Applying My UX Mindset to Life’s Hardest Challenge
“What lies behind us, and what lies before us, are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.”
When we face a new assignment, project, or health challenge, it’s easy to doubt ourselves.
I found I had the same questions when I started breast cancer treatment that I ask myself at the beginning of every UX design project I work on:
~ Am I capable of doing this?
~ What do I need to get started?
~ Who can help me along the way?
~ How will I know I’m making progress?
During 14 months of active treatment, I found the answers using the same approach I take at work: take a deep breath, make a plan, and trust my strength.
I told myself “I can do this.”
I leaned on my support squad for help and shared wisdom.
And milestone by milestone, I felt proof of the progress I was making and my growing resilience.
Whatever you’re facing today, trust what’s inside you—it really is greater than what’s behind or ahead. ✨
