484: The Top 5 Ways to Clear a Desk
Making Your Work Day Work For You
If you work outside of your home, or even if you have a home office, you know how hard it can be to keep a clear desk. Our desks often seem to be the catch-all for anything we aren’t sure what to do with. If you’re like the rest of us, your desk quickly gets out of control with clutter. You can tame this clutter monster too! Join Kathi and Tonya today as they discuss how to have and keep a clear desk by:
- Determining what you actually need
- Sort it out, clean it up, and label it
- Leave yourself a roadmap

The November 30 Day 1K will take place in the Clutter Free Academy Group!
