Workspace Makeover - 5 Simple Ways to Become More Efficient in Your Home Office

OK, so you know I'm going to tell you to clean your workspace and get organized.  But, you already figured that one out when you spent a half hour looking for that form you needed and then another 15 minutes trying to find the phone number you put on that green sticky note (or was it on the back of a green envelope?).

Lamp Tables With Drawers

Either way, your efficiency is going downhill quickly and you really need to get this work completed today.  Working in a home office can become overwhelming sometimes.  It's too easy to let things pile up and clutter your workspace until you are confined to six inches of open space on either side of your keyboard.  We've all been there with piles of folders, sticky notes, mail, passwords written on random papers, photos, cups, and various other "absolutely must haves" crowding our work environment.

Lamp Tables With Drawers

A cluttered workstation hampers our ability to think clearly and creatively.  We become inefficient, mentally as well as physically.  We waste time, get confused, overwhelmed and lose our motivation. Our productivity becomes hostage to the mess. 

An efficiently organized home office can provide you with the foundation to make more money online because clearing the clutter will help you feel in control, energetic and clear thinking.  You'll get more work done, more effectively, and you will make more money. 

Here are 5 simple ways to makeover your workspace and become super efficient in the process:

1.     Clear out and clean everything. Clutter attracts clutter.  Actually schedule time to completely clear off your office desk and surrounding work area.  If you have a table nearby, clear that too. Move larger piles into another room until you have time to deal with them. Use a spray cleaner to wash down the desk and table area. Wash windows.  Wipe down your computer and keyboard.  Take everything off of your bulletin board.  Remove from the room all plants and non-work related items like cups, and bottles of water, pictures, do-dads, etc.  Do not store boxes of toys, clothes, and old furniture in your office.  Toss anything you no longer need. Really make an effort to create an "empty" space. 

2.    Start Fresh. Open the windows. Arrange your computer or laptop, files, file cabinets, desk supplies in an orderly manner on your clean new desk area.  Find a soft lamp to infuse light throughout the room.  A very important element to your home office is a comfortable office chair.  If you don't have one, now is the time to pamper yourself. If you are comfortable, you will be able to work longer and more efficiently.

3.    Go Green.  Add plants, move your desk near a window or into a more inspiring location.  Set up computers, printers, and all electronics with an energy efficient power strip. Put images of outdoors and nature on your wall.

4.    Inspire.  On your desk and windowsill, use the power of three to inspire you.  Three pictures of kids, friends, family, etc.  Three plants to add fresh oxygen to your workspace such as a Money Tree and Lucky Bamboo, and ivy.  Three quotes about money and motivation.

5.    Less is More.  Aim for a Zen quality to your workspace.  Only that which you need in the moment should be on your desk.  All books and reference materials should be on a bookcase.  Everything else goes back to its home (file cabinets, drawers, folders).   Take out one project at a time. 

Your space reflects your commitment to perform well.  At the end of each workday, commit to putting everything away and leaving your workspace neat, clean and ready for productivity the next day.  You'll be pleasantly surprised at how much more work you get done.  You'll feel less stressed and more motivated to take on additional tasks. 

Make a commitment to succeed today.
