In the book “No BS Time Management for Entrepreneurs”, Dan Kennedy says “If they can’t find you, they can’t interrupt you.”
On average, you will be interrupted at least once every 6-8 minutes throughout your day – by the phone, by email, by text, by instant message, by someone stopping by your office.
When you really need to focus, make yourself unfindable for a while.
Turn off the phone (put it on ‘do not disturb’ mode), turn off the email, turn off the instant messaging, close the door or leave the office for a while to give yourself some uninterrupted time to think, plan, work.
The world will keep spinning without you, and you might actually get something really important done.
