I don't really see them as negative (or at least don't get offended). It seems that people are on a spectrum of organization from not even using a calendar and never taking notes ("if it's important I'll remember") to what I do (and maybe even more extreme??). And it's okay! Some people suffer from information overload, some people suffer from inefficiencies and forgetting things, and you can be productive/unproductive, or happy/unhappy either way -- there are many other factors at play too.
