#3: Most workers complain that they spend most of their time reading and responding to emails, and it's true. Instead try checking your email at certain times of the day - say 9am, noon, and 4pm - and do it only then.

#4: Engage "Do Not Disturb" Mode on your cell phone while you are at work. This still allows you to check you phone if you need to, but it won't be vibrating every time you get a text message.
