It is time to get energized. And it is with great anticipation that we look forward to the next 1,000 years. The new year is our opportunity to challenge the status quo and blaze new trials. As we all know, we are on the cusp of the most expansive technological revolution in history. And though our technological advancements have broadened our communication with each other, it has the potential to limit our human contact and personal interaction with each other.
Every choice has a consequence.
It is my obligation to help teach those coming behind me. It is my desire to listen and learn more this year than ever before. I am seeking greater understanding of my role as a designer in this world and the contributions I wish to make. This new year will bring forth unexpected opportunities and challenges. However, I know for sure that in order to grow, you must participate.
