I misplace stuff all the time, like yesterday when I almost put the scissors in the fridge. It got me to thinking about the probability of objects being placed in the correct spot. Scissors have a definite use. Sure you might be able to scrape some paint or stab something but for the most part scissors, as well as fridges, have specific uses. So it would seem logical that good compatibility between objects would help streamline everyday life.
Then I thought about artistic surroundings, like a paint brush and paint or drumsticks and drumset. You can do no wrong with the paint since its subjective by nature. With drums or any instrument, accidents aren't bad if the context allows it, and that's completely dependent on the player. Anyways, it seems like our surroundings can dictate our performance. The more specific the object, the higher the probability of failure. Conversely the less specific, the higher rate of success. Perhaps ADD is a condition of someone being around to many objects with specific purposes. I feel the struggle of choice is the source problem. People who are diagnosed with ADD are really just gifted people in the wrong surrounding. Maybe if children weren't surrounded by specifics and instead open ended things, like the arts and all that liberal commie shit we'd have a better a world!
And another thing about putting stuff in the wrong place. The longer something stays out of order, the more it becomes the new reality and is more easily acceptable. For instance the longer someone avoids repaying somebody the easier it is to sweep it under the table. Or the longer something is left out of place the more we get used to it and don't care. I suppose any idea will continue in its path until acted upon by an idea of equal or greater force. And that brings me back to ADD. They are bombarded with compartmentalized ideas and are literally getting knocked around by ideas of equal or greater force. just a thought
So, next time you want to be creative or spontaneous try to surround yourself with the things that you want to do and get rid of all else, like a zen master was running Clean Sweep on your place.
