Good God no!!! ... definitely not mutually exclusive in my humble and subjective opinion!
Hang on whilst I think this through ... I may contradict myself, just bear with me.
I have found that I have, at times, reached a plateau where I seem to be doing anything the same sorts of things.
I figure that at any one time, I have a number of moves in my repertoire, and each move has a number of different implementations (or styles).
Straight away, my self expression is limited to my repertiore. Once I have explored and expressed that repertiore to my utmost, I hit a glass ceiling.
To smash through that ceiling? .... expand or change repertiore, either through new moves, or different styles of existing moves.
Hope that makes sense!
