Usually I give the opposite of this advice, because people need more fundamentals and less concept. But I think you should spend time examining your personal ethics, your lifestyle, etc, and how that affects the work you make. It is affecting the work you make, whether you like it or not. Think about how short life is and if you're spending a fraction of your precious time making something, what do you really want to make?

I'm not saying that's wrong at all. I'm just saying that you could go *so* much further and do something *really* cool. It's fine if your work is ultimately vapid, but it could be vapid in a better way than any of the other shit out there.

Right now you're on track to be a designer that works for a slick NYC ad firm that makes cool but ultimately forgettable commercial art. However, if you dig deep, you could be like mucha: still making vapid commercial art, but it's unbearably cool and completely unforgettable.
