I’ve had the brilliant idea of (wait for it...!) replying to personal emails WHEN I GET THEM instead of waiting until I “get round to it”, which usually takes a few weeks and involves having to remember to reply and feeling guilty for leaving it so long.
I’m not always in the mood to write emails but if I get them out of the way then I don’t have to worry about them.
Did someone say brilliant? Oh, it was me :P

Well said!
You sometimes have to reply to an email in a manner that doesn't warrant a reply. This is a challenge. Otherwise you may get caught in an Endless Email Loop. There are people out there suffering this. They look normal but deep down they're running out of responses & on the edge of sanity.
Same with text messages. Some people like to have long conversations and it costs a lot!
I don't think you should rush into locking yourself into immediate responses, Al.Sometimes you have to let a message wait until an appropriate response occurs to you.
Yes, some emails call for a more measured approach. I'm prepared to be flexible.
