Why Do We Clutter?
Posted in GTD, Productivity |
Welcome back! It's good to see you again. Please note that I am now publishing all new material at my hub site: StephenPSmith.com
Please take a look at this post from Rolf Katzenberger’s Evomend:
Why is it so hard to keep a place or a room free of clutter? Why do empty surfaces fill up with clutter, instantly? Why do items start to gather at the very places we’ve just cleaned a moment ago, as if moved by a ghost’s hand?
It’s about more than just clearing and cleaning.
When we clean places up, we want to believe we’re creating free space. However, we’re just creating a vacuum. What’s the difference?
I have been reading Rolf’s blog for a while, and just noticed that he’s not on my blogroll! Well, I fixed that. Check out Evomend and the other recommended Links.
