Do you ever watch T.V.? I have five shows I watch and on weekends I watch movies if I can find the time. I have noticed the networks have started doing something that I find irritating and completely unnecessary.

When watching a show a pop up will appear in one or both lower corners of the screen. For an instant my eyes go to the popup and my mind is distracted from what I am watching.

Is this how we clear clutter when we are organizing? Do you pick up one piece of paper and put it down as you spot another one to pick up. Or is your mind on your next project, not giving the one you are working on your attention?

When you clear clutter stay focused on the task at hand and it will go quicker and you will actually will be more efficient.
