Do you need to get your motivation mojo back? Sometimes you are going to have to dig deep to find it, but it is there.  In the last several weeks, I have written a couple of blogs  that gave me the idea for this message. Once I read the August Cloudburst Contest requirements:

Declutter your workspace

You see that one in red, that was the one that motivated me tonight to write this.

You know what happens, I'm sure you have been there too.  You get distracted or pressured from family or friends then all of a sudden your business starts to suffer.  I have found to get back on track is to do some spring, winter, summer or fall cleaning.

 

So to combat office clutter use these helpful daily tasks to clear the deck and declutter your workspace.  So here are my suggestions for maintaining a clean work environment:

Always put everything in its place.
Keep files up to date, don't leave items in your in/out box

Don't let magazines or business publications pile up - read them and then throw them out or scan articles that you want to keep for future reference.

Those three items work to keep my space neat and orderly.  Without the clutter, I can focus on the task in front of me.

Getting back to work after a month of vacationing is hard to do as well. This post inspires me.

Kathy, I started decluttering yesterday afternoon. Despite throwing things out on an ongoing basis, I was surprised at the stuff that still accumulated. Now, if I could do the same with my hubby's stuff! :-)

Silvia, it does seem to accummulate.  I was amazed at the number of trash bags I was able to fill.

Hi Kathy -- there's something about tossing things that is quite invigorating -- for me, at least.  Good luck with the challenge!

I do this quite frequently. I find it hard to work on a cluttered desk. I need order!

Funny you write this now, Kathy ... as I've been stating categorically that I need to de-clutter my office.  I'm beginning to feel trapped!  You provide inspiration for my perspiration ...

Michael, I agree!

Hi Kathy - good advice. My office looked out of control lately - yesterday, I started getting things back in order. Not done yet, but I feel so much better. I can breath again. :)

Hi Kathy, I am working on the big Clutter clean out this month too, it sounds like you are doing a better job of it than I am though.
