Organization is tidy.
But getting to organization doesn't have to be.
Despite curiosity, creativity, strong cognitive skills, and an interest in structure,
some people have a hard time finding organization.
As a result, negative associations about organization can develop: organization limits creativity and redirects original thinking toward accepted norms. People who are creative, people who think of details before main ideas, and people who make many connections among bits of information often experience organization in this way. In neuropsychological testing, diagnoses of ADHD, Executive Function Weaknesses, Learning Disabilities, and Twice Exceptionality are associated with a difficulty finding organization.
Approaching organization from the bottom-up allows part-to-whole thinkers to manage materials, use time productively, and organize ideas for effective and efficient speaking and writing without compromising their individuality.
