Tidy up one messy drawer or workspace area to improve focus and efficiency.

A cluttered workspace can clutter your mind. Taking a few minutes to organize one area—like your desk drawer—can help you feel more focused and ready to tackle the year ahead.

• Sort and Simplify: Remove everything from the drawer, group similar items, and decide what to keep, toss, or donate.
• Use Dividers or Containers: Simple organization tools make it easier to maintain a tidy space.
• Keep Essentials Accessible: Prioritize frequently used items like pens, sticky notes, and chargers.
