Design to solve the problem

We design and build products and experiences to solve human problems. More often than not we may get caught up in the excitement and features of using tools that we make our entire careers about them, and the 'solving the problem' part (arguably the most important aspect) is last on the priorities checklist.
Always ask this throughout the process: what problem do the users have, and how will you solve it? Then, use your skills, resources, and tools to make it happen.
