Decluttering at Work

There is nothing worse than a cluttered workspace. Whether that refers simply to counter space, a desk, full office, or even a vehicle, keeping it decluttered will help you to function at maximum efficiency with the least amount of frustration and distractions.

Tasks like sorting and shredding paperwork, cleaning drinks and food off your workstation and keyboard, and vacuuming your floor can bring new life into your space.

Do you drive around all day? Give the same care to your vehicle, both inside and out. Remember, you are a representative of the company you work for. Make a good impression. This is even more important when you’re away from the office with your company logo embroidered on your shirt or wrapped around your work truck.

What about gossip and drama in the workplace? Decluttering these destructive behaviors is a must. Avoid competitive or jealous type games. Is there unhealthy vying for position or attention. Stay as far away from that as possible. And do your best to maintain only business related conversation. Even the most well-intentioned ‘counseling’ is best done outside of work, if at all.

Your personal effort and care has a lot to do with creating the environment you work in. Regardless of your position or title, opportunities to shine God’s light are everywhere. Promote excellence in all you do and bear great witness to his name. Your kingdom purpose is significant, both inside and outside of work.

What will you declutter? Dirt and grime, inefficiency, disrespect, drama, conflict, and a poor witness.
