Spring cleaning is a rumored activity of the past and let’s face it, your desk could use a proper cleaning. Opening your windows to the fresh Spring air is a good reminder for you to quit putting it off and get it done.
Here’s what I recommend:
- Completely empty the desk surface. Remove EVERYTHING.
- Dust, then wash your desk. Better yet, disinfect it as much as possible.
- Start putting things back, cleaning them as you replace each object.
- Put only the most essential objects back on your desk.
- Put everything else away somewhere else, everything that’s not essential, that you don’t need right now to do your work. Or discard them.
Then enjoy, for a brief moment, your clean desk.
Then get back to writing.
