7 things – the office

here are 7 things that can be minimalized in your office (home or away) today:

1. paper files – if you can, scan them to your computer. if not, sort and file.
2. bulletin board items – you’ve needed to declutter that for months anyway.
3. wall decorations – just keep 1 or 2 accent pieces (and maybe a clock)
4. physical desktop items – find a home out of sight for your stapler, tape, and paper clips.
5. computer desktop icons – remove unneccesary icons (or hide all of them)
6. your desk drawer – you know the one i’m talking about…
7. books – if you don’t use them, get rid of them.

honorable mention: pens/pencils
