Desk organization
- Get rid of all trash and clean your desk daily (3 minutes max)
On your clean desk you must have:
- Cup or bottle of water
- Snack
- Paper, pen and whatever else you might be virtually using
- Clock or timer
Avoid having too many things on your desk at once. Keep only the essentials.
Studying material organization
This includes:
- Texbooks and notebooks
- Stationery
Make sure to arrange all of your textbooks in a way that you can read all of the titles and grab what you need quickly. Also, hold pens and pencils separately and keep a box for your stationery (such as post its).
Bag organization
- Clean your bag(s) at least once a week and get rid of trash.
Make sure you are only carrying the essentials, such as:
- Phone
- Wallet
- Chargers
- Keys
- Sunglasses/glasses
- Snack
If you spend a lot of time on public transportation, make sure you always have a book with you.
Bedroom organization
- Instead of cleaning your bedroom for 6 hours once a month, clean a little bit of it for 10-15 minutes daily.
- Store different things on different places. I recommend having a box for every kind of object.
- Instead of having lots of papers with you, keep them on your computer.
I hope this little post was helpful. I know there are a lot of points that weren’t covered. I will write another post on organization asap.
