Good design is iterative. We learn what works by testing, failing, and refining.

2. Imposter syndrome is real

Every designer feels it sometimes. The key is to keep learning and growing.

3. Perfect is the enemy of shipped

Done is better than perfect. Ship, measure, iterate.

4. Design is not just making things pretty

It is about solving problems, communicating ideas, and driving business outcomes.

5. Feedback is a gift

Even when it stings, honest feedback makes you and your work better.
