My desk has become a tangled disaster, 我的书桌已经乱成一团糟了,

so today I sort it out. 所以今天我打算好好收拾一下。

First, the cables: 先从那些线开始:

a nest of charging cords all knotted together behind the monitor. 显示器后面全是一团团缠在一起的充电线,跟个鸟窝似的。

I unplug them one by one, untangle the mess, 我一根根拔下来,把缠乱的线理顺,

and bundle each with a little velcro tie. 再用小魔术贴扎带把每根都绑好。

I run a duster between the keys of the keyboard, 用除尘刷扫了扫键盘缝里的灰,

and wipe down the desk with a damp cloth. 又拿湿抹布把桌面整个擦了一遍。

Then I tackle the paper piles, 接着来对付那一堆堆的纸,

filing what I need and recycling what I don't. 有用的归档收好,没用的直接扔去回收。

I line up my pens in their holder and square off the notebooks. 把笔在笔筒里放整齐,笔记本也都码得方方正正。

It's amazing how a cluttered desk quietly clutters your mind too — 桌子杂乱真的会悄悄让脑子也跟着乱,说来也神奇——

clear the space, clear the head. 空间清爽了,头脑也跟着清醒了。

Cables tidy, surface clean, everything within reach — 电线整齐了,桌面干净了,所有东西都随手够得着——

suddenly I actually want to sit down and work. 突然间,我居然真的想坐下来好好干活了。

A tidy desk won't do the job for me, 桌子整洁并不能替我把活儿干了,

but it definitely helps me start. 但绝对能帮我好好开个头。
