Oh man, my friend's art teacher once told her to "embrace the chaos" in her messy drawings... it actually helped her loosen up.

That "embrace the chaos" advice can be a double-edged sword. In my experience, it only helps if you already have some basic skills to build on. Telling a total beginner to just go with the mess can keep them from learning proper form. It feels like skipping steps. You need some structure first, then you can break the rules later. Letting go only works after you know what you're letting go of.
