What are the costs of living a disorganized life?

...some examples..

A salesperson misses a lunch with a key prospect, who feels insulted, and takes his $50,000 project to the competition...

...A woman spends time and money shopping for things she's bought before, but can't find in the house. As a professional, her time is worth $65/hour... She just spent 3 hours and $50 on something she didn't need...

...A parent feels they just can't find the time to sit and 'be a parent' with their child, because they're always running somewhere, always late.

...A non-profit organization doesn't send out hundreds of fundraising letters, because past givers weren't stored properly in their database... They miss the opportunity for thousands in donations.

...A company spends thousands on an office move, larger space, and time lost in the process because they were holding onto files and old filing cabinets that weren't organized properly, yet felt they needed more space to expand.
