1. Figure out what it is that excites you.
2. Then develop a composition which helps express that emotion.
3. Make informed choices. Use color and techniques which also emphasize, not distract from, your inspiration.
4. But, be daring. Let yourself go. Experiment. Rely on intuition. Allow those accidents to happen.
5. Be wise enough to keep the accidents when they express what you want.
6. Be wise enough to take them out if they conflict with your expression.
There will then be a great marriage between the technical and the emotional within your art.
