Practicing is important - We can’t creatively grow when we don’t practice. Dream it, try it. Do it. Do it again. You won’t know where you will end up till you try!
The design thinking process marries both creativity and critical-thinking skills. When
designers generate lots of ideas and test them, they are more successful!
Why?
Trying LOTS of new things lets us figure out what we like and being comfortable with failure when we don’t like something.
It forces us to keep our mind open, to try out many different ideas and not get too invested in just one.
Studies have shown that trying multiple approaches is successful more frequently than trying just one single option. So if one method or design doesn’t work for you - try another one!
