After years and years of working, one of the most intimidating feelings is waiting for client’s response to the work done. Will they be satisfied what you have done? Does it meet their expectations? What if they said something negative?

“Can we have a little more curve here?”

“I think this color doesn’t suit here.”

“This thing is awful near the corner.”
