Hello Designers…..
As u thought yourself… (What is my goal as a designer) all of you have a pre set or post set decent goal in your career…
As it can mention in one sentence………….

"Designing is my life & I wanted to be the best in my track of designing or something else as a successful person in this field"...is it..?
Although some of us eventually say that I can’t live without design...Designing is my only life…nothing else…is it true..?

Lets move an overlook here…What is the influences of designing as a profession in my personal life…lets share it among ourselves to help ourselves…coz we want to be a Good family member at first...Have A Good Day to All……………… :D

kothin .. ektu chinta vabna kore bolbo ... but yes as a profession it takes a bigger time of my everyday life .. just like any other IT profession. and ... ...... to be continued
ok :)
so just like any other IT profession, there's lot of work pressure, lots of challenges to face like getting your boss/clients likes/dislikes, so overall bit mental pressure.. then there are times you even have to work at home and then miss many family events :( . most of the time we have to be on net which adds to more mental pressure ( i read somewhere bout the negative effects of using too much net, cant remember much ), and all these affects my cooking too :) ..after office. But at the end of the day when i get to do something nice and get compliments then i don't feel tired. Bec .i never took it as profession rather it's my passion ..I don't work for a career or it's not that i have to earn a lot .. I just work because i enjoy it so much no matter how hard it is. So maybe it's a matter of time management, prioritizing things so that our normal life don't get affected by our profession.

Mr. akela, again thanks for such an interesting thread (Y) ok lets start with me:
for ART I always inspired by following things:
Gram-bangla
Mofosshol
Historical palaces
Gloomy weather before heavy rain
Birds (speciallyt Bok and Shalik)
Tal gach
gramer haat
Nodir ghat, sathe ekta bishal bot gach and
www.conceprtart.org :)

for Design:I design for my own satisfaction first. ya sometimes client interrupts, but I manage them by somehow. This is why I become less bored in designing :)
I have a good collection of designing books from last 5 years. These are my inspirations. Before start any project I browse those books. Good magazines (Times, Newsweek etc.) and Web are also my inspirations to design and professional work. ooo..my colleagues are also the most inspirational source of my life :)

Here are few of my book list(my collection) by which I inspired:

Index Series:

Logo and Letteread Series:

Business Card Series:

Brochure Design Series:

Image Image

Color and Printing:

Image Image

Misc:

Bibles:

Don't be upset. I haven't read all the books yet :D

Thanks

oo sorry, i missed that part. my profession hampers my family. after office work I do some my own works/studies or researches. On that time I can't spend time with my family. But somehow I manage time for any family get-to-gather or party. :)

Influences! right ?

Ok let me tell something about it...

Health : we are using computer alot and sitting on chair so long.. that's why sometimes i feel back pain much.. Sometimes eyes burning.. which is not good.. Thanks ALLAH. My eyes still ok.. i don't need eyes glass yet. For long time sitting, i got fat bit. Now i’m trying to control a bit. Tension is most common for everyone. Same i have lot tension about work and other. Thought i work with USA and Canada that’s why can't sleep at night well.. Which needed for everyone? Caz i need to conduct meeting and support them most of day.

Social : When i was doing job. That time i missed sometime some social event.. but now i don’t miss any social event and can hang out with friends. I never missed much that. Yea sometime, i missed caz of work pressure.

Family : this is 2008 each and everyone too busy for own.. i’m single for me family mean parents and siblings. They understand life is so busy these day.. so it’s make any problem for me. But i visit my parents place and my siblings place whenever i get change.. ohh yea for any family issue and event i must join... overall I don't miss them that much....

Own Development : i want to learn so many thing. Like photography, motion graphic and some other. But profession keep me away from them. It’s really hard for me manage time for own development. Sometimes it disappoints me.

it’s me like " i don't know anything yet......... i'm just like ZERO"


Akela mama ok ??? kushi ??? akon apnar ta kon.. shoni.. :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Actually I don't much influence of my profession in my personal life cause I don't stick to one single thing. I've different thoughts and different personalities for different people. When i'm in the office, i'm a designer. When i'm in the friends' group, i'm a friend. When i'm at home, i'm a brother or a son. I behave accordingly depending upon the situation. I don't take life too tight so that I can't come out of that even I don't take life too light so that it easily goes away from me... heh heh heh... What say buddies???
