精簡生活小招

Tidy up your desk

整理辦公桌

Do you find it difficult to work on your desk or find office supplies when you need them?

是不是覺得桌上亂得無法做事？是不是在需要時怎么也翻不到某個物品？

Remove old sticky notes, outdated papers and notes,junk mail, magazines, as well as any obvious trash and wrappers from your workspace.

那就趕緊清理掉辦公室里的過期便利貼、紙頭便條、垃圾郵件、雜志，還有各種礙眼的雜物和包裝紙吧。

Corral office supplies such as pens, paper clips and pushpins in small decorative containers, or store items in flat storage bins or trays in your desk drawers.

把鉛筆、回形針、圖釘等文具用品放到一個小盒子里，或者將物品歸類到抽屜里的收納盒中。

Don't forget to chuck any broken office supplies or dead plants that are on your desk or sitting in your office.

別忘了扔掉辦公桌或辦公室里壞掉的文具和枯死的植物！
