Today, on the 22nd of June 2009, I have christened it as Clean Desk Day for me, and am inviting others to participate too. I’ve had a fairly (understatement!) messy desk for the longest time, and due to lots of research by others, I’m convinced that a clean desk helps with productivity. Knowing how important time is in this era, I need to squeeze out as much as I can.
So, I dug around under my piles of “stuff” and disposed a whole lotta things. Here’s BEFORE I started cleaning…
Before the big clean up!
And from angle number #2…
One minute later, and I’m DONE! Whoopeeee… that was easy.
1 minute later... 
it's all under the desk!
Heheh, so when’s Clean Floor Day?
Some 10 minutes later, I managed to file all my junk, dispose of excess paper in the recycling heap and actually be proud to say my desk is CLEAN. Well, for now anyway.
Some say, a clean desk is the sign of a sick mind. Oh well, I guess I’ll try to be sick for a little while, anyway.
After I posted this blog post, good Twitter-mate @aprilyim posted her own #cleandesk contribution. If you look closely, you can see how hard she works (look at her notebook!).

Here lie my thoughts: that of an entrepreneur, media-junkie, gadget-junkie, photographer, videographer, once-PC-user-but-now-Mac-user and husband.
sigh….which reminds me…..my own clutter!

huh.. my desk also have dead lizard too…
Looks like quite a few ppl struggle to keep the desk clean. I used to think only ppl who handles lot’s of paper tend to have cluttered desk aka me, but looks like that’s a myth.
That’s sound like a great title for a short video “Myth of the de-cluttered table”
Anyhoo, some year back I met a guy, who really have a clean desk. Hats off. He the MD btw.
