Long time without posting, I really feel bad about this. I have been doing a project for university and I didn't feel I had time for anything else, completely concentrated on the design of a newspaper about the 21st Century Graphic designer. I find sometimes really frustrating my Graphic Design and visual communication learning process. I invest a huge amount of time and energy in my projects so far, but I'm getting mediocre results, very disappointing to tell the truth.
I still believe in my capacities and I'm completely convinced that I can become a great Graphic Designer, I try to remind to myself that I need to be patient and keep working hard, but should I change the way I work? Should I change my approach to my projects and to university life all together?
I have a time management problem, this is something that I have been aware for some time now, I feel like I haven't got the time to do everything I would like to do. When I'm doing a project I spend most of the time on the desk, avoiding other activities, but the final piece of work doesn't reflex the time and effort invested. How do you control time? Can it be bad idea to spend too much time in a project?
As well as my time management problem, looks like my research and analysis doesn't come across at all in my design, and I'm not sure if is because I'm not doing the right research or because I'm not doing enough of it.
So, I am back here, with the hope that somebody had some tips on the subject and because I need to take out my frustration somewhere, and my blog seems like the right place for it. I really hate to be a complainer but I can help it, I just want to do so well that I forget that this is a learning process that implies much more than sit in front of a book.
But I will get there, you just wait and see.
