When you have a problem with a project your working on, or a paper or whatever, where do you look to find inspiration? When your mind is blank, and your trying to find a way to solve a problem. Do you go some place, or do you look at a certain picture, or just sit around and hope you'll think of something?
Most of the time when I have a problem, I just look around at random stuff, and usually one object will stick in my mind for some reason. Even if it has nothing to do with my problem. If I start thinking about it, how it works, what it's used for etc. usually somthing will pop in my head related to my problem, and I just run with it. That usually works... Usually. I think it's just the act of getting your mind going again that makes that work. Even if it's about something that's not related to your problem, it just gets your brain warmed up and working again, and kind of opens it up to a different way of thinking about your problem.
But anyway, I've reached a road block on the project I'm working on right now, and I've been stuck on this for a couple weeks now. I can't seem to find anything that works well. So I was wondering what other people do, when they're stuck on something, to try and come up with a solution.
