Excuses like, “I just work here” do not work anymore and should not be used as a reason to avoid arranging those piles up paper work, that chaotic table of yours and those folders stacked up in the corner. To make it easier for you to work, you need an environment that is both cozy, spacious and stress free. Clutter and trash causes that constricted as well as suffocating feeling. To avoid that unnecessary sinking feeling as you go through piles and piles of corporate paperwork, try doing the following tips to help you organize your office stuff. Make sure that you clean each drawer in your desk. This allows any inefficiently used space to become relevantly more available.
Do not forget to clear any objects away from your desk. Take it out of your sight if it is irrelevant to your day-to-day office existence. Or at least keep them out of sight if you do not have to use it as much as that office stapler or Post-it note. Only essential items should be on your table such as your ready name card file, telephone, and fax machine. If you are working with another person, it is possible for your files to mix. Use a box for each of your files to sort out which files are for whom. It saves so much time rather than sorting through papers. Use appropriate containers for each item. This makes it easier for you to retrieve which object is suited for this or that particular task minus the hassle of going through drawers. It is so much easier to pick out that paper clip in your paper clip container rather than looking for one under your table or beneath your computer monitor. Pens should go with pens, etc. Your personal papers; that credit card bill, the car insurance form, etc., should be kept in a separate drawer as often as possible. This helps to avoid finding, looking for and blaming others or yourself for a hard to find form when you were sitting on it all along. Use colors for your files. This makes finding information a lot easier. Color coding all those files dated 5 or more years ago as yellow and those urgent files as red is one way to put your mind at ease when the boss wants this 1999 record, etc. But do not overstuff the folders that you will be using. Also, do not load filing drawers with more than these drawers can handle. In the end, it will not be difficult for you to find the information when you really need it.
