When I was starting out as a designer I always wondered how other designers spent their time. This video above showcases a some-what average day for me. Obviously everyday is different depending on what I’m working on or what deadlines I have, but I wanted to show a more or less average day.
Here is my day:
5:30am: Wake up
6am: Get out of bed and get ready to workout
6:30-7:30am: Work out (Either gym or walk)
8:30am: Breakfast
9am: Check emails and do other admin related tasks (make payments, follow up on invoices etc)
10am: Start designing and working on any projects that I have going on
12pm: Lunch
12:30pm: Back to work, usually go through emails, check in with the team and then start back designing
3pm: Take a break
5pm: Back to work, usually on personal projects such as the vendor illustration project I’m working on now. Or I might listen to podcast/skillshare tutorials
7pm: Done for the day, I’ll usually have dinner then read or watch netflix to relax before bed
9:30/10pm: SLEEP
Let me know if you enjoyed looking at a day in my life, and leave a comment if you want me to make a video on something else.
