Well, I decided to quit my full-time job last week as I’ve been unhappy about it for the past couple of months. I think I needed that final push to break away from the comforts of it and to start a new career. I thought to myself for a while why should I be spending most of my days in an environment that’s mentally and emotionally weighing me down?

Think positive. Stay positive.

Create and make.

Retro Pattern

 

Lately I’ve been really into design patterns that are pretty much 80s/90s inspired: throw in a bit of bad hair, weird fashion, Fanta, days hanging out in the sun with your friends… those kind of vibes.

I recently met up with my friend Amber, a print designer, who I’ve known for years. I was really inspired by her motivation and her reasons for quitting an amazing job she had at a fashion house.

I thought I would end the post on a positive note, having recently been quite down with things. Nothing is impossible. Sometimes you’ve just got to push through the hard times to succeed.
