You Learn by Educating Others

I was struck by these words that Jacob Cass said while we recorded an episode of the Honest Designers Podcast with him yesterday. He spoke how his blog has brought him amazing work opportunities and all he did to start was to teach the things he was learning at university.

It's on that journey of having to break down our process to teach others where we learn the most. Just from me doing these little mini-tutorials on Instagram I've learned more about Procreate, my art form and why I do certain things with my lettering.

Try doing it, even if you've only just started yourself. There are always people just a step behind you that will find your teaching helpful and it's amazing how you'll grow while doing it.
