Feng Shui your desk
Why feng shui your desk you ask? Because it is a piece of furniture that you probably use quite often, and because it's where important financial decisions are usually made. If your desk isn't optimally serving you, it could be robbing you of your vital energy.
Desk size
First of all, the size of your desk it is crucial. Big tasks need a big desk. Don't try to multitask on a single-task desk. If it's annoying you, and you feel unusually cluttered, it's probably too small.
Desk style
Think about the style of your desk and what it is projecting. Are you a fierce corporate lawyer but your desk says, 'I'm a coffee table currently posing as a desk'? I doubt that your life as a corporate lawyer could continue with this type of desk because in the world of feng shui, your environment mirrors who you really are and what you think about yourself.
Paper clutter
Now, let's talk about clutter and organisation. Here's the obvious: It's easy to fall prey to paper clutter. But everything should have its own space - this includes your desktop and the floor around your desk. Think files, trays, drawers, bins, etc. At least 50 percent of your desktop should be seen at least once a day. If that hurts to hear, you need to look under 'Organising Services' in the Yellow Pages.
