What is one communication or business skill an aspiring fashion design student should have learned and adquired during their college years?
Since the fashion industry is both art and business related, I just wanted to see what other previous or current fashion design students or even business and communication students would recommend as the most important skill to have to thrive well in the industry. Of course it doesn't have to be fashion major related but I just said so in the question since I want to be a future fashion designer.

Life Guidance: What do I do Where do I go? (Sports/Creative/Business).?
I am a freshman in college going down the route of graduating with some sort of Business degree. I have found myself to be a creative person from a young age, which I’m not sure a business major fits. I loved drawing, designing, and coming up with ideas. I still do, it is just that TENNIS has become an addiction for the past few years. However, I no longer have a tennis team to participate in which drives me nuts. With this information, I know I would love to be a part of the sports industry. I find the roles of management, marketing, designing, fashion, and coaching to be interesting careers. I also wouldn’t mind being a part of entertainment (concerts, film sets, etc.). I'm just unsure of where to go after understanding these things about myself.
