Sleep
A good night’s sleep.
The recommendations come from research conducted by Dr. Marty Seligman at the University of Pennsylvania.
Simple solution
Write a minimum of three things you were grateful for during the day.
Those things can be people who gave you suggestions or thanked you for something you did—someone who acknowledges your work. It can be finding something you lost. I found my sister’s earring in the garage, seems the cat relocated it.
Some days’ I’m grateful for my early am hot cup of tea or a good meditation I found on you tube.
Or the warmth of the covers on my bed.
Each sets my mind thinking positive thoughts for my brain as I sleep.
Branding
Branding isn’t built in a studio—it’s built in the moments between meetings, at networking events, and even while waiting for your latte.
From Drawings to Dialogue
Designers aren’t just visual thinkers—we’re translators of imagination.
When you can turn drawings into dialogue, every presentation becomes a partnership.
How Humor Can Lighten the Room
A smile can make your design pitch twice as memorable. Humor, when done right, isn’t about being a comedian it’s about being human. A little laughter reminds everyone that design is supposed to bring joy, not stress. So the next time you walk into a presentation, bring your sense of humor along with your fabric swatches. You’ll leave behind not only a beautiful concept but also a positive impression.
