Michael McDonough's Top Ten Things They Never Taught Me in Design School

Over at Design Observer. Well done.

Design Observer: writings about design & culture: Michael McDonough�s Top Ten Things They Never Taught Me in Design School:

"1. Talent is one-third of the success equation.
Talent is important in any profession, but it is no guarantee of success. Hard work and luck are equally important. Hard work means self-discipline and sacrifice. Luck means, among other things, access to power, whether it is social contacts or money or timing. In fact, if you are not very talented, you can still succeed by emphasizing the other two. If you think I am wrong, just look around."
