Neatness Counts


Neatness counts:  This, according to Brian Tracy.

"I run into people all the time who tell me it's OK that my desk is messy, I know where everything is. 

Now you have to understand one thing: intelligent people, people with good memories can very often remember where everything is but it just means that they are using their intelligence to combat  the inefficiency of neatness.

 Every single study that has been done says this:  That if you'll just clean up your work environment so it is completely neat end everything is off  your desk except the one thing you are working  on you will increase your productivity by 20% to 40%".


In a study that was done recently 98% of senior executives said that they would not promote a messy person; that they would not give a messy person greater responsibilities.  That if you are messy, no matter how much you kid yourself, everybody around you concludes that you are inefficient, undependable , unreliable, incompetent, and even if you do the job well, they think it's just an accident.
