This is what Albert Einstein's desk looked like on the day he died
Now, I don't feel so bad
This is Albert Einstein's cluttered desk the day he died on April 18, 1955. Yes, this messy workspace was (perhaps) the birthplace of general relativity and the mass-energy equivalence formula, E=mc² — (E) of a system is equal to its mass (m) multiplied by the speed of light © squared. How can someone with such a great mind make such groundbreaking contributions? Did his chaotic mess help him to create order out of disorder?
Maybe.
Researchers from Palm Beach Neuroscience Institute discovered a connection between clutter and a high intelligence quotient. If your workspace is in disordered shambles, you're not a messy oaf after all; you're a creative genius.
Messiness=Creativity M=C²
According to a University of Minnesota research study, disorder, and clutter might subconsciously connect to how you think. Workers with a meticulously organized desks are more likely to follow work rules and expectations. Neat and sterile desks without strewn papers out of stack reflect a wooden soldier personality marching in tune with the standardized drumming.
