In an office setting, clutter and disorganization obviously can lead us to easily lose important papers, and messages. But the most important thing that you can lose, in the words of Aretha Franklin is "Respect". Your desk and office is a reflection of you! So, what does your office tell people about you? If you think that it is saying "I am busy and have many important papers". Consider that what it is also possibly SCREAMING is "you are out of control, can't handle the job, are ineffective, are incompetent and you don't care" Although this may be far from true, it is the message you are sending. Is perception reality for you? If so, you can decide to change the message your office is sending to your co-workers, clients and boss to "I can prioritize, I can multi-task, I am in control, and mostly - I CARE".
