A person’s desk is often a representation of his/her personal habits and personality. As you spend more time at your desk, working, than you spend anywhere, you need to organize it in a way that not only improved your efficiency but also your productivity. Here are some desk organization tips for productivity:
You probably don’t need half of the stuff that is taking up your valuable space. You may adopt a habit of removing nonessential items and placing them into the drawers at the beginning of the week. Then put back the stuff needed one by one. This way, only the stuff you need to complete a task will be present at the desk. Anything that stays in your drawer at the end of the week is all the useless stuff, you should find a new home for them.
The best method of organizing your desk depends on how you operate in your work settings. You can experiment with different arrangements and patterns until you find the one that fits your schedules and patterns.
Stress levels tend to increase when you have to sign and spread out paperwork but you don’t have the space for it. Designating a portion of your desk as a no-parking zone may get you into a habit of saving that space for such paperwork.
There may be too many things around and on your desk competing for your attention. Too many sticky notes may also keep your attention diverted. These distractions will make it hard for you to concentrate on what truly is important hence these need be eliminated.
Cluttered workspaces are mostly dominated by paper. You should migrate your calendars, to-do lists and memos to your computer or phone than to keep it on your desk. This will increase your efficiency and productivity as these apps will also give you reminders. Get into a habit of giving your desk, keyboard, monitor and phones a regular clean up session. A dust-free work area not only improve your mood but also boosts the productivity.
