TIPS
Three M's
Minimize – (purge, recycle or donate)
Maximize – (the way you use your space)
Maintain – (continue to implement the first 2 points)
Example cleaning schedule for your work place
Monday: Wipe down desk, phone, keyboard and back of your computer. Respond to and clear out voicemails. Check supplies.
Tuesday: Look through binders and hanging files to see what needs to be labeled, what can be stored electronically and what can be shredded.
Wednesday: (you get the idea!)
Remember, the important part is to plan your work and work your plan! The main thing is to have a system in place and stick to it. If it doesn’t work for you, reassess your situation and implement another plan.
