The goal is to get citizens designing and discussing facilities. The project does not address system design, but you could use the same model.

If citizens addressed system design in this project it would probably be useful for discussion purposes only, though, as professionals have more tools and knowledge to create good designs. By crowdsourcing bus stop designs, they are gathering ideas that otherwise might not surface.

Sital, now THIS is an article. Thanks for taking the time to put it together - the effort is evident. I too agree that that "doing" part of job searching can sometimes be overemphasized, and in some cases you truly need to step back and ask yourself "how" I'm going to start "doing the doing part." When I face challenges or obstacles that are evidently overwhelming I've found a lot of the strategies you point out to be very useful, especially SMART and and remebering to step outside of my comfort zone.
