If you need it, retweet & comment below, and I'll send the Google Doc to you.
how to design better
- just design more
- embrace the fact that designing is hard
- design everyday. keep a score
- designer's block doesn't exist. keep the bar low. designing very badly is part of the process. doctors don’t get doctor’s block stupid.
- distraction is the enemy. timeblock design sessions. don't do anything else. learn to say no.
- fail doing exactly what you want to do
- designing never stops
- designing is group sport. show your design. get feedback. improve
- design like a baby, clean it up like a gentleman. don't design and edit at the same time
- not everyone has to like your design. art divides
- design enough to keep your users wanting more
There’s a stage in tech where:
– You no longer job hunt, opportunities find you.
– You hold a well-paying role, or build as a founder/investor.
– You stop posting work-in-progress frequently, instead sharing team or individual wins, lifestyle, and community.
- Your bio gives “if you know, you know” type of vibes
It’s a stage where balance returns. You have space for life beyond work and can pursue long-held goals.
I hope you reach it too.
Surround yourself with ambitious and competent people, it will rub off on you.
In the short run you will feel intimidated, in the long run you will all be the same.
