Know the basics.
In visual art that means you need to learn the colour wheel and how the three primary colours, yellow, red and blue, create all the other colours when they are mixed together. In clay work that means you need to learn what kind of clay to use to make a certain object. Not all clays are the same; you wouldn't make a tall elegant vase on the potter's wheel out of rough sculpture clay. In yoga asana work that means you need to learn the foundation of each pose. In standing poses it is your feet. Basically, the foundation of each yoga asana is what touches the floor.
Know the basics because that is where you begin. You have to extend away from something.
