Is it possible for me to create new folders in My Documents?

Created By Me and Shared By Me are the 2 folders listed in My Documents. I'd like to be able to create my own folders there, but I don't see how. Is the option there and I just haven't figured out how to use it?
When I had the free version of OS, I didn't need to organize very much because I only had a few files. Now I have more files, and I'd like to start grouping some of those together in folders.

But I'm also confident that we won't see these crucial aspects "taken to scale" with such urgency as to be lacking in finesse...
This way same document can below to many 'folders' and it would be easy to include documents like 'nuts&bolts' into any project where used so that you see instantly all the documents of the project.
I would also like to see a list of tabs without opening a document and click from list to directly open certain tab. And of course search will crawl through tab names along with other information of the document.
Better organisation of documents is a must for us.
