Thanks for sharing, Darius.

Burning your bridges – whilst destructive – is often the only way. Someone once told me that, as a freelance designer, you’re never going to be successful unless you’re hungry; you have to _need_ to get out there and find work as much as you have to _want_ to do it.

The last big step change I made did have something of a fiery trail in its wake! I knew what I wanted to do and why I needed to do it but, as is always the case, didn’t know 100% how I was going to get there or if the outcome would meet the goals I had in my head.

Sometimes, you just have to _do it_; hold on to your pants and step off the ledge.
