I love finding brand new ideas for organizing and problem solving, but sometimes the best ideas come from advice that stands the test of time. I found this bit of wisdom in a book I was reading.
Four Good Working Habits That Will Help Prevent Fatigue and Worry
- Clear your desk of all papers except those relating to the immediate problem at hand.
- Do things in order of their importance.
- When you face a problem, solve it then and there if you have the facts necessary to make a decision.
- Learn to organize, deputize, and supervise.

It is always fascinating to find such timeless advice. Gain more inspiration by exploring this incredibly addictive flickr pool of others creative workspaces. I love seeing how people have repurposed various objects to make their workspace work for them. Really, this ever growing site is seriously addictive; you probably don’t want to know how long I spent looking at these!
