Do you have a way to organize your day to maximize your work ?
I have sticky notes to remind myself what I have to do/to write a list, and I give myself a tight deadline (earlier than what my clients request) to do well. I also don’t sleep until I finish my task.

Make Vietnamese Ice Coffee, go for a bike route, and play some dope music loudly. Gotta make every day like my last and dance to it and then be inspired by everything and anything and I always find more stuff to be inspired by, like Behance, tumblr or art books or fashion instagrams, and then play some video games with the homies.
Aside from your computer and your phone, what gadget can you not you go without?
Probably my hairtie or zippo, my hair gets in my face sometimes and smoking helps relieve stress for me too.
