Keeping Desk Neat

How does one exactly keep a desk clutter free?  Truth is, it has been a real personal challenge for a long time. What makes sense is to really choose to keep a clutter free desk by providing boxes for your clutters.  Label them accordingly and you will see, even as you make sure you put them in its proper places at the end of each day, it will become a habit.  

An old box or get yourself a DIY from old shoe box and cover it up with old magazine pages or gift wrappers. :-)
