I’ve been very interested in finding out my ‘Why’ recently. I’ve been reading Simon Sineks ‘Start with Why’ and struggled to define my Why, despite it being a very good book, translating it to a design career didnt quite click! I came across this blog post and it contains some very good questions that not only helped me get nearer to a why but also on what I should be concentrating on in my life, what i should be achieving and where I should be spending my money.
