Agree.
Disagree this follows. Works different for me. I'm with apocryphal Einstein, "If a cluttered desk is a sign of a cluttered mind, of what, then, is an empty desk a sign?" If my desk is clear, it's a sure sign I am being real unproductive and procrastinating hard on something. When I am on a roll, the papers pile up.
One place I worked had a clear desk policy. Desk had to be totally empty every night. I hated it. Got nothing done. Quit that gig to go work somewhere they cared more what I got done than how my desk looked.
Other people vary!
TrE still has a good point if you define "clutter" in terms of how hard it is for you to find an item, regardless of what the desk looks like to an outside observer.
Fair point. Works differently for everyone, but at least one should reflect on the state of their desk once in a while.
I do not understand your need to post this comment anonymously.
