...things that directly spark joy, those that provide functional joy, and those that lead to future joy. These are your criteria for choosing what to keep in your workspace.
• Current projects, with a subfolder for each project. (You should try to keep these to no more than ten. After all, how many of us are simultaneously working on more than ten projects? If you are, you'll learn in the next chapter how to tidy your time.)
• Records, which contain policies and procedures you regularly access. Usually, these files are provided by others and you typically don't modify them. Examples include legal and employee files.
• Saved work, which consists of documents from past projects that you'Il use the future

...encourage participation. You invited people to make contributions, and there's no faster way to demoralize a group of people than to keep talking yourself. Make it clear from the very start that your goal is to bring out everyone's ideas—and not have everyone just listen to you or agree with everything you say. When leaders talk too much, it slows down decision-making, lowers productivity, and leads to worse decisions overall.
• Decide a theme color for coordinating items on your desk.
• Choose a favorite movie or story as a theme for decorating your workspace.
• Find photos online to decorate your desk area.
• Place a small potted plant on your desk.
• Display a photo that brings back joyful memories.
• Add something sparkly, such as a crystal or glass paperweight.
• Keep a small aroma item on your desk that will give just your space a special fragrance.
• Place a beautiful candle on your desk as a decoration.
• Choose a favorite coaster for your drink.
• Change the background on your desktop computer to reflect each season.
