Stop being so boring

Here are a few key points from the Snask manifesto. Read them, learn them, hate them and, in the end, understand them and love them:

If you don’t like your work, quit 
If you love someone, let it show 
Generosity always pays itself back 
Always smile when you talk to an
annoying person on the phone 
If you want to be a rock star, don’t
study graphic design 
Talk with clients in the same way that
you talk to your family, friends and pets 
Social skills are as important as
knowing how to set type and spell 
See people as people, not target groups 
Just because you wear a black suit, it
doesn’t mean you’re successful 
Having enemies is good and necessary 
Work hard for your clients: it pays off 
If you look too cute, smile 
Luck doesn’t exist: don’t be lazy 
Learn typography, it’s not optional 
Keep it simple, not tedious
