Organization at the office
Start from scratch. Clean out all of your drawers and junk on your desk and put it in a box. Go back to work. Add stuff back little by little.
Find a place for the stuff you bring back, not thrown everywhere
Evaluate whether you really need an item or not. Are you keeping it because you need it or MIGHT need it?
