Your inbox is a to-do list—which is why we’ve redesigned the inbox to make it easier to identify important to-dos, create new to-dos, and hide distractions. twobirdapp.medium.com/your-i…

When your inbox is full of newsletters and automated updates, it can be difficult to focus on the emails that actually require your attention. Twobird gives you a more streamlined inbox experience by automatically filtering out these low priority emails. twobirdapp.medium.com/twobir…
Did you know? You can share Twobird notes with anyone, and the person you share with doesn't need to be signed up for Twobird in order to read or edit the note. Learn more about Twobird notes here: twobirdapp.medium.com/twobir…

Food for thought: you can categorize different methods of communication by register (how formal/informal) and persistence (how easy it is to reference in the future).

The ease with which you can send messages makes Twobird more informal and dynamic compared to docs, and message searchability makes Twobird more persistent than instant messages.

By setting reminders, you'll have greater control over when and how to address the tasks that require your attention. twobirdapp.medium.com/twobir…
Great article on habit formation. For most of us, establishing a new habit isn't about willpower, but creating circumstances that encourage you to automatically perform certain actions without making the conscious decision to do so.
This is the time of year when a lot of people are reminded that self-control doesn't work how we've been told it should, so I talked to a few people about how habits are actually formed. I also talked to the most self-controlled person I know: my dad. theatlantic.com/health/archi…
So, for example, if you're looking to establish better email habits, the solution isn't going to be creating an elaborate system for sorting and tagging your emails. If anything, you'll be more likely to succeed if you find a way to give yourself LESS work to do.

And even if you are the kind of person who struggles to form new habits, the healthiest thing to do is, as @amandamull writes, "make peace with who you are as a person." You might never be the kind of person who lives at Inbox Zero—and that's more than okay.
In The Dawn of Everything, archaeologist @davidwengrow and anthropologist @davidgraeber note the frequency with which ancient philosophers wrote their works in the form of dialogues, concluding: "Human thought is inherently dialogic."
Unsubscribing from unwanted newsletters is one of the most impactful ways to give yourself a cleaner inbox. Manage all of your subscriptions in one convenient place with Twobird. twobirdapp.medium.com/twobir…
A tool is only as good as your ability to stick with it. Simple notes and reminders are important and useful enough that they belong in a place where you'll never forget to go— your inbox! 📬
