What are you good at?

Do you know your strengths and weaknesses?

Do you know what you’re good at?

Have you figured out what skill or field complements your personality?

If your answer is ‘No’ to any one of the above questions, then you might find this helpful.

What does it mean to be self-taught?

When designers say that they’re self-taught, do you know what they really mean?

How to receive critique

When someone critiques your work, don’t take it personally because they are not criticizing you.

Instead, they’re just sharing their opinion about a piece of craft that you happen to design.

To make the feedback session stay productive, you need to know how to receive feedback.

How to ask for help?

Do you know how to ask for help?

People mostly think that asking a question involves just you reaching out to someone and directly asking for a solution to your problem.

But have you ever considered doing your homework before asking for someone’s time?

Communication is king

Communication is the most important skill for a professional.

If you’ve been given a task and it’s not clear to you, let the other person know as soon as possible. Communicate.

Let there be light

When someone asks you for help at a workplace, be it your supervisor, subordinate, or colleague, don’t embarrass them.

Content is king in layout designs

When you start to design a layout, for example, a landing page layout, instead of going directly on inspirational websites, focus on the content first by following this process.

Creative Ideation Process

Instead of fine-tuning/Improving your single design option, try creating new artboards for every new idea that comes to your mind, regardless of how small it is.

Limitless Creative Ideas

Are you limiting your creative ideas?

A lot of times designers start their project by visiting websites like Pinterest, Dribbble, Behance, or Instagram to get inspired.
