The 3 Types of Cubicles
The 3 Types of CubiclesIve worked in a menagerie of cube environments. The closely packed closet-sized bullpen, the waist-high pens, the shoulder-height screens, the office with an actual DOOR, the glorified conference room with an open plan. and at different times, I have made all of the choices discussed by Ceren Cubukcu over at PersonalBrandingBlog.So whats going on in your cube? Is it the image you want to project to your office?The Blank and Bare CubicleMaybe it is a haven of Zen-centered calm, maybe youre just on the quiet side, but also maybe youre a serial killer. Or as Ceren puts it much more nicely, a bare space may be sending the message that youre new, not planning to stay long, or halfway out the door already (impending departure is the only reason I have ever had a clean desk, ever).Ifyoure easily distracted, or prefer to keep your personal life separateI get it But perhapstheres a picture or two you could hang up just to give your eyes somewhere to rest and reassure yo ur neighbor that youre not a flight risk.The Fun CubicleThis was ALWAYS me. At once point, at my first job, I had an entire wall of Mets paraphernalia, a zen jupe garden, a candy bowl that I had painted, a ninja turtle, two modern art calendars, a slinky, a couple of beanie babies, and pictures of my family, my cat, and the Manhattan skyline (which could be seen from any conference room window). At the time I thought it showed coworkers that I was fun and friendly and encouraged people to stop by and chat. Also it kept my easily distracted brain moving forward, somewhat counter-intuitively, by giving me things to fidget with.But in retrospect it also made me look immature and unfocused (plus, after a few months, the candy bowls presence was seriously compromised by the coffee breath of the office rambler). So by all means, make your desk a reflection of who you arebut a gentle, tasteful reflection.The sticky note Notes CubicleThis is the high-powered cube of a person with a plan. Or an action-packed schedule. Or a workaholism issue. To avoid a cube that looks like the shed of a conspiracy theorist, consider breaking up your organizational tools with more personal photos or restrict the planning to a whiteboard or bulletin board. There are also some great apps that may help you translate your paper clutter to digital clutterand integrate it into your calendar too

5 Things Successful People Do at Work Each Week Before the End of Tuesday
5 Things Successful People Do at Work Each Week Before the End of Tuesday Ever wonder how successful people kick off the beginning of their weeks? Mondays are inevitably full of clearing out the inbox in which theyre likely already drowning digging themselves out of last weeks leftovers in order to get going on the week ahead. And thats why Tuesdays are a truer start to the week.What you do on Tuesday will affect the rest of your week, for better or worse. Heres what objectively successful people do on Tuesdays in order to make sure that theyre impacting their week ahead for the better.1. They meditate before work.A wealth of research suggests that meditation has innumerable health benefits, like relieving stress that can manifest both mentally and physically. Besides relieving the stresses that may arise after Monday (read a flooded inbox and countless calendar invites for meetings to talk about more meetings), meditation can also help you to get organized. Thats because, through m editation, you can explore your thoughts in a constructive, intentional way. And, of course, getting organized before diving into a new weeks worth of work is hugely important.2. They eat a healthy, energizing breakfast.Successful people understand that breakfast is an important meal and eating a healthy, energizing breakfast can be the difference between crossing one thing off the to-do list or crossing several things off the to-do list. In other words, successful people are oftentimes (not always) morning people who, at the very least, make the time to sit down and eat a fueling meal.3. They make any necessary revisions to their already prioritized to-do list.Successful people are those who make to-do lists on Friday for the week ahead. That said, when they get to the arbeitszimmer on Monday morning (to that flooded inbox and influx of calendar invites), they need to be ready and adaptable to change. Chances are that theyre going to have to shift their schedule around, at least a bit. Making a to-do list, of course, helps you put your week ahead in perspective and manage your time more wisely but Tuesdays are likely when youll have to sit down and revisit (and potentially reorganize) your priorities for the week.4. They hole themselves up to put their heads down and get to it.Because Mondays usually involve a lot of catching up, Tuesdays should involve a lot of productive hours. Successful people know how to turn off from the bro mayhem for at least a few hours in order to spend time alone actually getting their work done. This may mean locking themselves up in their offices and actually shutting their doors, or it may just mean keeping Tuesdays closed off to meetings so they can put their heads down for a few hours of solid work.5. They tackle the weeks biggest priority.Successful people are adept at prioritizing their tasks, and they know that getting the biggest one out of the way early makes the rest of the week a whole lot easier. They also understand that bigger responsibilities may require more time, so they get started tackling those tasks first in case the work needs to carry over throughout the week. Theyre not necessarily working harder than others in the office rather, theyre working smarter.--AnnaMarie Houlis is a feminist, a freelance journalist and an adventure aficionado with an affinity for impulsive solo travel.
