Did you push the button too fast? Did you push it before you should have? Should you have waited a little longer?

Doesn’t matter. It’s done now.

Start again. There’s always version two.

There’s a spot between ignorance and knowledge. It’s called learning. It’s the most interesting place to be.

Sometimes you have to scrap everything you’ve done and start again. It feels like a waste. But it’s not. It’s an investment. You learned a lot, even if it’s just what not to do, or how not to do something.

Start again if you have to but what you’ve already done was not a waste.

Don’t be afraid to try new things, to learn new tricks.

What you know is not all there is. What you know is not always the best way.

You must keep learning. You must remain open to new knowledge.

Learning is living.

Whitespace is the area or areas of a page or document left blank or unmarked. It’s the space between all the other elements on the page. Whitespace makes the other elements more legible, easier to understand and comprehend. It also helps draw attention to the elements that are placed on the page.

Our days are often stuffed, cluttered, and chaotic. We end up feeling like we’re constantly switched on, constantly busy.

We need to give ourselves some ‘lifespace’, whitespace for our lives. Time in between everything to consider what we’re doing and where we’re going.

It doesn’t mean we have to stop doing the things we want to do. Maybe we just need to stretch everything out a little bit. Some extra time between items to give ourselves a chance to breathe, a chance to reflect on the parts of our day and enjoy them. Or if we didn’t enjoy something to take the time to understand why.

If you drive, creating lifespace could be as simple as not turning the radio on for a few minutes. That few minutes is enough time to reflect on whatever you were doing just before you got in the car.

Lifespace is for you looking at your own life. Lifespace is to bring balance to the life you live through your own eyes. It’s to bring more order, to make it more visible, more tidy, to separate the different elements.

Different designers use whitespace in different ways when designing a page.

You’re the designer of your life. Use lifespace in the way you choose to improve the life you live.

There are always trends. Design trends, business trends, what-to-wear trends, to name just a few.

Either be the trend or avoid it. Don’t travel the middle.
