After working daily on uncluttered white spaces for just under a year, I am going to take a little breather along with our consistently brilliant contributors.

However, for those of you working through Christmas, we will be contributing a post each Thursday between now and the 11th of January where we will return to 3 minutes a day.

I will be reading all comments and responding to all email daily so keep them coming. So, whilst the 1-2ft swell doesn’t look overly exciting, the idea of diving into the ocean certainly does. Every day from here until the 11th.

In the mean time, Merry Christmas, have an amazing break, please recharge your batteries and your thinking for the new year and lets come back and create change in 2010. Spend some time thinking of idea’s. Good and bad. I will leave you with this post from Seth Godin on Tuesday which struck a cord.

A few people are afraid of good ideas, ideas that make a difference or contribute in some way. Good ideas bring change, that’s frightening.

But many people are petrified of bad ideas. Ideas that make us look stupid or waste time or money or create some sort of backlash.

The problem is that you can’t have good ideas unless you’re willing to generate a lot of bad ones.

Painters, musicians, entrepreneurs, writers, chiropractors, accountants–we all fail far more than we succeed. We fail at closing a sale or playing a note. We fail at an idea for a series of paintings or the theme for a trade show booth.

But we succeed far more often than people who have no ideas at all.

Someone asked me where I get all my good ideas, explaining that it takes him a month or two to come up with one and I seem to have more than that. I asked him how many bad ideas he has every month. He paused and said, “none.”

And there, you see, is the problem.

Thank you to all of our readers and supporters. Especially the crew who visit daily week on week. We love the support. uncluttered white spaces is not about volume, its about content. Its about content for our readers. We don’t care about eyeballs, we care about the quality of readers reading our site and we couldn’t be more blown away by the support.

For an amazing treat for some kids in your family “of any age”. We loved the UGROUP MEDIA’s Santa PNP. Drop by and create one for a loved one.

Thank you.
