Yesterday morning I walked into my office & it was a mess, because I didn’t take the time to tidy up the day before.
Have a look at this …
Most of you have heard the quote – “Cluttered desk is a sign of a cluttered mind”
And the other quote – “If a cluttered desk is a sign of a cluttered mind, what’s an empty desk is a sign of?” – Albert Einstein.
My kids do agree with Einstein, for obvious reasons.
For me, I like to have a tidy desk. I feel cluttered and cannot think straight when I have clutter on my desk. Saying that, I know of people working with so many piles of paper on their desks, but when they need something they exactly know where it is.
I believe it is a personal choice.
One thing to remember is not to make de-cluttering your office as an excuse for your procrastination. I know this because I have done this.
Some would say that organizing your office is not a productive task and you may want to do some marketing and lead generation during that time.
Yes, it is not directly productive and not a money making activity, but if you cannot think clearly with all the mess around you, it is necessary to clear it up before beginning any other productive task.
I believe, De-cluttering your MIND is more important than de-cluttering your desk. That’s a topic for another day!
