How a decluttered desk turned my week around

I never realized how much clutter was draining me until I cleared my workspace last Monday. No joke. I found stuff I hadn't touched in over a year. I found my Dior watch that I haven't seen in so long and already blamed everyone in the house for. Since then, I've been more focused, knocked out tasks faster, and even felt less anxious. If you've been stuck in a fog, maybe it's time to ditch the pile-up. :)
 
It's wild how much mental space clutter can take up. Finding that watch must have felt like a mini treasure hunt too. I agree, clearing the space clears the mind!
 
IMO Minimalism is overrated, sometimes clutter sparks creativity and comfort. Obsessive tidying can turn into procrastination or stress itself and not everyone thrives in a sterile workspace; some need a bit of chaos to feel alive...like me, I guess

This sounds like something a lazy person would say because they're too lazy to pick things up.

@September A while back I found that a clean desk is the one where I'm fully focused and get things done a lot faster. Nothing to distract me, nothing to touch, just the things I need for work.
