Creating a desktop work flow process will help you be more efficient so you can focus on your projects rather than feel overwhelmed by desktop clutter.

Customize your folders and desktop icons helps you to quickly and easily locate your favorite applications, the projects you are working on, and your most important files and folders.

Rapidly finding and identifying the files you are looking for speeds up your work and reduces stress.

Workflow Desktop Icons

• It contains the Inbox icon (shown above) for your “collection buckets” such as your folder for downloads, your folder for brainstorming, URLs you’re saving, images and loose ideas that need to be processed.
• The TO-DO icon (a clipboard) can be used for “next actions.
• The Doing icon (a gear) for “active projects”
• The pending icon (an hourglass) for “waiting for” and
• The archive icon for “completed projects”.

This method works excellently for David Allen’s Getting Things Done (or GTD) action management method but also for personal methods of staying productive and organized in a simple way.
