I'm always unmotivated to answer email, and it backs up and stresses me out. Then I read on Lifehacker the idea that you can reply to any email in 5 sentences, and so that's my aim. It's a fun challenge, and more often than not, very achievable, too. Saves a lot of time and gehas made me more productive. I don't think my correspondence has lost out either - a little editing is not a bad thing... xx Can I suggest something kind-of related?

It helps get me motivated because a big demotivator for me is having so many things to do that I don't know where to start. Also, when I'm busy, whenever I choose one thing to work on I worry that I'm not doing the rest! This way I have only four things to think about. Once I crank through those, I can do whatever else I want. I actually do the rule of four because I’m 33% cooler.
