Mindset ("set") and setting are both critical important when beginning the practice of making calls.

The mindset required for calltime is different from the mindset required for any other part of running for office or running a nonprofit. Therefore it is crucial to establish a ritual that gets you in that frame of mind. Besides clearing your desk and closing superfluous programs on your computer, implement one specific ritual that you do exclusively during calltime and no other time. This could be opening a beverage like a specific soda that you only have during calltime. It could be a moment of mindfulness, it could be doing 10 pushups or screaming at the top of your lungs. Doesn't matter as long as it puts you in the right frame of mind.
