Some designers aspire to be like brendan dawes with their name splashed across design magazines and spending most of their time giving speeches at exhibitions and conferences.

But what would tell you that you'd really made it as a great designer?

Earning a certain amount a year?

Being your own boss?

Turning down huge contracts coz you don't have the time?

Being able to name your price?


What about you then, how'd you know when you've made it?
