Decluttering promotes a sense of calm from "summary" of Joy at Work by Marie Kondo,Scott Sonenshein
When our workspaces are cluttered, we often feel overwhelmed and stressed. The sight of piles of papers, stacks of files, and various items scattered around can distract us and make it difficult to focus on the task at hand. Clutter creates a sense of chaos and disorganization, which can lead to feelings of anxiety and unease. By decluttering our workspace, we can create a sense of simplicity and order that promotes a feeling of calm. When we remove unnecessary items and organize our belongings in a way that is tidy and efficient, we create a more peaceful environment in which to work. A clear and clutter-free space allows us to think more clearly and make better decisions, as we are not distracted by the mess surrounding us. Decluttering also helps us to prioritize our tasks and stay focused on what is most important. When we eliminate distractions and unnecessary items from our workspace, we are better able to concentrate on the work that needs to be done. This can lead to increased productivity and a greater sense of accomplishment, as we are able to work more efficiently in a clutter-free environment. In addition, decluttering can have a positive impact on our mental well-being. Research has shown that clutter can contribute to feelings of stress and anxiety, while a clean and organized environment can have a calming effect on the mind. When we declutter our workspace, we are not only creating a more pleasant and inviting space in which to work, but we are also promoting a sense of peace and tranquility that can help to improve our overall mood and mental health.- Decluttering our workspaces can have a powerful impact on our sense of calm and well-being. By creating a more organized and efficient environment in which to work, we can reduce feelings of stress and overwhelm, improve our focus and productivity, and promote a greater sense of peace and tranquility in our daily lives.
