Focused execution
Month 1 — Learn the fundamentals
Check off tasks as you complete them. Small, consistent progress compounds.
Month checklist
Work through these in order, but revisit any skill that needs more practice.
Month-end deliverable
A clear finish line helps you practise with purpose.
Remember: Don't just copy a tutorial. Rebuild the idea in your own way, explain one decision, and note what you would improve next.
Repeatable weekly rhythm
Your daily learning routine
Target: 4–5 hours per day, six days per week. Adjust this to your real schedule.
01 · Learn
45 min
Study one focused concept. Take notes on what it does and why it matters.
02 · Practise
60 min
Recreate a small interface, component, or layout using the concept.
03 · Build
90 min
Work on your own project without following a tutorial step by step.
04 · Observe
30 min
Study strong design examples. Identify hierarchy, spacing, and patterns.
05 · Improve
30 min
Find three issues in your work and make a deliberate improvement.
06 · Document
15 min
Save screenshots and write what you learned. Share when useful.
Use one lighter day each week to review, gather inspiration, organise files, and plan the next week. Your goal is consistency, not burnout.
No sessions logged yet. Your first one starts the streak.

Learn in public
LinkedIn publishing plan
Three thoughtful posts each week. Keep learning the priority; let posts document your progress.
Monday · Learning
What I'm learning
Share one principle, a screenshot, and how you applied it.
Wednesday · Process
My design process
Show a wireframe, earlier version, or mistake you corrected. Explain why.
Friday · Progress
Weekly progress
Share what improved, what still needs work, and what comes next.
Your Day 1 post idea: “I'm beginning a 90-day journey into UI/UX and Product Design. My goal isn't just to make attractive screens; I want to understand why a design works, what problem it solves, and how it improves someone's experience.” Attach a screenshot of your first exercise and be honest about being a learner.

Notes & weekly reflection
Keep a record of what you learn, questions you have, and what you want to improve.
Learning notes
Useful concepts, references, questions, or feedback.
Weekly review
Review honestly, then choose the next small improvement.
90-day review
At the end of the trial, decide whether product design suits you based on the work and the process—not just likes or views.
