Fallen out of ID IG over recent months, and its felt like such a relief personally

I ended up comparing myself against those I followed to inspire me, leaving me to look negatively on my skills (1/)

I think the thing I forgot is that people as they progress through their design career, they often progress from being a generalist to a specialist in a particular area

The problem with where I am is I'm trying to find where I want to specialise (my T-skill) (2/)

I'd hoped that by following all of these incredible people that it would give me some guidance in what I wanted to specialise my skill set in but instead I felt torn (3/)

By coming offline and turn away from social media I've been able to just focus on what I enjoy and this has been such a big thing

I love the fact I can do the job I have and get paid for it

I've remembered the feeling why I decided to go into design in the first place

This thread is sort of a mental note to myself to trust in the process and enjoy the ride (5/5)
