Here's to a Design-Filled 2011!

Well, I have to say 2010 turned out to be a most extraordinary year. I worked on some great design projects (the photo above being part of one of them), met some awesome new people, forged great new working relationships and strengthed others. I have no doubt that 2011 will prove to be an even better year. 

What do I attribute this success to? I would say that it's definitely all about ATTITUDE. I wake up each day expecting great things to happen, and then I go out into the world and MAKE those things happen. Good things do not simply fall out of the sky and land in your lap; you must be creative in your thinking, assertive in your actions and confident in your abilities.

Of course the trick too is to recognize something good when you see it. Sometimes an opportunity is disguised as a problem, an obstacle or even a failure. How you handle yourself in these times and how you proceed makes all the difference in the ultimate outcome. I, for one, look to this New Year with promise and hope of great things!

"I am the master of my fate; I am the captain of my soul." - William Ernest Henley

Happy New Year, dear friends!
