I learned some key things that will definitely help me in the future. I wouldn't consider myself an expert in the field of design, but I am learning. It always feels good when a client can leave feeling satisfied and one step closer to their vision or goal. Glad I could be of service. @Jarrett - Thanks for the "Lesson Learned". You make a good point that it is a much needed thing to take breaks. I have been in situations in the past where my brain was completely fried and I had to step away from a project for a few days just to refresh and regroup. I also know what it is like to work on a time-sensitive project, where I couldn't take the necessary breaks I needed to refresh. I usually leave those projects feeling drained and wishing to never take on another one like that in the future. Yet, one always seems to find itself on my schedule. Because I know this can be unavoidable at times, I'm learning to be flexible, and to take mini-breaks when possible or just work through the project for as long as I can until it's complete. Then I take that needed break. Thanks for the comments guys. @Anthony – It was fun working through this design project. I learned some key things that will definitely help me in the future.

I'd work on something for so long, and not take a break. When I'd finally get a moment away from it, I'd come back and it looked a lot different to me. Then, I'd have to start changing things...

I am the pastor of Transformation C,the church to which Antwon just built the website for. What I love about his work ethic is that he goes high above & far beyond what is expected to ensure that the client is not only pleases with the product, but that he is able to add volume to them. What he does is remarkable.. he helps an individual (or group) find their own personal brand. I will never expect less! Antwon has set the mark! Thanks, bro! Howdy!
