How is Design Thinking connected to humility?

It's so hard to follow the Design Thinking methodology, because it makes you discover that most of your explanations are guesses. It humbles you.

It forces you to:

• Admit that you don't have all the answers. You have to ask your users, observe them, study them. You’re not designing for yourself, but for them.

• Put into discussion your assumptions. There are ideas you’ve fallen in love with, without even realising it.

It’s the best way to create designs that are actually needed.

Be humble. Let the world speak to you.
