Justification....................................

If one looks long enough, one can find a book or a study to support about anything.  Just in time comes this report justifying my (sometimes often) messy desk:

"It also fits with the advice from Eric Abrahamson – co-author of A Perfect Mess: The Hidden Benefits of Disorder – who says people with highly ordered desks often struggle to find things because their filing systems are so complicated. He also points out a key advantage to a mess – you can find things in it that you didn’t expect. Discovering that ground-breaking idea you scribbled on a piece of paper two years ago could be just the spark to get your next project off the ground."

Full blog post on work space perfection, from whence the above came, can be found here.  Love the Einstein quote, "If a cluttered desk is a sign of a cluttered mind, of what, then, is an empty desk a sign?"

  1. You are not even on the same field as me Mr. Layman. Or League for that matter. Practice a little more before you start telling the world that your desk is messy. E.
