你知道自己的工作风格吗？了解自己的工作风格可以让你有的放矢、更好地改善工作、提高效率，也就免受工作烦心之苦啦！

According to professional organizer Monica Ricci, there are about four basic work styles that most people fall into. Identify your style, and you'll know how to best organize your work life, she says. Peter talks with Monica about the four work personas and how to overcome the organization challenges they face in order to be more productive and less stressed out.

The Planner 善做计划者

This is someone who's organized, reliable and has a great work ethic¹ (工作道德，职业操守).

* Challenge: The planner's problem is that she tends to keep everything and suffer from information overload², Monica says.

* Solution: Remember to purge³ and get rid of excess paper on a regular basis. Destroy confidential⁴ materials with a crosscut shredder.

The Perfectionist 完美主义者

Like the planner, the perfectionist has an excellent work ethic.

* Challenge: Assuming no one can will do as good a job as she can, the perfectionist is afraid to delegate tasks and can become overwhelmed, Monica says.

* Solution: Find trusted resources you can delegate to so you can have a great delegation⁵ experience to build on. Hire an outside service to do certain projects for you if necessary, she says.

The Go-Getter 大忙人

The go-getter's can-do attitude means he's always on the move and always busy.

* Challenge: Since the go-getter is often traveling for work, his information is scattered⁶, perhaps on different computers and lots of little notes, Monica says.

* Solution: It's all about consolidation—get a three-ring binder⁷ and store all your important information in one spot, Monica says. Consolidate⁸ electronic documents on a portable flash drive, she says.

The Procrastinator⁹ 拖沓者

The procrastinator is well-intentioned. 拖沓者没有恶意。

* Challenge: Late to meet deadlines, the procrastinator can't get her head around the concept of time. "It's very abstract," Monica says. "So they run out of time, all the time."

* Solution: Make time concrete by creating timelines on paper and using a color-coded planner. Track where you spend your time, and break up tasks into a series of small deadlines.
