10 - An early Guru...

We have arrived at Week 10, which means only one thing, Guru’s day.

Surprisingly, I had an early visitor in [Craig Lamb](https://www.linkedin.com/in/craiglambixd), who works at Sky Scanner as a Senior Product Designer.

His advice was useful, as he suggested:

- **First, walks are all close by, progressively getting wider as the user builds their confidence** - **Prompts using chatbots on an app, remind the user** - **Animation – Soothing, calming, heartbeat?** - **Mindspace App, colours phycological** - **Do not create a barrier when logging in** - **Try and take out lots of functionality – look at apps such as ADA and Quartz** - **Map Journey for feelings, triggers, prompts, social que** - **Getting out on your own, Building up confidence** - **Build the app for the individual first, then the social part will come naturally**

**Tightly Defined**

- **Where I use the app** - **What I want to feel** - **So that this happens**

These were some of the bullet points in which I wrote down, that I thought I could take on.

One thing that he said that stood out to me however for having a defined problem that I was designing for, which meant gathering all of my research and being able to take insights and problems from users that I could put into personas which would allow me to have a problem type.

Although, tomorrow is more focused on Guru’s Day.
