emails with one words: "Thoughts?" (takes a time to reply, takes no time for the sender to send)
  • Whatsapps that say "How are you" (again, takes time to reply, takes no time for the sender to send)

We talk about these in the podcast too.
