If you don't see the point, why bother?
I find the condition of my apartment relates directly to the condition I am in. If I take time to clean and care for my place, normally I am taking good care of myself/my body, too. If you have a lot of junk piled up in front of your entryway, this might represent not wanting to open up to people. If you find yourself only cleaning or organizing when you have guests, that shows you that you value keeping up appearances. It might also demonstrate that you feel other people are worth doing things for whereas you yourself are not worth the effort.
If my papers are piled up and I don't know what is there, that often represents to me some form of denial. When my papers and books are organized, so are my thoughts and knowledge.
For me an important part of me feeling calm and prepared to go on stage is the condition my sheet music is in. Normally, one of the first things I do is put together the program, copy the music and have is professionally bound. This symbolizes making a decision, a commitment to a situation. and having a clear understanding of what my task is on any particular evening.
