It's critical. I don't allow my senses to be bombarded by interruption. Interruption is the enemy of productivity, after all.
I do have regular processes and routines to check those notifications, or obviously check them when I'm expecting an intermittent reply.
The funny thing with being a younger entrepreneur is you put up with all sorts of this BS either leading you to an early burn out, or start figuring out there's a whole world out there to enjoy as much as startups.
I simply stopped looking at workaholics with personal lives in shambles as role-models. I look for the uber successful that are successful in all areas of their lives.
