Visual
For those of you who are more Visually inclined, you have the most options available to you. Are you going to color code with flags, categorize by topic or action type? What about folders?
A very successful way of organizing your inbox would be to utilize two out of the three solutions. You could create folders similar to the Logical organizing style and then use flags to organize your action emails.
You could also try using your inbox in an Inspirational format and implement categories and color coding as your solutions. The categories in this scenario would replace using folders.
Regardless of which style best represents you, you need to make sure you remember the 5 important steps of maintaining a successful inbox.
1. Address what emails need action as they come in
2. Remove emails you do not need
3. File away other emails
4. Create Rules to keep your inbox tidy
