1/ I'm really excited to announce the launch of my new design studio - @trycatalog . I'm lucky that design is something that is in high demand in today's tech industry, but that has resulted in some side effects that I'm hoping to help fix.

This is something I’ve been thinking about lately as I evaluate my own journey. What are your tips for growth if you’re feeling stuck?

[Win Lin @WinL]

I’ve found that the more “senior” in your career you become, the more difficult it is to grow and see improvements in your professional performance

But for those who want to keep going how do we break through these plateaus? Some tips below:
- constantly find people smarter than you to surround yourself with
- find way more specialized content or reading to go deeper
- practice in a way that lets you see tangible results

Twitter is THE home for designers.
Prove us wrong.

In that spirit we figured, why not start a list of some of the designers that inspire us most? So we did.
