At the end of that post, I asked you to share your tips and tricks for battling creative blocks and burnout by tweeting, using the hashtag #BeatTheBlock.
Quite a few of you responded and here are a few of my favorites…
Walk away and do something else creative like listen to music, draw, paint, or workout.

Exercise! I do some of my best thinking either in the gym or on the trails. Definitely gets my mind moving.

Change your view. Look at what you want to get out of the learning (from an end user’s perspective). Interview a couple end users, asking how they see the piece you’re struggling with. Sometimes when you can see the bridge from the other side, you can better figure out how to get across it.

Jackie Van Nice
I try getting a different perspective – brainstorm with a colleague always helps!
