We all have messes in our lives. If you have stacks of paper around your desk, you have a mess. When you procrastinate on an incomplete project, it is a mess. Each time you drag out making an important decision, you have another mess.
Messes are situations of disorder, conflict and incompletion.
Consciously and subconsciously, your mind keeps coming back to these messes. They cause you to be distracted, lose energy, break concentration and reduce your confidence. These loose ends can include finances, relationships, your workspace, physical well-being, agreements and legal contracts. We don't create a mess on purpose. It just happens.
