STEP BY STEP FOR ORGANIZING YOUR OFFICE

LET'S GET STARTED

  • frdln1a

    STEP 1: Start with one cabinet at a time! Start sorting through things in that cabinet. Now make boxes that say:

    TO DONATE
    TO TRASH
    TO THINK ABOUT
    TO STORE
    TO KEEP

    The key in organizing is to make it fun & not to overwhelm yourself. As you go through your cabinets, sort things into your boxes.

    TO DONATE: When you are finished, immediately take your boxes for donation to your car & take them to the place you're donating or call the place you are donating to and arrange for them to pick up your stuff.

    TO TRASH: Take your trash out immediately & don't look back!

    TO THINK ABOUT: Now - there is your think about it box. If you haven't used it in the past year - then my motto is "LOSE IT!"

    TO STORE: Go out and buy some storage containers, preferably clear ones with a lid. Walmart always seems to have the best price on these, sometimes Target. Put your stuff in the containers & make a label on the end of the container that says what it is. Now take it to your basement, garage, storage shed, or wherever you store your stuff & stack it neatly.

    TO KEEP: Now we are left with the stuff that you want to keep!

    STEP 2: Now let's take all the stuff that you have left to keep and start organizing it into categories of like items. Here are some categories I used in doing my office and my friend, Jill's office:

    -Batteries
    -Cards
    -Computer Paper, Labels, Photo Paper
    -Computer Ribbons
    -Dry Erase Markers
    -Envelopes
    -Highlighters
    -Paper Clips & Misc. Clips
    -Pencils
    -Pens
    -Permanent Markers
    -Post It Notes
    -Rubberbands
    -Stapler, Stapler Refills, & Stapler Remover

    Take your like items and start organizing them into your containers.

    STEP 3: When you're done place the containers in your desk or your office and enjoy your organized space!!! Remember one little thing: If you get it out - put it back!!! It takes just 30 days to make a new habit or break an old one! Also, it takes the same time to get something out and to put something back. A picked up space looks like a clean space to others eyes!

    This is a GREAT site! I've been involved in Office Organization most of my professional life, and I've been a Squidoo Lensmaster since the beginning...and I have to say that this is a Great lens! You've done a really nice job here!

    I have a few 'organizing' lenses myself...I see yours as a great inspiration!

WHY IS JOHN316 MY USER NAME?

JOHN 3:16
  • "For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in Him, should not perish, but have everlasting life."

    WOW - this verse says it all! God was willing to give His only Son to die on the cross for our sins, so that each of us would have the opportunity to accept Jesus into our hearts & accept the free gift of salvation. We just have to ask Him! If we ask Him & believe with all our hearts - He promises us a home with Him in heaven when we die. It's so easy that even a child can accept this gift. If you're reading this & accept Jesus into your heart - please sign my guestbook & let me know!

    God Bless You!
    Much Love - Stacey
