Notes

When I start my day with purpose, I set the stage for a productive day. I no longer waste time reacting to whatever happens, I shape my day and keep control over my time and energy. Family life is tough, and some days I lose track, but try to pick it up as soon as possible.

One of the best decisions early in my design career was embracing a generalist approach. By exploring various disciplines, I gained valuable insights into my passions. This allowed me to tackle diverse tasks, keeping work interesting and avoiding monotony.

Don’t wait for your designs to be perfect before sharing them. Remember, a design is never truly finished, and feedback can only help refine and improve your work.

It’s amusing to see people argue about the “right” way to write ChatGPT prompts.

I just improved my shortcut to now not only post my tweets with the tweet link to my website, but also to Mastodon too.

This is the first test note 🤞🏼

Data is key in design, but I also value creativity. Being stuck in a company that constantly tests every detail and doesn’t trust the designer’s choices is not for me. A company must have a distinct aesthetic style and give designers the freedom to bring their ideas to life.

Everyone should have a sketchbook, is amazing to see all kind of rough ideas you had, the good and bad. Seeing how your thoughts evolve through sketches is inspiring.

I regret not putting dates on the pages earlier.

Regular design workshops can help foster a culture of innovation within your organization, providing regular opportunities for employees to come together and think creatively.
