One habit I had was deliberately missing calls or not answering if my friends called to just talk or if they were just calling me to just come down and hang out for a while. Everybody needs some time alone but ducking phone calls I didn't like because sometimes I missed calls when someone was calling for something important as well.

I now attend every single call I get on my cell, no matter who it's from and what time it is, unless its late in the night. Even if I am feeling very lazy and all I want to do is to be alone and philosophize or over-intellectualize about really really un-important stuff, I pick up the call and explain away why I can't talk/come down now ...
