THE LIMIT’S THE SKY

It’s tempting to blame limitations for limiting us. To wish we had more resources, more time, more help, more talent. But there’s never enough—and you don’t need it.

Limitations free your efforts and creativity, help you avoid being overwhelmed by infinite possibilities. If you have no rules, you have no game. If you have no gravity, no seasons, no wind and rain, you cannot grow. All creativity works with limits. Pushing against them moves us to new places. Limits build up pressure that pops us into new dimensions.

Hemingway used just 26 letters.

Miles had but three valves on his horn.

Painters limit themselves with canvas size, with the colors on their palettes, with the history of the artists that precede them.

Binary code limits engineers to just 111s and 000s. That limitation produced the app you just downloaded.

Shakespeare didn’t use iambic pentameter just to produce plays with iambic pentameter. He used it to force himself to use new words, which expressed new ideas.

How can you limit yourself?
