According to the investigations of Myers-Briggs, different people have different preferences, also in the way they like to organize their lives.

The black and white extremes of this preference is about whether you like to plan and schedule your day (at one side), or whether you live your life at the moment, spontaneously, with an untidy workplace, and meeting deadlines at the latest moment. There is a lot of grey in between both limits. Within the grey area it is probably the hardest way to manage. Either extreme should be unconcerned about its outspoken preference. Moving somewhere in the grey area is the toughest.

Bus also in the middle there is no need to get organized. Unless...

You are free to organize your life the way you prefer it. You think. But that is further besides the truth than you think. At home you maybe free, if you are spending some time alone. Unlinked to the rest of the world. But that is about it.

In this network economy, there is no such thing as being unconnected. Figure out during one day, about the times you depend on someone else.

And there you encounter the problem, right around the corner.

If you are un organized, others will organize your life for you. So here is a good reason to get organized. If you do not want to be squeezed in at the moment it suits others, you should take up a strong position. And that requires that you know what you want. Where do you want to go to?
