I always think the next step will be much better than what I have done before—a chance for redemption, a hope I can erase the past and step into the glowing future.—Sol LeWitt, BOMB 85, 2003

You shouldn’t be a prisoner of your own ideas. Everyone gets into their  own box and enunciates principles, if only in their own mind—you have  your own constraints and your own structure that you think you’re  following, and then you realize that what you’re saying is “I can do  this, but I can’t do that.” And then at some point you say, “Well, why  not?” and the answer is “Because I told myself I couldn’t.” If you keep  telling yourself, “You can,” then you are liberated. If you’re totally  constrained, all that’s left for you to do is break the mold.
