I didn't stop designing, I just stopped trusting myself for a while.
Lately I've been trying to find my way back to creating. When I first started designing, I was full of excitement, I wanted to learn everything, experiment with ideas, and just make things. But somewhere along the way, especially with how quickly the design world is changing, I started feeling like I wasn't doing enough.
There was always something new to learn, something I could be better at, or something that made me question my own abilities. I got so caught up in trying to improve that I stopped creating as much as I wanted to. So slowly, I've been trying to change that. I've started noticing small details again, using references more actively, instead of just saving them, and letting myself explore ideas instead of overthinking every step. I'm still figuring things out, but sharing this personal branding project feels like a step back into creating. I'm curious, how do other designers deal with that pressure to grow so much that you feel stuck instead?
