Picture of my office
Yesterday I posted that it is a good idea to 'Organise Yourself For Success' http://bit.ly/1OaeAQc and have since thought it wise to show you that I do what I profess, so here is a picture of my desk.
O.K. so I could have emptied the waste paper bin but I am only human:-)
Incidentally, you will notice that I have 2 monitors and I must say that since I have been able to use these together, it has made my life a lot easier since I can work on a word document on the left hand screen before I copy & paste it into my blog etc. on the right.
I did not go out and spend a fortune on a new screen as my daughter was no longer needing her's, she gave it to me. I'm sure you can find a cheap one on Ebay etc. and I know you will be glad you got a second screen when you see how simple it makes life.

Great job and good advice on the two screens. I use a similar set-up and it is very productive. Well done.
Roger,
I have a small work area, no room for second monitor. I use split screen that is available for Windows 10.

I'm sure Windows 10 is Ideal John! We all have to work within the time, space and affordability available to us.
Roger
If you open two or more windows, use the top bar to move one to the upper left corner of the screen. You can work one and read other.
John
I just don't have room for second monitor. Have an small desk area. My printer is on a shelf above the monitor.

I love your office Roger. Is it a big job to hook up the two screens? I need to get myself a bigger desk - everything looks so easy in your photo. Good for you!!
Hooking up 2 screens was much easier than I thought Brenda as all you have to do is a search via Google "How to connect 2 PC monitors" and you get the answer: http://bit.ly/1glFl5u
A bigger desk can simply just be a work surface and I can remember making my first one years ago because I couldn't afford to buy one:-)
Believe me when I say 'It IS much easier when everything is uncluttered". I can lay my hands on a bill, document, file, or photo within seconds if needed. Once you get organised, it becomes so much simpler... just keep everything in the place you have made for it.
Good luck,
Roger
You are so right Roger, I'm going to sort my stuff out over the next week or so. Then the mind should be clear too after getting rid of all of that clutter.
You are right Brenda, life is honestly much simpler when you can find anything you want within a matter of seconds.
Just clear ALL your paperwork from your desk every evening and keep adapting that priority list every day.
Good luck,
Roger
Same here Rog. 2 screens makes things so much easier.
Nice blog yesterday by the way. I organised my PC Bookmark Bar more efficiently due to your comments. Cheers

Well Roger, you said you would organize and I see you have done so! What a great feeling it must be to have at least that part of the business in some type of organized state! Great job!
