No time to organize your office? Follow these daily steps to organize
and then maintain your office.
(article continued below ...)
1. On Mondays, de-clutter your office. Remove at least one item which
you don't use at least monthly. Take those personal items off your desk.
Throw away pens that don't work. Reduce your ketchup/salt/napkin supply
by 90%.
2. On Tuesdays, take inventory. Review your supplies and make a list
or place an order. Take a few minutes to look through an office supply
catalog. You'll find a myriad of useful organizing items.
3. Think on Wednesdays. How can you make better use of your computer?
Can you develop a spreadsheet to help organize some aspect of your job?
Do you need to find and register for a computer class? Do it today.
4. Thursday is sorting day. Go through all those business cards and
small pieces of paper which have accumulated throughout the week. Put
them where they belong. Also put away any reference materials you've
been using.
5. Have fun filing on Fridays. End your week by cleaning up all the
paper lying around your office. Purge your files. Have a mean and clean
filing system which you can actually use.
Then have a wonderful weekend.
