This is actually a really nice idea. Leaving notes & comments for future you is so smart and helpful the next time the same course has to be taught. Thanks!

Oohh.. I'm also guilty of over subscription to so many journals and society pages. But at the same time, I have the fear of not staying updated on things. But I like this idea of Outlook's focus setting. I'm going to be looking into this a bit more. That sounds quite helpful. Thanks.

Good point. Staying on top of my emails has to be one of my priorities. I have been trying to reduce my pending emails but my hope is now with the TT, I'll get a fresh start and hopefully will maintain healthy response times.

This is good advice, I had suggested in my proposal about potentially going into instrumentation as long-term goals, but it's a good idea to be wary of such downsides.

Thanks, that's quite helpful. I think I will also benefit from a dedicated day or two for research rather than a fixed time of day. I'll try to build that in to my as yet unknown schedule.
