Idk who else noticed, but when he said “all you have to do to is like this video” at around 0:30 seconds, the like button gets highlighted😮 never seen this before

Keep going to us, self-taught UX Designers!!!

You're not only a good UX designer you're also an amazing video creator 👏💪

[jewelthompson]

I am SHOCKED at how expensive some of these courses are. Thank you for presenting alternatives. So many youtubers who discuss UX design don't mention how unnecessary spending $10k + on a course is. You can 100% learn how to design on your own w/o spending a ton of money.

@andresthedesigner, you are such a BIG motivation. May your lights never die. Thank you

[martineiradukunda]

Great way to start the video. Getting right to the watcher and painting someone who we can relate too. I love that

[fayazjumani]

Man! You are great. 🔥 Your video editing and communication skills gives me really good motivation for striving in ux design. Or what i can say in better words is that ( it gives goosebumps ). Thank you so much and keep this up. ❣️

[BethRichLife]

Thank you. Most people who talk about being self taught never actually say what they did or they did a boot camp which is not the same. I was feeling hopeless and now I have hope.

[adhingrha]

Great informational video as always! You even gave shoutouts to the fellow designers 🔥 So humble
I've done all the steps for these past 4 months and all I need to do now is keep going just like what you told. Thank you, man! Keep inspiring!

[meroechill]

[MomWTFpodcast]

Ok, I've watched a few videos, but this one made me subscribe. Thank you for your hard work and encouragement. You've helped me in more ways than you know just in a few videos. I was feeling so discouraged with my learning process and this just gave me the boost I needed to continue.
