Learn to love your limitations from "summary" of Steal Like An Artist by Austin Kleon

Our limitations are not a bad thing. They are what make us unique. They force us to get creative and work around them. For example, if you can't draw hands, maybe that becomes your signature style. Embrace your shortcomings, and use them to your advantage. When we try to do everything, we often end up doing nothing well. By accepting our limitations, we can focus on what we are good at and excel in those areas. This allows us to stand out and be recognized for our strengths rather than blending in with the crowd. Limitations can also push us to think outside the box. When faced with constraints, we are forced to come up with innovative solutions. These limitations can be the catalyst for new ideas and ways of working that we may not have considered otherwise. Instead of seeing limitations as roadblocks, view them as opportunities for growth and creativity. Embrace your imperfections and use them to fuel your work. Remember, nobody is perfect, and our limitations are what make us human. Embrace them, and you will find that they can be your greatest asset.
