My mind was always very cluttered, so I took great pains to simplify my environment, because if my environment were half as cluttered as my mind, I wouldn't be able to make it from room to room.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I don't like when I look too cluttered.
If a cluttered desk is the sign of a cluttered mind, what is the significance of a clean desk?
One way to organize your thoughts is to tidy up, even if it's in places where it makes no sense at all.
Because of the accumulation of objects, things are never quite the way I want them to be. There has always been a lack of, well, clarity.
I have personal issues with clutter. I, personally, am very minimalist and like a clean slate. I like to throw everything away.
My head was full of tidying tips, and I had complete, albeit misguided, confidence that I could tidy any place.
Some kind of clutter is difficult - letting go of things with sentimental value, sifting through papers - but some clutter I find very refreshing to clear. I drive my daughters nuts because I'm always wandering into their rooms to clear clutter.
The more I examine the issue of clutter, the more effort I put into combating it, because it really does act as a weight.
I prefer a cluttered workspace.
I am so organized that it's dysfunctional. Everything has a place. I am a very visual person, so my environment is important to me. If my environment is messy, I can't think clearly. I don't like clutter. A clean desk is a clean mind for me.
