I remember during my freshman year of college (2005-2006) a time when I didn't get any emails. None. I'd check my email at least once a day, often times more, and I was consistently and frequently disappointed. Those were the days before I used the Archive function in gmail, so I could see huge gaps in the dates between the emails I had received.
Then one day, it dawned on me: I wasn't getting any emails because I wasn't sending any out myself.
It's a simple principle and but realizing that has made a difference - in a lot of areas of my life, not just in filling up my inbox.
I send out a lot of emails now-a-days.
PS - the word "e-mail" officially got changed to "email" last week. Nerd fact of the day.
