Most senior+ designers don’t share client work because they’re too busy working on shit.

as a creative you need to treat anyone that tries to humble you or take away your confidence as a descendant of satan

as a designer you really have to learn to question everything. for example, the first step of my design process is questioning whether i should’ve become a designer in the first place.

Unfortunately, diet, exercise, and waking up at the crack of dawn DOES dramatically improve the quality of your life.

You’re an adult, have that difficult conversation. Articulate yourself and speak. Nobody is going to beat you. Please talk.

Every design needs to sell by default.
It's really that simple.
I work in events space, we start advertising months(sometimes a year) before the event, tweaking and updating visuals based on how the audience is perceiving it. It's important because design sells.
If I was only designing the initial branding/visuals for every project, I really can't proclaim I am designing "high-converting" branding or visual design to sell tickets because I only did what I know would work, and in many cases it might not work. Different event = different audience.
Here's my beef
IMO You can't just design a high-converting landing page and deliver it.
It's literally called Conversion Rate Optimization.
it's something you nurture and OPTIMIZE over time using real CONVERSION data and a shit tonne of A/B testing. Also, most of CRO doesn't have to do with design anws
It's not a one and done thing.
So if ur designing one-off projects, stop slapping it everywhere, makes u look dumb

Pro-designer/life tip:
You should never be ‘Available’,
Always appear you're busy.
People want what others are getting.
Create pysological value by appearing ‘Busy’ but always at REACH.

so much discourse is caused by the fact that people dont read. not comics, not books, not articles, not papers, not literary fiction, not non fiction, not academic works, nothing.
