🎯 6 Things Every Web Designer Probably Needs to Hear
Whether you're freelancing or grinding at an agency, these truths will keep your designs sharp and your mindset sharper:

1. 💡 "Pretty" Doesn't Always Convert
You can craft the most beautiful UI ever — but if it doesn't help users take action (click, buy, book, read), it's not effective. Function over fluff wins every time.

2. 🧠 Clients Don't Know What They Want Until They See It
Expect a little back-and-forth. Your job isn't just designing — it's translating fuzzy ideas into polished, strategic visuals.

3. 🔁 Feedback Isn't Personal
When someone says "Can you move this over here?" or "This doesn't feel right," they're not attacking your skills — they're trying to articulate what they can't yet explain. Be the translator, not the ego.

4. 🚀 Speed Matters
A gorgeous site that takes 9 seconds to load is a bounce magnet. Optimize images. Minimize code. Make it snappy.

5. 🎯 You're Not Just a Designer — You're a Problem Solver
Good design solves problems. Whether it's user confusion, poor conversions, or slow loading times — your design is the solution.

6. 🔄 Trends Fade — Usability Doesn't
Neumorphism? Brutalism? They come and go. But clean hierarchy, readable fonts, and intuitive navigation? Always in style.

✍️ Bonus: Keep Learning
New tools, new tech, new devices. Stay hungry, stay curious. Great designers don't just evolve — they lead the evolution.
