You meet him several times every day. He performs small jobs for you. He sends and receives e-mail. Do you really understand his full potential?
In this vignette we give you some tips on how you can get your Outlook
to be a real buddy supporting you in every situation.
Example: did you know that Outlook could help
you be lazy while at work? Overview and planning are the secret. Doing
things NOW instead of putting them off until another day. Things that
need to be done later create stress and anxiety. Do them now, so that
you can relax instead.
When you understand the principles in Outlook, you can
then transfer them to the rest of your work. More about that later. We
begin by creating an overview in the Outlook Today window. In future chapters
of the Outlook School we will take a closer look at how the different
sections function.
If you do not recognize your Outlook in our text and our pictures? it is presumably because you do not have the latest version of the program. That does not matter. You will still be able to apply most of the tips that we give. Out lessons are based on Outlook 98. To get the most out of the Outlook School and from your Outlook buddy, our advice is upgrade NOW.
