White space will make your slides breathe

It can be tempting to maximize your slides; to add more visuals, another quote, or some additional text for context—all to ensure your point comes across. But by doing so, you force yourself to fit more content into less space. This will likely result in dense and cluttered slides with poor readability.
Force yourself to include only one visual and one headline, and let your slides breathe with plenty of white space. Minimal and concise slides help your audience focus and will make your message clearer and more memorable.
