1. Use available tools 2. Minimize printing 3. Organize documents in a folder structure with logical labels to facilitate finding them later
Most importantly - prioritize. Do the important stuff first and do it on time.

I print NOTHING because it serves no purpose and just seems to make everyone else less organized...
Aside from that I do all of my work in a strict order.
Organize your to-do list first by importance and then by due date. Use this order (1= most important)
1) Important and due soon 2) Important and not due soon 3) Not important and due soon 4) Not important and not due soon
Use a Calendar to track appointments, meetings, deadlines, projects, etc.
Keeping a time diary for a couple of days will tell you how you spend your time. You can then analyze your diary and find ways to improve efficiency.
Touch every piece of work only once (or at most twice). This means if you see an e-mail with a request from a colleague, you can either address it right away, or place it onto your to-do list. No procrastination allowed.
Keep current with your e-mails by keeping your inbox clear. If you are placing something onto your to-do list and the person e-mailing you needs a response, let them know that you have seen their e-mail and will respond by a certain date and time. This will both acknowledge them and keep you "honest" in following up on time.

Time management is the key; I always ensure I have one half hour free in the morning and another in the afternoon because I know there are always those little problems you were not counting on that will make a difference so I am prepared with time for those. Of course, email filtering is also one major key but I have managed to do that with several procedures including different accounts according with the priority of emails.

To Do list and calendars. At the end of each week I create a To Do list for the following week. Then at the end of each day I review it to see if I have accomplished what I should have. Also, get today's work out of the way. Don't let it spill over into the next day. Eventually, the glass will overflow. I also keep a legal pad handy to record any notes throughout the day to add to any upcoming To Do list. And lastly, make sure you have goals written down and constantly monitor these.
