During my time in this profession there have been many people who have lessened the results of their residential interior design environment because of their arrogance.

It is a trait of their personality and many times a result of how they practice their professional lives.

The way your run your business, so to speak, is not necessarily the best way to approach the manifestation of your residential interior design environment.

The quickest, most efficient, least expensive, and most productive approach, which is desirable for business, is not necessarily the best for your home.

The supposed end results should not have the same goals.

Your home should be a physical sanctuary from the outside world and where your emotional and psychological self can be expressed.

The “profits” for your residence should be the satisfaction, comfort, and functions of your personal life and not financial.

Be not quick to make a decision. Look at options. Think in terms of longevity.

Most importantly, accept and practice that being knowledgeable and successful in your line of work does not necessarily mean that such can be applied to all other situations in life.

Have the where with all to accept what you don’t know and seek the best guidance there of.

Food for thought.
