I Believe That Treating Other People Well

I Would Say This To My Students All The Time, It's About 30% You As The Teacher And 70% About Them. They Tend To Think That Their Role Is To Be The Baby Bird In A Nest And You're Going To Feed Them? They're Going To Feed Themselves, Or They're Going To Starve.

I Love Shopping On A Budget. I Believe That More Fashion Mistakes Are Made By People With Deep Pockets Than By Those Who Shop On A Budget.

You Can Be Too Rich And Too Thin, But You Can Never Be Too Well Read Or Too Curious About The World.

I Am A Stickler For Good Manners, And I Believe That Treating Other People Well Is A Lost Art. In The Workplace, At The Dinner Table, And Walking Down The Street--we Are Confronted With Choices On How To Treat People Nearly Every Waking Moment. Over Time These Choices Define Who We Are And Whether We Have A Lot Of Friends And Allies Or None.

I Have A Very Socratic Approach - I Pummel The Designers With Questions, So When I Get Them To Step Back From The Work And Look At It With Me, They'll Eventually See What I See, Coming To It Fresh And Unencumbered. That's Always Very Gratifying Because They Feel A Responsibility And An Ownership Of A Solution.
