    Taking a break from the task can be surprisingly effective. Whether it’s a short walk, a quick workout, or doing something unrelated like cooking or cleaning, stepping away from the problem allows the mind to relax and reset. Often, inspiration strikes when you’re not forcing it.

    @bianca_tanase Great advice! Taking breaks really can refresh the mind and spark new ideas. Do you have a favorite activity you turn to when you need a mental reset?

    @bianca_tanase That sounds so refreshing! I also find that getting outside helps clear my mind. For me, hiking in nature, playing a game of tennis, or swimming are my top choices for a mental reset. Each of these activities gives me a change of scenery and a boost of energy.

    Breaking the task into smaller chunks and focusing on one small part at a time helps me get unstuck

    Stepping away from the task and engaging in a different activity, like taking a walk or chatting with some else. It leads to fresh ideas when I return to the task with a renewed perspective. This simple reset can make a big difference in boosting creativity.

    Refreshing breaks that means break that doesn't involve technology, just clarifying that listening to song doesn't include in technology. I just listen to songs, go out with friends or maybe just go for a walk and change the environment to relax my mind.

    When I hit a creative wall, I surround myself with inspiration. I browse design blogs, visit museums, or flip through old magazines.

    To overcome creative block, I like to schedule free writing sessions. I set a timer and write down whatever comes to mind, no matter how silly or nonsensical it may seem.

    Sometimes, the best way to overcome a creative block is to talk it out with someone else. I might bounce ideas off a colleague, friend, or even an online community.

    For me it's always talk to people. Talking to people from different background, culture; people of different ages who holds different opinions. Really helps me to see a bigger picture

    Hmm, in my case, sometimes it helps me to just rest a little. Especially when I'm fixated on something creative and have been doing it for a very, very long time. At some point it starts to fail and I just break away from this job. Because there is simply no point in continuing😞
