During the second project of my first year studying CMGT, I ran into the issue of perfectionism.
I've always been a perfectionist but usually I would have the time to figure it out and make something

However, the project had two week deadline and I wanted to do so much more than we actually
had time for. This resulted in me really needing to tell myself that enough is enough and
I needed to learn how to manage better. Read more

I had underestimated the time it would take me to get used to Maya. Read more

As a designer, my role is to lead and guide the team to a hopefully good conclusion of the project.

This lead to the fact that when I was finally paired with another dedicated and capable designer as well as fast and reliable group members from other roles, that I struggled with letting go of certain tasks and trusting the team to be able to figure tasks out themselves.
