The Art & Science of Succeeding as a Designer.

Marie Poulinmariepoulin.comdigitalstrategyschool.comweareokidoki.com

You must design your career

(and business)

Complete overwhelm.

You have more control than you think.

What kind of business+life do you want?

BAD. GOOD. GREAT.make a list.

Let go of what is not supporting your goals.

Sometimes it hurts.

My “client from hell” told me that working with her would change

my life. And she was right.

Use your pain points as opportunities.

Systems will save you.

You teach people how to treat you.

Because, boundaries.

You now.

The Worst.

You as you know you could be.

Uncomfortable. Embarassing. Hurts. Sucks.

(This is where everybody quits.)

aka “The Gap”

F*ck the rules, do what comes naturally. (why I sign emails with xo)

Be genuinely helpful. Overdeliver & Delight.

Listen. Give people what they want.

Perfectionism is crippling. Everything is in beta.

“You are the average of the five people you

spend the most time with.” —JIM ROHN

friends. mentors. colleagues. partners.

Don’t do it alone!

Schedule your personal projects.

Or accept that they’ll never see the light of day

You get to design your life and business.

START TODAY.
