Why is a tidy workplace so important?

A tidy desk is like a blank canvas, ready to be filled with your ideas and inspiration. It creates an environment where you can easily focus on your tasks , without the distractions of clutter. Keeping your desk organized can help you work more efficiently and simply get more done in a day. In industry jargon, we call that: increasing your productivity.

A tidy desk means less stress and more satisfaction

Imagine this: instead of searching for that one pen among a pile of papers, you can get straight to work on your tasks. A tidy desk not only reduces physical clutter, but also mental clutter. It ensures that you get more peace in that upstairs room because the number of stimuli is reduced. And we can all use that, right?! The less stimuli, the less stress... That's as clear as a sugar cube ;-).

How to keep your workspace tidy? Desk tidying tips

So, now that we’ve emphasized the value of tidying up, let’s move on to the question: How?! We won’t leave you hanging with that question: The Perfect Desk to the rescue!

7 tips for a tidy desk

  1. Start with a clear desk: Clear everything off your desk and make a fresh start. This will give you a fresh base to work from.
  2. Sort your stuff: Divide all your stuff into categories, such as pens , papers, notebooks , etc. This will help you get organized and decide what to keep, throw away, or put away.
  3. Minimize: Be critical about what you really need on your desk. Try to get rid of unnecessary items or store them in drawers or organizers.
  4. Use storage solutions: Invest in handy (and pretty ;-)) storage solutions such as drawers, bins, baskets and organizers to keep your things tidy. Think of a pen tray , a letter tray for incoming and outgoing mail , and drawer dividers for papers .
  5. Take advantage of vertical space: Hang shelves or wall organizers above your desk to create extra storage space for books, folders, and decorative items.
  6. Give everything a fixed place: Assign each category of items a fixed place on your desk or in your storage solutions. That way you always know where to find something and you avoid clutter.
  7. Clean up regularly: Take time daily or weekly to clean up your desk and put everything back in its place. This will help you keep the clutter under control and prevent it from becoming chaotic again.

Your Perfect Desk with this habit

If you followed the above tips, you now have this basic in order ;-). But we don't stop there with our tips. We would like to give you the following tidying habit (is that a word? Yes, it is a word!) We advise you to take a few minutes every day, before you leave your workstation, to tidy up your desk. Here's how to do it:

  1. Set an alarm: Set a reminder on your phone or calendar to remind you to clean your desk at the end of each workday.

  2. Declutter: Take a few minutes to put away everything you used that day on your desk and return it to its place. Throw away trash and put used items back in their drawers or organizers.

  3. Clear your digital workspace: Close all unnecessary programs and documents on your computer and organize your digital files as needed. A tidy digital workspace also contributes to a sense of order and calm.

  4. Get ready for tomorrow : Take some time to prepare for the next day. Make a to-do list or planner for the next day and prepare any necessary documents or materials so you can hit the ground running the next morning.

By practicing this simple habit daily, you will find that you end your day not only organized, but also tidy, helping you to start the next day with a fresh start.
