If you already have a bunch of unorganized clutter. get rid of small amounts at a time, in between breaks. Don't need to clear it all off at once. If something isn't important (junk mail, etc) - throw it away! You don't need it. And it's taking up your valuable time.

Additionally, go all digital. Tell your electric company, phone company, etc to all stop sending you paper bills. This is an age where it's just not necessary. You can get it emailed. Be careful though, email boxes can get cluttered too...
Nice, thanks for writing that up

I have tried various approaches, yet after about a week it kind of stops working. The clutter keeps returning because it could be important in a little while or maybe not. Also I should probably stop eating at my desk...
