Want To Get Organized? Eat Chocolate And Chicken

ChocolateCan eating certain foods really help you get organized?  It is possible?

Getting (and staying) organized is about decision making.  When you're holding an item in your hands, you take responsibility for the care and feeding of that item, just like a pet.  You also choose to put it down right in front of you, or put it back in its proper place.

CisforchocolateStudies are showing that running low on the neurotransmitter that controls your mood (serotonin) contributes to "low energy, lack of enthusiasm, and regulating emotions."  That's one of the reasons why someone who is depressed actually feel better when they eat, or at least less cranky.  Now that's a simplistic solution, but you get the point.

Do you feel more motivated to tackle your desk paperwork after you've had a meal?  Or a piece of chocolate?  Try it and share your "scientific" experience.

    Unless you’re allergic to it, how can anyone not feel better after eating a piece of chocolate?!

    OMG, I’m so food sensitive that way. If I haven’t eaten, especially if I’m low on protein, I’m evil, cranky and completely unproductive.

    My daughter and I took the chocolate tour in Seattle a few weeks ago. That was fun and so so tasty!!
    So John, if the chocolate ends up on my hips will that slow me down?
