I have a unique way of designing. I’ve rarely seen it used by others, and early on my in career I thought it meant I was broken; that I just wasn’t getting it and doing things the professional way.

Now I’m so glad for my slightly different process, and I’m incredibly comfortable in it. It’s flexible, it allows me to think the way I need to think, and it helps teams get results. 

If you find yourself looking around and wondering if you’re broken, if everyone else is right and you must be wrong—frankly that just might be the case and you need to change, I’ve changed my mind lots of times—but sometimes it means you have something special you should hold to and allow it to grow and blossom.
