    Default Organizational Wisdom

    Just something to think about...

    Americans waste nine million hours per day searching for misplaced items, according to the American Demographics Society.

    The Wall Street Journal reported that the average U.S. executive wastes six weeks per year searching for missing information in messy desks and files. (That translates into just one hour per day!)

    Cleaning professionals say that getting rid of excess clutter would elimate 40 percent of the housework in an average home. (National Soap and Detergent Association.)
