Organize Your Office For More Efficiency And Money!
If you take time to look and observe your office now, you may realize how drastically it has changed since the first day you moved in. You then remember having a few problems like losing important documents, repeating the same work or mismatching the details because of disorganization. You can still fix things easily though. Learn these few arrangement tips in the workplace and watch how well performance and attitude can improve.
I start by getting rid of the trash, which doesn’t include my Zippo, of course. I take away all old papers, receipts, staple wires, food and anything else that has been sitting on my desk for months or years. You’ll be surprised how many books or magazines you’ve actually left without reading a single page for a while. I put all other items in a box neatly such as extra book ends, pens, journals and paper bags. Later on, I can still use them but it is always better to keep them out of sight to improve my focus on the work at hand.
Next, I arrange the files accordingly. Some of the ways you can do this is by organizing the papers by date, by demand or by type. For example, I differentiate the present from the incoming or past or categorize the documents according to the source or type of work. I find it very effective to place small tags so I can quickly access the files I need.
I also clean out my drawers to get rid of clutter and other items and materials I no longer need. I put a special spot for my personal items like my cellular phone charger and Cigar accessories. I assign the other drawers for confidential and important documents. You may also want to keep a vault for secure documents and keeping money.
When arranging my desktop table, I make sure that I leave enough room as vacant space. This is supposed to be the spot where I get to study and review files, write letters or make sketches depending on the assigned task and even read spreadsheets. I find it very helpful to keep this area free of clutter after each use. Make sure you install a good light fixture. Another good approach is placing a calendar or organizer as big as the available space then covering it with a sheet of glass. The space then works doubly as an organizer, which makes scheduling and planning so much easier.
It is best that you place a garbage bin under your desk. Although models with the lid are better to look at, you’ll find that open ones are easier and more convenient to use, as you will be throwing away lots of paper and items as you go through your work. You may want to follow a certain color scheme as well to make the workplace more conducive for concentrating. Two tones are sufficient, preferably light ones that help lighten up mood and thoughts. Assign a secret place as well, where you can keep your Cigarette case and other paraphernalia.
