Hi,
I’m Esteban the creator of tipsomechange.com
So what is tipsomechange.com? Moreover, it is a tool for young designers, and not that young, who want to make some change in their professional life to affect their personal life, or vice versa. The idea came to me when designers I thought were outstanding were getting average grades, or not getting job offers. I realized that how they dealt with
external design factors was what was dragging them down. Factors, which are supposed to be known by senior stuff, but that I believe everyone should know as soon as possible. Therefore, I will talk about topics ranging from public speaking, how to find a job in the design world, how to approach people at networking events,… to why you should meditate or travel alone. I will also explain what all this brings to the table and why it will make you different from the vast number of employees in the market. I love having conversations with people and if I can help them I will. Talking with friends or random people on the street, from different ages I realized they encounter conflicting situations I had already encountered before. If they ask for it, I will always give them my advice, and even when they did not follow it I was happy they could use it to discern their own solution to their situation. So, in this blog you will find stories on how did I tackle different situations. How some of my friends did it with other situations, and used their advice when it happened to me. Furthermore, I will write tips on how to improve a specific aspect of your personality (e.g.: be better at public speaking). Last but not least I will talk about design, experiments, new products, or thing that might just be interesting enough to be here. Every article, will have a space for comments, where you will be able to ask me as many questions as you like. I promise I will try to answer them all! Thank you for taking the time to read through my blog and I hope you find it useful and I see you there. Cheers,
Esteban
