Some kids couldn’t wait for the last day of school so they could clean out their backpacks and toss all their subject folders. Me on the other hand? I dreamt of the beginning of fall because it meant stocking my backpack with fresh notebooks, pencils, and erasers galore. Back-to-school season was my favorite time of the year, and if I’m being honest, it still is (even though I’m a full-grown adult with a full-time job). I still make a list of all the things I need and want for my work bag and my desk, head to the store, and show off my new planner to my desk mates (OK, my coworkers). With that said, rounding up a list of must-have fall desk essentials, with a purple sparkly pen in hand, is a job that I feel incredibly qualified to do.
As you shift your focus back onto your desk this season and set your eyes on your end-of-year career goals, consider this your best opportunity to restock your must-haves, invest in quality essentials that will enhance your workday, and treat yourself to something that will make you smile through your busiest weeks. Ahead, a list of back-to-work desk essentials that will excite you for the season ahead.
