In your every day life, interruptions are as common as a cold - and just as annoying! There’s no avoiding them. In the business world, no one faces more interruptions in the course of a single day than those working at home. How many times have you sat down to begin an important project and the phone rings? What about those many times you have begun a report on a very important project when sumone knocks on ur front door?
What is the best way to handle this type of situation? Do you hide when the doorbell rings, hoping they won’t see your car? Do you answer the phone with a hoarse voice, sniffing and sneezing while you explain you are simply too sick to talk? Short of putting a sign on your door reading “Quarantined”, there is no quick fix to this problem. The fact is, you must get your work done, and you need time for urself.

MG dear If I may give some advice to guppies; Take time out for the little things too. Life is nothing but tiny incidents. Without them we would be hell of a lot more efficient, but would we be much better than machines? :)
i hate interruptions, although they very rare to me…
Well first of all i let everyone around me know that i will be busy so don’t interrupt unless its a life or death situation (no if we don’t go out to a movie you won’t die ) and usually it stays very quiet while im working on my intended task. Oh yeah and my phone ringer is usally off when im busy on a project, as far as the doorbell is concerned, i just let it ring, i mean how long will the person ring it 5x 10x max…they cn never tel im home for sure cause my car is in the garage

Very common problem. I too hate those interuptions.How do I handle it?
I tell my friends whom I have almost daily contact that I will be busy. Usually they respect me.
Ringing Phone is your choice pick it up or not. Now a days you have call display to find out who is calling. If you have picked it up.Tell the truth that you are busy,thanks, call later.
A knock on the door, I think we should respond to it, and make them aware that you will not be able to give much time at present because you are tied up with other important things. You will make it up later.
If you really know who the knocker is & want to avoid simply don't answer.
