Overview
Success is a mirage and design never gets easier. You set a goal for yourself, perhaps an award, a big check, or a new client, but once you achieve that mile-stone everything feels the same. You’re still you. You never feel like you’ve “made it.” This is a good thing.
Your career is a journey, not an end point. That desire for achievement is what keeps you hungry, keeps you pushing forward. It’s a blessing, not a curse. Can you imagine what would happen if you lost it?
