Process Feeds Habit w/ Maurice Cherry

Welcome to Works In Process / Ep 24 Finding Your Process Takes Time. Knowing when to pivot from one tool to another, and finding the right one that fit(s) into your workflow is super important. What might be good for one person may not be good for you. As with any process and system...you have stick to it, you have to have discipline — you can build the best system, but if you don't use it, it's useless.—Maurice Cherry, Designer / Strategist / Podcaster --- That’s my guest Maurice Cherry. In this episode, Maurice reflects on the early days of the web and how it was a time of great opportunity for anyone with an idea. The origins of his award-winning Revision Path podcast and how 10+ episodes are now part of the Smithsonian's National Museum of African American History and Culture permanent collection. Maurice shares his insights on how to be a successful creative, the importance of community, and how he wants to be a renaissance person. Also, the challenges and opportunities that come with being a person of color in the design industry, and how to create change within the industry. What a blast it was to talk to him.
