Recycling systems and building libraries

Recycle systems you have built

Do not rewrite your SOPs, agendas, presentations, and other tools from the ground up. If certain processes work well for you, recycle them from client to client. Consistency saves time and strengthens your workflow.

In our busy lives, it is easy to fall into familiar habits. Take time to build resources you can integrate into your creative practice. These become the pieces that support you as you design with intention.
