Do you know why “order” feels good? Well, in part it’s because our brain doesn’t have to work so hard.
Clutter creates stress that has three major biological and neurological effects on us—our cortisol levels, our creativity and ability to focus, and our experience of pain.
No matter how we slice it, when clutter creeps in to the point where it exceeds our ability to manage it – havoc occurs in our world.
So if you’re struggling with clutter, it stands to reason that your mind is craving calm, clarity and focus. That’s why I am going to suggest that you attend my FREE webinar.

5 Productivity Habits
Highly Successful People Demonstrate
I have heard it said, (actually it was from Brendon Burchard, one of the top performance coaches in the world) that there are two types of people in this world – “People who say ‘I don’t know how’ and so therefore they stop” and “People who say ‘I don’t know how’ and they go and find out how.”
We could perceive that one type is successful while the other is unsuccessful if we were going to view this from a standpoint of productivity. Speaking of productivity, I have also heard that highly successful people have a common trait. They are consistent in producing. But beyond that, there are (according to Brendon Burchard) five habits that people demonstrate who are truly productive…let’s take a look.
Habit #1: Raise Your Ambitions
“You are only productive to the degree of motivation stirred by your ambitions.”
~ Brendon Burchard
So what does this quote mean? It asks; What are you fired up about? What are your dreams? If you can’t answer this, then perhaps it’s time to ask the bigger question…What is your purpose in this life? You can then work your way up from there. We all need to feel connected to something that breeds life in us. Can you remember when you were connected in the past to a dream and how excited you were? I can tell you this, if you are feeling unproductive, it’s probably due to unclear ambitions. So go ahead – go for it! Remember this…raising your ambition doesn’t have to be about having more money, fancy cars, etc. It can be about service, such as being a better dad or a better boss. Even monks strive to deepen their meditation to their source….think about it!
Habit #2: Own Your Morning
Now, let’s be truthful here. If your morning is running on chaos, your day will be trapped in reaction mode – yes? Of course it will be. I learned a few statistics from Brendon on this matter. I learned that we can gain 30% of our productivity if we choose not to check our email in the first 60 minutes of waking up. It seems that 85% of us grab our phone upon rising, perhaps before we even give our significant other a morning kiss. Amazing isn’t it? I mean seriously, be honest … do you do this? If you do, well guess what – you’re the ultimate reactionary!
Let’s take back control of our morning by simply putting some things into place that can help immediately:
Habit #3: Work the Needle Movers
In other words, identify the things that need the most attention and work on them. Did you know that 80% of what we work on doesn’t matter and it’s only the 20% that actually does? Perhaps this tells us a little story on what we are focusing on. Yes, you heard me, we need to focus on what is important – otherwise it will become a distraction if you choose those tasks outside of it.
I found this little tip to be extremely helpful:
Prioritize impact, not ease. This simply means to attack the stuff that will have the most impact towards tomorrow, the next day, and your vision.
Habit #4: Demonstrate, Then Delegate
Well this has always been a big one for me. I am a firm believer that before we can turn our work over to another – we first must master it. Meaning, we need to know the ins and outs of all of our work and feel confident that we understand all of it before we delegate. How else can we expect another to do the type of job we expect of them? If we don’t, we just set ourselves up for failure.
Habit # 5: Use Performance Enhancers
I know, what you must be thinking…caffeine…right? No, no, not at all. There are three top performance enhancers that can help us focus and be more productive.

Can working as a team have benefits beyond moral support?
Researchers at Santa Clara and Stanford Universities have found that exercising with a partner enhances a workout’s stress-reducing effects – benefiting body and mind. What they discovered was that when working with a partner, people generally felt calmer then if they worked solo. They also concluded that whether they chatted or not through their regimen, the dialogue did not have an adverse effect on their results, and that the feelings of calmness usually lasted well into the evening hours.
In the Professional Organizing world – there is a similar parallel which we refer to as the “Body-Double.” The purpose of the Body- Double is to act like an anchor, not an active assistant in the process of organizing. The concept is to help the other person stay focused and ignore distractions, simply by being present.
Often, this practice provides emotional support, as clients will feel that having a Body-Double gives them permission to finish what needs to be done, thus calming their feelings of overwhelm and reducing their urge to walk away. It is a highly effective strategy that leaves the persona feeling empowered and satisfied.
I’ve heard it been said that “Wisdom is the study of difference.”
I thought about this and how it applies to disorder and order.
For example, I have always said…
“Show me a person with clutter and I will show you their lack of follow through.”
Clutter, a form of disorder, distracts the mind.
Organization is order and brings clarity.
Look at the below picture – do you think you can be productive, focused, and orderly in this environment?
Now look at this picture – do you think this environment would bring about focus, clarity and order?
What are you experiencing right now? Do you understand the difference between order and disorder in the context of how it can make a true difference in your life?
Here is a fact:
If I can change what you know, I can change what you do.
And if I can change what you do to help you be more organized and efficient, I think you will then understand that “Wisdom is the study of difference.”
