When a project starts

	•	Knowing that we are a team: I can spar with my mentor and we come from different perspectives
	•	Set up a way of co-working with the supervisory team
	•	Remenber, this is a learning process, dare to try different methods 
	•	Knowing what am I good at (my core competency) and what would I want to be better at (my learning goal)
	•	

During the project

	•	Consultation start best by trying to explain the current state of the project first in concise few sentences, and then being given advises
	•	Using visuals to communicate
	•	Always ask 'why' and 'how' 
	•	Learn from other people’s thinking process and logic 
	•	End the consultation with actions points (what to do next?)
	•	When feeling stuck, taking a look at other’s project or  being reminded the basics helps (i.e. principles of doing research)
	•	

When a project ends

	•	Knowing what is done is not, and be proud of it! 
	•	The last push is being able to wow the audience, imagine pitching the project to a design lead
	•	Enjoy the journey, and make it mine!
