In many respects, organization can be critical to being successful. When you are organized, you can find items or files more easily and quickly, which can lead to increased efficiency and reduced stress. The more efficient you are, the more time you can free up to work on other things, thus you increase your productivity. If you can make that happen, your manager and company will value you even more.

Personally, I have always been naturally organized. It might have something to do with being a Virgo. Or, it might have to do with the fact that I get incredibly frustrated with myself when I cannot find something. So, I always put things in the same spot around my home and my desk so I can locate them easily, like my house keys, work keys, headphones, wallet, and so on.

If you are not the type of person that stays constantly organized, here are some things you can do to get yourself organized at work that will help reduce frustration levels and make you a highly-productive rockstar on the job!
