Messy desk

Einstein: “If a cluttered desk is a sign of a cluttered mind, of what, then, is an empty desk a sign?”



This is what my desk looks like right now.

Do you have a messy desk? Or do you like to keep your space clean and well organized?

I'm a little of both. I tend to build up on the messiness for days/weeks at a time, but just as I get to the breaking point of having only a 12x12 inch space left to create on, I tidy up.

It turns out, this is not necessarily a bad thing.

I found this post titled "Why You Should Have a Messy Desk". Hop on over and take a quick read. It sure made me feel less guilty for the messes I create!

My take home lesson: "People with a messy desk were more prone to creativity and risk taking, while people at cleaner desks tended to follow strict rules and were less likely to try new things or take risks"

I'm a risk taker, not a slob.
