How many times have you been asked to clean your room? Or maybe declutter your house? or make sure that the house is tidy before going somewhere? Well, the next time that people tell you to mind their own business and that this “mess” is actually your way of being creative! Scientists have discovered some unique things about people who live in messy environments. Keep on reading to discover why you might create a mess in your house! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Studies Show That Messy Environments Spark Creativity <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In a recent study, scientists studied how a messy or clean room could have an impact on someone’s life and the results are quite surprising. The people in tidy and clean rooms would make more responsible decisions in their lives. They would give more to charity and choose healthy options when it came to food. <\/p>\n\n\n

Scientists expected that messy people would just be less productive or would be distracted more. However, the results of the study were very interesting. The study revealed that people in messy rooms would come up with more creative ideas and solutions to problems. For example, they would come up with more creative uses for a ping pong ball than the people in the tidy rooms. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

There was another noticeable difference between the messy en clean groups of people. The people from the messy environments would go for “new” options while the clean group would stick to the “classic” options staying in their comfort zones. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Should you be a Neat Freak or Embrace the mess? <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The answer to this question is not so difficult to answer, you should do what works best for yourself. However, keeping a general cleanliness can be beneficial for your health as well. But if your desk is filled with papers you might as well leave them. This way you get to enjoy and let the extra ideas run freely through your mind! <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
