Preview โ€” The Goal

๐Ÿ—‚๏ธ The Goal: Your desktop has 87 icons, three files named 'FINAL_final_v2,' and a screenshot graveyard going back years.

The fix isn't discipline; it's a system so simple it maintains itself: FOUR master folders, and nothing else on the desktop. Work, Personal, Archive, Inbox. That's the whole architecture. Here's how to get there in under an hour.
