Clutter is the enemy. Clutter can take over any area you allow it to go to. This includes both physical space you may move and live in and mental ‘space’ where you store and organize your ideas.
The less clutter you have, the clearer the path you have to get where you want to go and getting things done. It’s that simple, even if keeping the clutter at bay isn’t always easy.
A trick to keeping back the physical clutter is to take a few 5-minute tidy breaks a day. A trick to keeping back the mental clutter is to find a place to record your ideas and thoughts in an organized fashion.
Fighting back physical and mental clutter isn’t always easy, but the time spent in combat is always worth it.
