Have you had a rough day lately? Don’t worry, me too. I created a quick hack to cheer up any day.
1- Create a label in Gmail called ‘happy’
2- Any time you get an email that is positive, label it happy and archive it.
3- Whenever you are not happy go to that label and read one of those emails.
Enjoy! What else do you to cheer yourself up?

i need this
that’s kind of cute, actually, and not a bad idea
Should train WordPress’ Akismet to distinguish between “happy” emails and not. Then after a while I could read only the happy emails, slowly drifting away into a world of ignorant bliss.
haha i love this idea!
Sri,
I’m not a tax accountant…we already had this discussion, so please stop being a little bitch 🙂 haha!
I need a happy folder today! Great idea….
What else do I do to cheer myself up?
Online shopping…. bad habit, but when the UPS driver pulls up I am oh so happy. 🙂

Very simple, very clever! Can you send me something funny so I can get the happiness going?
Perhaps you can set up a pissed off label as well so that when you are frustrated and need to vent, you can read an e-mail that you ripped into someone and it makes you feel vindicated, oh that is evil!

BTW, Sri, I have some catchin’ up to do to knock you off the number one spot!
Sri,
I always know your comments/emails are going to make me smile!
i also created a label called ‘Shivani’. I am now going archive tax and accounting related emails under that label.
brilliant. absolutely brilliant.
I am going to do that. ur a smart mofo! Let me send u a positive email soon so that i am guaranteed a spot in ur special folder.
Shivani,
Tear drop….
i just search: noah in my inbox and read any of those emails 😉
I just thought of this 2 weeks ago. I have around 4 emails in there so far. I haven’t had to use it yet but they are there just in case.
Hmm, interesting idea. Did you come up w/ that one all on your own? How many e-mails do you have in YOUR happy folder?
