Day 400 of Des McCabe's Personal Development Exercises WHITE SPACE When I feel the automatic urge to pick up my phone, switch on the TV, or browse the net, I now pause. For I realise that these are habits I’ve learned. I fill my brain and use up my time, with activities. It’s all other people’s content, and although some is good, to be honest, most is not really the food of life! I 'm trying not to give away my time and my focus to external content. I'm learning to be more selective in my choices. My freelance graphic designer has spent years telling me about white space, and urging me to see things differently. ‘You don’t need to fill every piece of the page with text, images are content,’ she says. I’m now leaving empty spaces in my day, replacing the urge to fill every moment. It’s my white space time. PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT EXERCISE 1. When is your White Space time today? 2. How much are you filling up on other people's content? |
