I've been using emacs for over 10 years. I use it for the things it is good at, and other tools for what they are good at. In practical terms I use emacs for complex or repetitive editing tasks, org-mode for planning and lists, budget my finances using a my own emacs code, edit and work with Clojure and Common Lisp, writing blogs. What I don't use it for: email/browsing - the web works better for me. Scala/Java - IntelliJ. Python - PyStorm. file management and git - bash shell is fine.
