Every day I look at my desk and think, "today I will clean this mess up!" I clean some of it up every day. Really, I do. Honest. But it never gets better.
Occasionally I put everything on a pile or two, but the second I have to find an item on one of those piles, my semblence of neatness is destroyed.
I have a very large desk and a significant amount of counter space as well. There is room to have a place for every single item on my desk. There is no good reason for my mess. It disturbs my focus.
I might need professional help.

have you tried labeled hanging files? it took me a few years to get used to them but now I totally dig the whole clean desk thing... i mostly use it at work. another option is binders with tabs... and if your papers are not hole-punchable then put plastic sleeves in your binder... cheers!
I'm with you Robin...my desk at work is insane. but I know where everything is?! I do the same thing too - put piles on top of piles to try and make it look better :) What organized chaos.
I have files. I have binders. I even have one of those stacking file things on my desk. In theory, I'm organized!
