I aggregated those topics from various sources and my personal experience. I’ll keep updating this frequently.

1. Do not agree to meetings or calls with no clear agenda or end time.
2. Do not agree to meetings that take more than 45 min.
3. Do not take free introductory calls or meetings.

   All calls that I have from unrecognized phone numbers were SPAM, Sales calls and many distractions. If someone wants to schedule a call with me, please send a meeting request.

   I am in the zone, concentrating on Getting Things Done. Any call will distruct me.
