how to turn your gmail into a productive hub timesaving tips

TIMESAVER Tip #1:
TURN GMAIL INTO YOUR PRODUCTIVE HUB:

Here is one way you can turn your Gmail box into a productive hub.

Whenever an email lands in your inbox; and it contains something that you need to address, star it.

You could easily label it too, it’s just that stars are perfect, if you don’t use them for anything else.

So, starred mails are now your to-do list.  Every morning, open up the previously starred emails and go through the list, to see what needs to go into today’s to-do list.

Add all those items manually to Google Tasks, which is a mini-window in Gmail, much like any chatbox. For the rest of the day, your to-do list is available for you at a glance.

Here’s the important part:  You need to de-star an email once you add it to your Tasks, otherwise, your starred items inbox will get to a point where you can’t separate what’s old and what’s new.
