Why Clean Up?
● Clutter bombards our minds with excessive stimuli.
● Clutter distracts us by drawing our attention away from what our focus
should be on.
● Clutter constantly signals to our brains that our work is never done.
● Clutter inhibits creativity and productivity by invading the open spaces that
allow most people to think, brain storm, and problem solve.
● Clutter creates feelings of guilt and embarrassment.
