If a disorderly The desk is one sign of geniusI could be one of the smartest people out there.

Wherever I worked, both in an office and in my house, I started with the most intentions to keep my desk clean and without clutter, just to evaluate the time and the energy cost of constantly putting things just to pull them out the next day. Spoiler warning: most of the time, it’s not worth it. One of the biggest points, Ahem and attackers in my declaration process is the only number of sticky notes that I use. Classic notes of post-it brand, notes in the shape of flowers, news bearings, ribbon flags: they all have a place in my office supply office.

I write everything by hand, with a pen. And I mean everything. Not only in my paper planner, but also on the sticky notes that I have in almost all the rooms of my house. I have them in the kitchen, in my bedside table, in the car. And I will always do it, as it is state scientifically proven That writing things increases learning and memory, since the active hand writing the most large connections in the brain.

I love the app for my notes as much as anyone else, but if I write something I have to do in the future, not only do I have to remember that I did it, but I also hope I have named it with something research. If I write it on a sticky note, not only will I remember, but I can attack him exactly where I know I will see it. Does the doctor’s office unexpectedly call me while I am in another room? Sticky note. Remember for my husband who is still asleep and does not have his seated phone, so I can’t send him a message? Sticky note. Sticky notes for my son. Sticky notes for my friends. Sticky notes in my car, in my garage … is an infallible system.

However, the worst transgressor of sticky debris is by far my workstation. If I receive some kind of impossible education, whether it is a meeting, an e-mail, a slow message or through a phone call, it is immediately written on a sticky note and slapped on my planner or, if longer-range, pinned to the wall above my desk, which is aligned with Bulletin Board Bulletin Board Wall Amazon tiles And he currently resembles the pelt of a disappointing piñata.

However, I hadn’t really thought much about what those notes were visually doing for my space until I saw the stick of sticky reminder, the 4.5 -inch dodecahedron that looks like a women’s football ball but in reality it is a desk ornament that you can use. This is the sticky note transformed into the furniture.

The sticky ball had no origin in a 3m room, nor in the brain of Romy and Michelle, but at the Rochester Institute of Technology.
