Let design drive the conversation. Starting on a blank canvas can be daunting. Instead, start wherever your imagination takes you. When we read a book, we read from start to finish, one side to the other. Yet, to create your main characters, you sometimes start in the middle and work your way to the beginning or the end. Design is visual communication. It's hard to discuss a solution without anything to look at. Leave your ego out of it and use your early designs to drive the conversation. It's always better to look at something, even though it's not perfect. Commit to a North Star. The title you end up giving the project, whether it is your final title, is your North Star. You don't have to commit to a title early; your title will be born from your work. Keep it simple. Don't give yourself an excuse to procrastinate. Start small, simple, and find the balance of enough to move forward and stay inspired. But not too much to get overwhelmed and stuck. The more you act, the more confident you feel. The more you create, the easier it will get. You learn the power of imagination, and you begin to attack problems from every angle. Creating will add wood to your inner fire and give you joy. And your advantage lies in being curious about the future.
