Labeling your emails might sound like a chore, but it's actually extremely easy. Follow these steps and never miss an important email again.

Let's talk about inbox organization!

By clicking just one button in your Gmail settings, you can pick from different types of inboxes. In this post, I'm focusing on Priority Inbox, which allows you to separate your emails into unread, starred and read.

Priority Inbox might be for you if:
✅️ You find yourself leaving important emails unopened
✅️ You often open emails and "mark as unread", then forget about them
✅️ often star important emails and
forget to circle back to them
✅️ You like reading all your emails

We all have different productivity methods and what works for some might not work for you. Try this out and make sure to come back for more inbox organization tips!
