![Recently Chris Do, put out a post on his social media about how he felt swamped by the shear amount of posts from others that copy or look similar to his posts.
And while I know I am also doing these posts, he had a very good point! People have lost their creativity and now copy a format as his way seems to be the way you get attention.
Literally, look on your explore page and what do you see? Millions of posts copying eachother or using similar fonts!
So I have taken on the challenge! And I feel the time is right for me to be me! In the next month I hope to be posting more than just carosels posts.
JOIN ME AND TAKE THE CHALLENGE AND EXPERIMENT!
Big thank you to @thechrisdo for again pointing out that we are missing the point of social media!

With more of us working from home due to the pandemic, businesses are starting to realise that it is far cheaper to have remote workers than investing in bricks and morter.
With this information I believe that the world of work has changed to allow us more time at home đĄ

Your designing for your client and they turn around midway through and say 'Hi, I am really sorry but I have just seen Canva and it does what I need you to do. So I am sorry but I would like to cancel the project'.
If it has, then your not alone and it can be very frustrating at first. But, is Canva really taking over?
The short answer is no.
Why? Well canva is a tool much like your Adobe programs are. They have always been available but clients prefer a real designers touch.
Sure, you may not get the small stuff but I can guarantee that you'll get the big stuff.
So remember, Canva is only a tool, it might sound scary at first but your role as a designer is much more than just creating a pretty image. Your a problem solver, a thinker and innovator.
You have nothing to fear. In fact canva is here to help make things easier.

Here is six steps I use to schedule my time to keep me on track.
Background:
Starting my freelance career last year I needed to find a way of keeping track of my time. I found that the weeks would just fly by and I would only complete 1 or 2 things.
That's when I decided to create a schedule and a daily plan.
Splitting my time into smaller 1 hour chunks allowed me to keep active and work on more client work over the week. I found that treating my work like school allowed me to fit more things in to my day.
The trick is combining both home chores and work together to stop you from feeling board.
I hope that this advice helps you!

In our modern world people are so focused on what others think and how many likes and follows they have that they have stopped being true to themselves.đ
As a business creator, you go though many moments where you ask yourself if that is what you want to do. Sometimes we have a goal and it changes to what we really want.
Asking yourself to be true and not give yourself self-deception is hard.
If you feel the need to do somthing dont let anyone hold you back. No teachers, no parents, and no peers. Do whatever makes you happy and dont stop!
