National clean off your desk day

Look at that mess. You have files everywhere. You have phone numbers written down on sticky notes. Random facts and figures with no idea of where they belong.

TIME TO CLEAN IT UP!!!

Welcome to Nation Clean Off Your Desk Day! The one day a year put aside to get things in order. It goes well with our start your year off the right way campaign. If you are more organized and know where things are, you can be a lot more effective and productive. 

If a client comes in to your office to meet you and sees a nice work area, they are more likely to work with you. You appear to have your act together. If you receive a phone call, imagine how much faster you will be able to answer your client's questions if you are not digging through piles looking for something.

So get cleaning! Get a fresh start. You will be amazed how much better you feel looking at less mess.

To clean my desk I will need a large metal container, some kerosene and a book of matches.....that maybe a little extreme, but you get the point.  Nice post and a good reminder to all of us.
All best,

I didn't even know there was a National Clean off Your Desk Day.  I'll have to put that on my calendar as an annual occurrence.

Not only is the desk full of stuff, but the "desktop" on the computer.  Mine has at least 15 post it notes waiting for my attention.
