What’s a “you-centred” design process?
March 27, 2018Life Designer or Life Planner – do you know the difference?
Approaching life with the mindset and behaviour of a Life Designer is the opposite of being a Life Planner.
Life Planners try to spot the perfect solution somewhere out there in the future, Life Planners try to figure out every little detail in their head before making a move in real life.
Life Planners want to forecast every eventuality and are intimidated or paralysed by uncertainty and the unknown. And Life Planner want to find solutions that someone else has already “tested and approved”.
Not so Life Designers.
They embrace uncertainty and challenges because they know about the potential and opportunities they bring with them. Life Designers don’t need to figure out every little detail before taking action. On the contrary, they know that true clarity only comes by taking real life action. Life Designers are not satisfied with generic “one-size-fits-all” solutions because they want to create something individual and authentic.
Life Designers rarely feel stuck. When they experience failures, setbacks or feel lost, they use this moment the pause, asses, use their Life Designing tools and get inspired; because they know that those challenges are often where the best ideas are born.
