My Manifesto

During class we managed to take a look at a successful and insightful Designer named Bruce Mau. He should what was a incomplete Manifesto, a list of rules to live by and below are some that I believe to be true to me.

Inquire about Criticism
Getting told that your work is great is nice but you want your work to actually be great. So you must seek criticism, it keeps your head on straight, it also keeps you on top of your work to make it better. You will want your work picked apart and analyzed. It the right way to get ahead in life.

Stay Competitive
It’s best to stay ahead of the curve and strive to outdo others. It will so you how others pride their work and want to out do you the same way.

Let your Ideas Flow and be Free
Don’t hold onto an idea and not share it because it will be the only thing that you have. You want them to come in by the second and so its best to share your ideas and give them away. It could also be possibly to elaborate on your ideas with other sharing how they could make it work.

Be Simple
Don’t live in your work and make it over complicated. It could make you have anxiety and make your life harder. “Less is more” as they say and it can save your life and your time too.

Strive to be Different
What ever you do, don’t flow someone’s design or trend. It is always best to be different, you can use them to your advantage. Its what will make you successful.

Learning is Never Ending
You must keep learning in order to stay with everyone or even above them, its the best advantage you got.

Live Every Second as if its Your Last
Live. Because you never know what could happen and it could do that in a second. Live in the now not the future. Be happy and treasure everything you have and never take anything for granted.

Starting Over is Good
If you want your work to be good, don’t ever be scared to go back a step or event he beginning, it just might be a good thing as it might give you a better idea.

Love what You Do
If you don’t love what you’re doing, you need to get out. If you stay then you will be depressing and so will you work. Find something that makes you want to do every morning.

Accept Anything and Everything that is Given to You
Its best to try and accept and job that is given to you, even if it sounds like its bad, it just might be a good thing and lead to more good things, or even broaden your horizon.
