We all spend more time on email than we should. But does when you do that first check matter?

When I started writing about what the most successful people do before breakfast a few years ago, many people asked me where email fits in a productive morning routine.

We know there’s a school of thought--best summarized by Julie Morgenstern’s wise book Never Check E-Mail in the Morning--saying you shouldn’t check it early on. But many of us do, in fact, a recent survey done by the Huffington Post and Real Simple found that 47% of the 3,583 women polled kept their smartphones on their night stands so they could check email right when they woke up.
