We aren’t creating; we are shaping with constraints. A fashion designer doesn’t make fabric—they work within the boundaries of what’s already there, giving it shape.
Let’s imagine life as a fashion designer without constraints. It’s impossible, even the fabric as a category is a constraint, setting limits on what’s possible. Without those limits, the designer faces an infinite field of fabric AND possibilities. That’s the paradox of freedom without constraints—limitless potential, but no shape.
Constraints give form to the infinite. We aren’t just designing; we’re transforming limitless potential into something meaningful.
Are you shaping the infinite into something with purpose, or is too much, toomuchness overwhelming you?
