Analyze yourself and find out what interests you most, what
do you love to talk about, what do you observe the most
around you, what is the ever refreshing thing that you love
to do without getting tired.
-
You have to relate it to the areas of design that you really
are interested in. You will find your answers when you think
about your hobbies. What attracts you most, can you sit the
whole night and work on and still not feel tired? You can
make your hobby, your passion into your career.

Design is not just about good drawing. A designer need not always
be a good in drawing or an artist. A designer is a
person who observes and has a sense of imagination. An
artist can create a beautiful flower whereas a designer
would use this flower on any product to create an excellent
design. Hence choose if you want to be an artist or a
designer. Remember both are very different careers.
-
Analyze what you really want to do in future. If you see
yourself enjoying graphics and like watching media
advertisements, etc. you could be a good graphic designer or
a concept designer. Look at your strengths and weaknesses to
decide upon a career which you would enjoy.
-
Talk to your friends and people who are already pursuing this
course or career. Learning from someone with experience
always gives a better idea about things
which you
wouldn't have even thought of. Ask questions!
-
Look for a course of your choice first and then find out
which all institutes are offering such courses.
-
DO NOT go the other way round. REMEMBER CHOOSE A COURSE,
WHICH YOU WOULD ALWAYS ENJOY.
