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.
