DON'T LEARN GRAPHIC DESIGN.
I know you are surprised to read this title. I am so sorry if this comes to you by surprised.
I knew the past few weeks I've been unveiling the uniqueness of graphic design and how it can make your brand shine brighter. Today I came with a different message. Don't learn graphic design.
Before you pick the stone, before you crucify me, before you tell me how disappointed you are with me. May I ask? Did you ever consider Learning graphics designs after reading all my previous posts? If yes, what did you do to bring that consideration to reality.
If you never thought of giving graphic design a try by signing up for a training. Then you shouldn't judge my present stance. Then you are not among those I owe an apology.
But wait, do I even owe anyone an apology? I doubt it. I stand on my statement, "DON'T LEARN GRAPHIC DESIGN" I won't encourage you to learn a skill that might turn out to be a waste of time. I won't support you to add another skill to your skill set that will be irrelevant.
Does it mean that graphic design is irrelevant? The answer is NO. A skill that got me 6 figures in less than 30 days cannot be irrelevant and if anyone call it irrelevant, then expect the cops soon.
This doesn't mean that I've changed my statement. Before you get totally confused and smash your phone on the floor. DON'T LEARN GRAPHIC DESIGN:
1. IF YOU EXPECT TO BE PERFECT IN ONE WEEK.
If you learn graphic design with this expectation. I assure you, it will end in premium tears. Graphics is not a skill you can learn in a day, it takes process and practice to improve.
2. IF YOU PLAN TO HOST YOUR OWN TRAINING, 2 DAYS AFTER THE TRAINING.
I know you want to make money. You heard 6 figures and your head is standing. You want to rush and sign up for a training so that you will be the next to talk about 6 figures. Sorry in advance, because you will definitely cry. I tell my students to embrace Mastery before they rush to teaching others. Be patient with process. Keep practicing.
3. IF YOU PLAN TO CHANGE YOUR NAME TO LORD OF GRAPHIC DESIGN.
You see that Lord you are planing to put in that your name? E go purge you. Who made you Lord? Because you paid #4, 000 to learn graphics, you now crowned yourself Lord. Weldone, lord of the rings. We will soon dethrone you.
4. IF YOU ARE NOT TEACHABLE.
Graphic design requires creativity, obedience, practice and consistency. If you are not teachable, save yourself the stress and keep taking pictures at your backyard and posting online. You must be ready to learn and open to corrections if you choose to learn graphic designing.
5. IF YOU ARE NOT READY TO PAY.
Yes, the easiest phrase online is, "I'm interested" but 90% turn out never to be interested. I wonder if there is an award given to the person with the highest number of that phrase, "I'm interested". If you are not ready to pay to learn the skill, then don't learn the skill.
You might get free classes on the subject, but you might not get the full package. If you really need the skill, then go all out and get it.
Do I need to remind you the importance of graphic design? I guess you already know what this skill can do for you and your brand.
So if you know that you don't fall in any of these categories, then go ahead and LEARN GRAPHIC DESIGN.
I hope with this few points of mine, I've been able to give you a pass mark to go grab a skill that remains a necessity for every brand.
Got value? Any question? Got anything to say? Feel free.
