Tidy up your desk. Store things in the drawers and cabinets. Make sure the folders and binders are properly labeled so that you can easily retrieve whatever documents you need. You will immediately notice that once everything is arranged orderly, you will feel less overwhelmed and so much more focused on the tasks at hand!
5. Create the Right Environment
This perfectly compliments the previous step. Once your office space is tidy and organized, make it a place that you look forward to calling your own for 8 hours a day. This could mean decorating the walls or your cubicle. If you have your own office room, invest in shelves and place items on it that are a reflection of your personality and interests, such as books, toys, and knicknacks. Do you get work done better when you put the headphones on and listen to soothing music? That’s another environmental tweak that can help motivate you!
