We often get questions about our business, how we started, how can someone learn design, what's the path to success. It feels almost impossible to describe. There are so many paths, so much to learn, so many routes to take. And as thorough as we can be, describing the last twelve years can be overwhelming.
This is the first article that I have found that does a wonderful job with skimming the surface of what we do...
My thoughts; Be passionate. Learn every little thing there is to learn, and then every day do it better than the last. Be nice, and more kind than you every really want to be. Build a reputation and skill that is irresistible. Don't worry about being the business owner, it's not everyone's calling. Find the company that you have obsessed over, and join their team, and then make it that much better by adding yourself. Find co-workers that make the team worthy of working weekends with, laugh with and more importantly, grow with.
