“Accept it! you are not Smart Enough” Will Make You Smart

So I was so overconfident about myself I didn’t like to take any negative feedback about my design. For this reason, my design never really evolved. That’s why I came up with this realization that if I am respectful to others' feedback and be an idiot to them rather than a self-obsessed satisfied all-knowing, maybe I could be a gainer than the loser. long story short I could be a jackal under sheepskin in a good sense.

Last day I was scraping my old design. What I was so proud of. Suddenly I felt so shy to look at myself.

I was so proud of my design that I don’t even know who the f* is Pablo Picasso. just an old freak man.

We love what we learn the first time. we are emotionally attached to that design or creative thinks we create. But day by day we grow even after 7 years of my design journey I do horrible design and people around me who are not designers but understand what is good design give me feedback about it and I like it now. Because I want to be an idiot like that jackal who put on sheepskin.

idiot is a term for the people who think they are the center of the world .but there the other idiots who are the people of excellence but don’t show up. out of fear of not being welcomed by the people. people are not going to search for talent. talent has to show up. it could be a joke for the first time, people could mock you. but I think you should give it a chance to try it at least three times. this is my 3rd time writing. my 3rd writing on medium. so people mock me. I will accept, I will grow, I will be a jackal. oh, Allah (God) help me!
