Step one: empty the desk
Start from nothing. Clear the surface completely, then add back only what you used in the past week.
Step two: solve light and height
A lamp and a laptop stand are the two purchases that affect every hour you spend at the desk.
Step three: hide the cables
Route everything along one edge and clip it down.
Step four: add slowly
Give the setup a month before adding anything else.
