Will power juice

Clearing my stuff

Well, I am now clearing my stuff and mess accumulated over the 4 years I spent with my current organisation. 

Came across many interesting memorabilia, and got reminded of each project back then. One even achieved a patent from the effort. Nice congratulations letter from the law firm, of course, they earned quite a bit of money from the patent application project. 

Threw out a lot of stuff, stuff I used to keep (with the intention that maybe one day I may need to refer to it), and that I have never used or refer to them ever again. 

Stuff that I don't even know are in my possession, going to throw them all away. 

Those that can be recycled, I will recycle them. Those that are confidential, I will shred. Those generic rubbish, I will junk. 

That say a messy table reflects an organised mind, and likewise. Not the other way around. Reason is we all have a certain will power juice in a day. If one spent effort to organise and keep the desk clean, neat and tidy, he will have to spend some will power juice for that day to do that. Will power juice is a limited resource. So he will have lesser will power juice remaining to tackle the bigger challenges of the day itself. 

So, if you have a messy desk, it just means you are saving your will power juice for the decisions that truly matter everyday. So, you have an organised mind, as you have more will power juice to think and conceptualise. 

haha, at least I buy that idea.
