How to reboot your brain to clear all idea-blockages

  1. Break the monotony: Temporarily switch your attention to a different task or hobby. Engaging in something enjoyable or intellectually stimulating, such as reading, solving puzzles, or engaging in a creative activity unrelated to your current block, can help create mental shifts and stimulate new ideas.

  2. Energize: Go for a quick walk, stretch, or engage in a light workout. Exercise improves focus and creativity by increasing blood flow to the brain and releasing endorphins.

  3. Breath: Allow your mind to calm down and concentrate on your breathing. This can aid in lowering anxiety, improving mindfulness, and fostering mental clarity.

  4. Senses: To change your concentration and get through mental barriers, stimulate your senses. Observe beautiful artwork, take in the aroma of fresh air or essential oils, or listen to music. Your perspective can be refreshed and new ideas can be generated by engaging your senses.

  5. Nap: If you're feeling tired or mentally spent, take a quick power nap. A brief snooze of 15 to 20 minutes will help you stay alert and reenergize your mind.

  6. Visualize: Close your eyes and picture the situation you want to achieve or the issue you're trying to address. After that, focus on brainstorming while quickly noting any ideas or concepts that come to mind. This can encourage new viewpoints and break the loop of stuck thinking.

  7. Talk: Talk briefly with a person you respect or who you trust. Ask for their opinions and insights as you discuss your ideas with them. External viewpoints can occasionally offer fresh approaches or answers that you may not have thought about.


5 Bonus Tips to avoid creator’s Block

  1. Be imperfect. Aiming for perfection and establishing unreasonably high standards can put tremendous strain on creativity and make it challenging to launch new projects. This is the number 1 cause of creator’s blocks. Accept, there is no such thing as perfect content. Don’t stress it too much. Embrace your imperfections.

  2. Cut yourself some slack. Physical and mental weariness can result from nonstop work without breaks or respite. Burnout can sap your creative drive, making it difficult to generate original concepts or maintain the motivation to produce. So be humble with your calendar. And spend some time in the activities you enjoy.

  3. Don’t try everything. “Overwhelm” can result from having too many possibilities, ideas, or projects. Focusing on and committing to a particular idea or course of action can be challenging due to the plethora of options.

  4. Accept, you are not an imposter. Being insecure or having doubts about your talents and capabilities might stop your creativity. Creative expression may be hampered by the fear of being exposed as a fraud or of not being "good enough".

  5. Organize yourself. To remain organized, motivated, and consistent during your creative process, you may need some structure or routine. It can be challenging to overcome lethargy and begin creating if there are no clear rules or routines.
