Vuja De: Seeing things for the first time although they’ve been there all along. Also known as an awakening, “aha moment”, Helen Keller moment.

Dreamers of Day
Designers are an odd lot: creative, moody, pensive, thoughtful, weird. But the one characteristic that separates designers from others is action. They make stuff that didn’t exist before. They take the idea living deep inside their head and pull it out, realizing it in a drawing, prototype, or product. Unlike most people, they don’t just think about it. They don’t just brainstorm. They don’t just imagine something better and then talk themselves out of it. Instead, they act.
They are, in the words of T.E. Lawrence, dreamers of day.
“All men dream; but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds Awake to find that it was vanity; But the dreamers of day are dangerous men. That they may act their dreams with open eyes to make it possible.”
T. E. Lawrence (aka Lawrence of Arabia)
