So I am disorganized. I have had a successful career, but would have done more if I had been organized.
But what if the inefficiency created by disorganization were actually an advantage?
On the other hand, I am organized when I have to be, or organized *enough* to have had career.
I can imagine focussing on organization and then suddenly becoming very productive again.
Imagine having one defect so major that it affects everything else. Like those advice columns where we read that the person's partner is perfect, "I love him/her... except for one small problem..." which always turns out to be something seriously abusive. Everything ELSE is fine, so why can't I look past that ONE issue.

Writer and advice columnist Dan Savage calls the "one small problem" - that persistently annoying quality of one's partner - "the price of admission." If you can't take it, then don't commit. It often amazed me, by the way, how often people who wrote in needed to be told that the "small problem" was really "serious abuse" and therefore beyond the pale. That is, it was a big problem.
