Be more organized
If your work desk looks more like a landfill than a place to conduct business, there’s a really good chance that you should be more organized. Researchers at the Princeton University Neuroscience Institute found that “Multiple stimuli present in the visual field at the same time compete for neural representation by mutually suppressing their evoked activity throughout visual cortex.” In layman’s terms what it means is that a cluttered place of work limits your brain’s ability to process functions and concentrate.
Start small, like organizing your desk, or getting financial records together for tax season. The more you get into the habit of keeping a clean and clear work area, the more you’ll make it part of your daily routine. Another thing that’s simple but helpful is to throw things away as soon as you’re done with them or don’t need them. Limit the amount of unnecessary clutter you have.
