Here's a nice Brief Message by Clay Shirky of NYU's ITP program...200 words (or a little less) on a designer's need for a harmonious balance of arrogance and humility in order to create effective solutions.
Arrogance without humility is a recipe for high-concept irrelevance; humility without arrogance guarantees unending mediocrity. Figuring out how to be arrogant and humble at once, figuring out when to watch users and when to ignore them for this particular problem, for these users, today, is the problem of the designer.
