““Here’s how I go through my mail using the “touch it once” principal: o I walk out to the mailbox and grab the mail. o As I walk back up my driveway I’m picking out all the junk mail. o I toss the junk mail into the recycle bin in my garage, before I even walk back into the house. o I easily pick out the magazines and put them in my magazines-to-be-read stack on the coffee table. o I take the remaining bills—that’s all there is left, nobody sends letters anymore—and set them on my bills-to-be-paid-pile next to my computer. o Because I’ve time blocked bill paying every Sunday night I don’t even bother opening those envelopes until that time.””
