When I was at my peak performance in sales: winning awards ..... my desk was a big huge blob of paper.
When I became a leader, I kept my desk sparse and turned off all devices when someone came to me with a problem.
When I took a job to pay the bills: I ensured I was surrounded by art: art of beaches, boats or light hearted sayings to keep me motivated.
People need to stop trying to be a square peg in a round hole. You are you and your desk habits are your own:
* pristine (conveys no nonsense efficiency)
* cluttered paper bomb (disorganized scatter head)
* lively & personal (keeping things light & disassociate from surroundings)
When in fact:
* spotless can mean you are organized and efficient
* a MESS says: whatever you're doing is more important
* tasteful art and super slogans means you are balanced
NOTE: I am not a doctor, educated in human behavior, nor am I a psychologist. This is my own take.
