		<description>Having two laptops is absolutely essential for me. The psychological benefits are amazing too -- it&#039;s so much easier to switch to &quot;work mode&quot; when you&#039;re using an entirely different machine!</description>

		<description>I did this a long time ago.  http://www.rebron.org/toolbox/email.html

I still kind of follow it.  

Good luck.  There&#039;s a lot of information to parse through on a daily basis.</description>

		<description>Good luck. More hints: 

You don&#039;t need to reply to most things, and shouldn&#039;t. The virtuous thing to do is to let most threads die. Propagate only what really needs it.

You don&#039;t need to monitor most things. Reading news is a compulsive behavior that just begets more of itself, along with confusion and paralysis. News is a drug in business attire.

You don&#039;t need to attend every meeting (unless you scheduled yourself to attend). De-schedule yourself from as many as possible. Most meetings have nothing worthwhile happen at them, they just pad out time with the illusion of activity. Better to go for a walk.

Destroying information is good. The world produces information on its own, as noise. Your job is to extract (and compress) the important parts and destroy the unimportant parts. Zero it out. Destroying information is hard work, but it&#039;s actually part of the job.</description>
