Is your workspace a mess?

Dear {NAME}, Take a look at your desk. Do the piles of paper, mounds of folders, and scattered books make you dread getting near it? Glance at your computer or smartphone. Does checking your email or your task list make you feel like you’re drowning? Then I have got something special for you! Unlike any other organizational book, [Work Clean] is the first to be inspired by the culinary world. Every day, chefs across the globe churn out enormous amounts of high- quality work with efficiency using a system called [mise-en-place]―a French culinary term that means “putting in place” and signifies an entire lifestyle of readiness and engagement.  In [Work Clean], author Dan Charnas reveals [how to apply mise-en-place] outside the kitchen, in any kind of work. Visit [WorkClean.com] to watch a short video on the 10 principles to organize your life, work and mind. Just take a look at what people are saying about this new publication that went on sale Tuesday, May 3rd. "Finally [a book] that shows the rest of the world that a chef's meticulous need for order isn't about obsession--it's a way to set them up for success.” — Chef Marcus Samuelsson “A distinctive and fascinating read!  ‘[Work Clean]’ shares the skills used by chef’s to help you manage your time and resources to effectively get the most out of life.” — Chef Alfred Portale “The concept of mise-en-place can seem stoic or robotic even, but Dan has revealed otherwise [in [Work Clean]]. It is a means to completing successfully what is right in front of us - whether in or out of the kitchen - through consideration and action.” — Chef Sam Henderson What can chefs teach us about their [system of organization], their way of managing time, space, resources, communication, and people? Those answers are in the recently published book, [Work Clean: The Life Changing Power of Mise-en-Place to Transform Your Life, Work, and Mind,] told via the stories of great chefs and cooks like Thomas Keller and Marcus Samuelsson. The [ingredients of mise-en- place] range from the simple—cleaning as you go, and consolidating your communication streams—to the profound notion of making first moves: that a minute of work now can save hours in the future, and can unlock a cascade of work on your behalf that happens while your hands are off. [Working clean] isn’t about being tidy so much as it is being kind to yourself by preparing; by caring for your personal workspaces and maintaining them; and by being present in everything you do.
