If you're a designer, there's always room for you to improve. It doesn't matter if you work at an agency, if you work for yourself, or if you are somewhere in between; developing your skills and taste as a designer is important to maintain your value. Always be growing! Giving and getting feedback can be awkward or painful. Here are tips for giving and getting feedback on your creative work.

I recently published a post that was titled "What it looks like when you've found your passion". Let me be clear, my creative world isn't bundled up into a neat little package. I want to be real with you guys. While I've certainly found several things that I consider myself very passionate about, my creative future is still very hazy to me.

As long as we share valuable and real knowledge, we're contributing to the greater good of the community. We just have to remember that most people are in that fuzzy grey area and take it all with healthy skepticism. But that shouldn't stop us from learning and spreading knowledge when we can.

Put yourself out there. And if you're worried about perfectionism or appearing amateurish or whatever, just remember that your hard work pushes you in front of the crowd already. Plus, everyone else is just winging it.
