It's important to understand that you control the spaces in your life, because information is stored in spaces--tables, shelves, desks, disks, hard drives, web sites, etc. If your desk is a mess right now, strewn high with piles that are growing higher, remember you're the one who controls that space, as well as your filing cabinet, your shelves, the top of your dining room table, your kitchen counter, your glove compartment, or your back seat. You are the one controlling your space, and this acknowledgment will help you to stay in control of your information.
