Tips You Will Never Find On Internet

Basic Things That You Will Never Find On Internet

 

I got an incoming graphic design student asking what I wish I knew before I entered my major and any tips or words of advice. This is mostly what I feel/felt, so go ahead and ask others, too! Here we go!

Things I wish I knew before starting:

Tips (basically a shortened version of above and more elaboration):

  1. RESEARCH. AHHH. Just a google search, at least. Give it an hour or two of just curiosity. Look into things that interest you. See what’s happening. Subscribe to some channels or follow some Tumblr blogs about your field. Learning can happen outside of the classroom and not be stressful.
  2. There is a balance between confidence and arrogance. You aren’t always right, but make sure you notice your strengths as well as your weaknesses.
  3. Your skills could be more helpful than you think. Find ways to incorporate your skills into your work!
  4. Make sure to watch out for yourself as well as others. Your time and education are just as important as theirs.
  5. Try your best, and you will get the results you deserve. If you go overboard, then excellent; don’t burn yourself out.
  6. Do not wallow in your grief. Please do not get held up by one failure. Learn and grow as you should during these pivotal years of your youth.
  7. There is a whole world outside of you that thinks a million different things in a million different ways. Be open and receptive to things that are not familiar to you.
  8. Don’t feel pressured to do things with friends if you don’t want to. Everyone needs a break and needs to know their limits. Don’t eat out for dinner or go drinking or go to a party when there’s an exam to study for that starts at 9 AM that can fail you. Even if EVERYONE is there, including your crush and best friend and the president, they are not your priority (and they’re also not paying the course fees for that class you might fail if you don’t study). Friends are essential but take a break every once in a while.
  9. Be physically healthy in some way. If you’re a potato-like me that works on your laptop for hours and doesn’t move, either get up and squeeze in some exercise, stop eating chips and eat an apple instead. At least make an effort, even if it’s small.
  10. Find what works for you early on. If you’re a visual learner, maybe invest some time in learning how to sketch notes. If you like to listen to lectures, later on, ask your professor if you can record the lecture as a voice note. If you need to interact, ask questions, and form friends early in the semester to make a study group. Can you listen to music while you work, or is it too distracting? Try things now before they mess up your Studying when it matters.
