I put off learning graphic design for so long because of all the struggles I heard surrounding finding work in the industry,
but I realized that what’s important is:
1. Having a solid niche from the beginning (so you’re not general)
2. Learning skills outside of just graphic design (AI, 3D modeling, sculpting, motion graphics)
3. Finding ways to be creative by combining graphic design with something else
Having your spice is how you compete with completion.
You at least chose the correct software to use :)
I agree!
