"Pour être pleinement libres de créer, nous devons d'abord trouver le courage et la volonté de lâcher prise : Lâcher prise sur les stratégies qui ont fonctionné pour nous dans le passé... Lâcher prise sur nos préjugés, le fondement de nos illusions... Lâche"
— Gordon MacKenzie
Simplified Meaning:
Creating new things requires us to be brave and to release old habits that might be holding us back. This means we can't just rely on what has worked before; sometimes, to make something new, we have to try different approaches. We also need to be aware of our own prejudices and misconceptions, which can cloud our judgment and creativity. Holding onto past grudges or feeling sorry for ourselves keeps us stuck in negative patterns and prevents us from moving forward. Lastly, we must face the fear that deep down, people might not love us. When we let all these things go, we open up a space for new ideas and allow ourselves the freedom to innovate and grow. For example, an artist might have always painted in a certain style because it was successful, but to create something truly original, they might have to let go of that style and experiment with new techniques and ideas.
