INTRODUCTION
What's the problem?
The office manager asks for notes on a report or for the file that you should have returned a week ago. You promise to come up with itas soon as you plow through the mountain of papers and folders on your desk and the surrounding floor.
"I know where everything isjust give me a little time to find it. Is that so bad? Hey, my desk may be a mess, but I know where everything is."
Does that sound like you? If so, maybe you should slowly replay in your mind the last time that you had to find an important piece of information in your cluttered work space.
Are you impressed with what you remember? Did you look like a polished professional while shoving piles of paper aside, moving boxes, and flipping through folders? Probably not.
