This is a phrase I frequently say during a project. Trust me and trust the process. It truly is a process, beginning with research, development, conceptual designs, etc. There are steps and methods that every designer follows, even in the smallest of projects. So a client must trust the process because it is that process that delivers amazing work.
I am bringing this up because it has been a phrase I have had to incorporate into my own life. As I am beginning this business I am having to tell myself daily to trust the process. Trust that this IS the right path for me (even though as exciting as it is, it is also very scary). I never could have guessed how much of myself I would give to creating Arlet Designs. It holds my name but it also holds my blood, sweat and a lot of tears.
Now, as I have really begun to put myself and my business out there, I have to remind myself to trust. Trust in myself and my ability to overcome all odds. Trust that I will continue to have the support and love from my family and friends to keep me going. Trust that I will continue to have wonderful clients who give me opportunity to work with them and guide them through the design process.
I have never felt more sure that this is what I am meant to do. Interior design was a passion that snuck up on me. I never thought that this is where I would be or what I would be creating but I am so happy that it did. So, even though I have to remind myself to trust the process, I do trust one thing: I have finally found my passion and in doing so, I have found a little more of myself!
Thanks for reading and come back soon for more!
