Studies estimate that the average person spends an average of 1 hour a day looking for lost or misplaced items....  basing it on only a 5 day work-week that equates to 6 weeks a year.  So.... What does it cost you?

Calculation Formula:

(Annual Salary  / 52 weeks in a year ) X 6 weeks looking = Cost of Disorganization

Example:

$52,000 Salary / 52 = $1,000 a week 

$1,000 X 6 weeks a year = $ 6,000  a year looking for lost items !!!!

To an employer this is 6 weeks of unproductive work per employee annually.

If you are not using a space in your home because it is cluttered, then you are paying for unusable space ....  does that make sense? 

If you are a clutter-er.... how much is clutter costing you?

Calculation Formula:

(Monthly Rent-Mtg / Total Sq Ft of Home) X Sq Ft of Cluttered Space = Monthly Cost of Clutter

Example:

$1,500 Rent-Mortgage / 1500 sq ft = $1.00 square foot 

$1.00 square foot X 500 = $500 of unusable space you are paying for monthly

$500 X 12 months a year = $6,000 Annually !!!
