Less Clutter after your work.

Generally after I do a work, say, for writing a post in my blog, I use a lot of tools and at the end, I end up making a mess of my desktop or my desk depending on the job.

I put the best in the work I do but I create a messy workspace after the work is done and I need to place the things I had used in their respective places and I need to clean up before starting the next work.

Another impact this has on my productivity is I get a feeling of completed a feat even after a small job because of the clutter in my desk. It would seem as if a hurricane had hit my workspace :).

Now giving a little thought to this trivial thing in our work culture and habit, reveals a lot about us and opens up a wide and enormous quality flaw in us.

The more the confused and disoriented you are, more the clutter in your workspace. Simple equality, no ifs, no buts.

The greatest chef would have the cleanest workstation - A FACT. The greatest painters know where their brushes are.

From now on, make a conscious effort to reduce the clutter after whatever work you do and you would realize you had not been doing those works to the best of your ability and the work's quality would increase.

Let it be cooking or writing or reading or watching TV or anything. Make sure there is very little waste after you being there. Once you achieve this excellent and rewarding habit, you would be surprised how productive you are and how much peaceful you feel within.

You need not become obsessed with this but just make some necessary changes beforehand to avoid clutter later on. Cooking is the most demanding act which would need this.

While writing this post, I am working on my laptop and I have just my laptop on my bed which I cleaned this morning and hence I am able to get a fulfilling experience blogging and blogging alone. Generally, I have my mobile opened in front of me, while I listen to songs and a few books would lie around which might occasionally distract me.

And after this post is done, I would not have left any clutter around because I didn't browse or get deviated and open up plenty of windows but I have just this window and I had been working on this. The feeling is great. A feeling of having been there and experienced the post true to its essense.

A conscious effort of not leaving any clutter, makes me not open up my social networking sites, keeping my bed clean. One small change could bring in a lot of changes which could be good for you.

Concentrate on one work at a time, keep away distractions, use efficient tools and plan well. These could be a starting point to getting things done efficiently and effortlessly and a way to enjoy the trivialities of life to its full extent :)
