Great, huh? Roll up your sleeves and let’s tidy up your space in 15minutes.
Tip 1; Put Those Cords In Check
Cords, though are essential to keep your gadgets connected and powered, they can be annoying as well. Poor dangling tangling devils. To get them off your way, unplug all cords before you start the cleaning process. Here’s a golden nugget. If you find one or two reasons to minimize the number of cords in your space, opt for wireless gadgets. Amazon Alexa for a start. Otherwise, find a way to group your cords so they don’t lie loosely everywhere.
Tip 2; Maximize Your Garbage Space
If you don’t have private garbage for your office already, now is the best time to grab one. And if you already have a small one, maximize your garbage space by opting for something bigger. The result? You will stop having a cluttered desk. Not only that but with a bigger garbage space, you can minimize the travel distance coverages and time spent in disposing of your wastes in the dumpster.

Tip 3; Simplifying Your Drawers
One way you unknowingly untidy your home working space is by rushing through all your drawers to find a document. To avoid that, do this. Add tags to your drawers by putting an inscription each on pieces of paper tape. The inscriptions should not only name the groups of files or documents you have in each drawer but must also neatly bear the name of files in each group. Golden nugget; always use the top drawer to save the files and instruments that you use more daily than others.
Tip 4; Opt For A Practical Desk
Time to let go of that unserving couple’s desk. If you prefer organizing your documents on paper trays, opt for a desk that aligns with that. Otherwise, get a desk with just the number of drawers you need, with each providing a bit more than the needed space. An unnecessarily large desk will only eat up your space and make your office get untidy faster. Likewise, a ridiculously small desk will give you the excuse to drop litter on the floor.
Tip 5; Maintain Regularly
Other than making sure of tidying up your space after use always, endeavor to never miss a weekend’s maintenance.
