Last month, I took ninety minutes to organize the cables and wires underneath my desk. They are beautiful now.

Last week, I spent an hour organizing an overhead bin that had become littered with papers and miscellaneous items. It’s visually refreshing now.

And regularly, I’ll journal — just to get things out of my head. I always feel better afterwards.

I’m often surprised by the mental peace that comes from these simple activities.

The headspace that we gain by doing a little bit of interior management — mental and physical organizing and decluttering — that little bit of work pays huge dividends.
