You Don’t Just Clutter – You “Actively Disorganize”


will I ever actually see my desk (this desk isn't mine -- this looks too organized in its clutter to be mine)

Clutter
verb
to fill or cover with scattered or disordered things that impede movement or reduce effectiveness

So, when I think I’ve made a little progress, I learn…maybe not. And every now and then, there is that moment of truth – that one line, spoken so clearly, that puts my failings into clear view.

I’ve had a life-long deficiency (what’s a bigger word than “deficiency?”) in the “be organized, get rid of clutter” department. I really do think I am less bad than I used to be. And, if so, that means I was really, really bad!

So, this weekend, after the tiniest bit of putting a few things in a more proper place, my wife said:

You don’t just clutter – you actively disorganize.

I’d never heard the phrase: “you actively disorganize.”

She was right, of course.  (She knows me rather well)…

So, yep. That’s me. I’m the “actively disorganize” guy.
