Today's TQ Challenge: Keep Work Area Well Organized.
Be METICULOUS! What items on your desk are finished and waiting to be put away?
Be ORGANIZED! Don't you feel less distracted when your work area is organized neatly?
Be EFFECIENT! Once your desk is clean and organized, why not make a commitment to keep it that way?
You'll never approach maximum productivity in a disorganized workspace. Make sure your work environment supports and assists you, rather than detracts and resists you. Keep it clean, orderly and well stocked. Invest in the best equipment and furnishings you can afford. Keep them in top condition. Remove anything that impedes your ability to stay at the top of your game. Add anything that improves your attitude or productivity.
