The first step to achieving home office organization is to establish a filing system that works best for you. This allows you to keep track of your paperwork instead of having piles of papers sitting throughout your home office. You also want to work out a system that helps to eliminate the clutter from your home office. Establish a rule that only work related items can enter your office, with only the necessary items out in plain sight. The only items that should remain on your desk at all times should include your computer, phone, current project paperwork, and a pen.
