NO1.
不要花费太多时间获取灵感，快点开始着手设计。（前者与后者的时间分配是20%和80%）
Stop taking inspiration and start creating your own designs. [20% Inspiration time, 80% creation time]
NO2.
早点把你的设计理念和思路分享出去，并取得反馈。
Open to share your design concepts in early phase and get feedback.
NO3.
插画和图形样式没有特别惊艳也OK，但要是原创的。
Your Illustration/Graphic style doesn’t need to be excellent; it needs to be original.
NO4.
90%的时间会被用在思考和查找如何解决问题，只有10%的时间会花费在画图上。
90% of the time you will be thinking and researching how to solve the problem. 10% of the time you will be designing in the tool.
NO5.
多出去旅行、拍照，这会给你不同的设计视角。
Travel places and take photographs; it will give you a new perspective on design.
NO6.
现实中的人脉关系远比网友重要。
In-person networking is more important than having internet buddies.
NO7.
用更开放的心胸接收不同的观点。
注意：每个人都有不同的理念和想法。
Be open-minded and listen to different perspectives.
Note: Everyone has different principles and perspectives

我100%赞同加粗的那几行字。我相信设计师必须引导内心里的艺术气质，相信自己的风格，不要害怕与众不同，因为差异就是灵感的来源。
I 100% agree with the steps you’ve highlighted. I believe as a designer you should channel the inner artist in you, trust your style and don’t be scared to be different, because being different is inspiring.

NO1 - 错，获取灵感是人类头脑最棒的能力之一，如果没有这个，我们还生活在洞穴之中呢。
NO3 - 也许不是100%，但也还是错了。设计并不是要么经常要么原创。设计应该要能够使用，解决特定的问题并达到相应的要求。
NO1 -Wrong. Inspiration is one of the most significant abilities of human mind. Without it, we would still live in caves.
NO3 — Maybe not 100% wrong but still wrong. Your design shouldn’t be either excellent or original. It should work, solve specific problems and meet the set requirements.
