People value time over money—and they value a faster “no” over a slower “yes”

Loved this insight!

All great and practical suggestions - thank you! ... Do it now is especially powerful for me ... If I can, I read something or touch something once and respond and close it out at that moment ... I use a digital folder to organize and queue other work for appropriate reflection/action ... Scheduling emails and also using "Snooze" until a specified day/time are also effective for me and people I coach.

One thing that befuddles me is that there are paid services online for filtering your phone calls and emails, but not for physical junk mail....I wonder if there is a service that you can pay USPS to just DO NOT SEND junk mail, I think that might be a popular service among people who value their time.
