9 Ways To Handle Interruptions Like A Pro

1. Embrace Your Fear. Recognize that you will be distracted sometimes and accept those distractions as opportunities to improve.
2. Plan For Interruptions. Effective planning is a cornerstone of the productive lifestyle. Plan extra time in to satisfy distractions.
3. Delegate And Postpone. Once you've identified an interruption as something that needs attention, try to postpone your involvement.
4. Attack Procrastination. The simplest way to attack procrastination is to synthesize urgency with truncated deadlines. If it normally takes you 3 hours to do something, hit the bathroom, grab a glass of water, set a timer for 90 minutes, and tear into your work! 
5. Split Your Day Into Targets. Distractions are most dangerous to the person working without short-term goals. You can keep yourself out of the danger zone by setting targets throughout your day. 
6. Limit Inputs. The more you limit channels people can use to distract you, the less likely it is that you'll be distracted. 
7. Batch Outputs. Responding to emails in batches and scheduling a block of time to make phone calls etc
8. Communicate Your Schedule To Others. When it comes to managing people-based distractions, communication is key. Need to finish a project? Let the people in your work group know that you'll be off-limits until a certain time. 
9. Begin With The Main Point. When you encounter a distraction, get to the heart of it immediately.
