Organizing

At work, I have things so well organized they can almost run without me. There are a lot of perks to setting things up with a great schedule, good forms to work from and a 'rhythm' to what you do. The actual setting up gets your mind working, which is fun, and lets you realize what you need in the job. It also allows you to roll with additional punches. When a pile more work hits you, you can see how to fit it in and get it done without missing out on the normal stuff.

Being organized also helps you to see what is missing, helps the work go faster and more efficiently and keeps you much calmer. Some jobs can't be that well organized because of the nature of the work or the boss's temperament. But if you are as well organized as possible, it can be much less stressful.
