I do need a break and STOP CHECKING my INBOX frequently. Email though an amazingly convenient medium of communication, frequent checking of emails can lead to toxic side effects.

In his book A WORLD WITHOUT EMAIL, Cal Newport has enlightened us on the harmful effects of checking frequent emails and its impact to deep work.

“While the ability to rapidly communicate using digital messages is useful, the frequent disruptions created by this behavior also make it hard to focus, which has a bigger impact on our ability to produce valuable output than we may have realized.”
