1. Acceptance 

As stubborn as I am, I accept the times when I have Writer's Block. It's normal for writers to have this. In the beginning, I usually don't freak out. I have time to figure out what I want to write about. However, it's a different story when I have not figured it out yet. I have a brand to uphold and it's not always easy coming up with unique topics.

2. Seeking Inspiration

Trending topics can easily be the inspiration behind my next piece. As a result, a lot of writers can be writing about that topic, which discourages me from writing about that topic. Nevertheless, I reflect on my experiences and figure out how to make my experience resonate with the audience or educate them.

3. People outreach

When I cannot find inspiration within myself, I don't stop. Next best thing: I ask other people. I sometimes ask my Instagram followers about what should I write about next. I enjoy doing this because they offer brilliant ideas and new perspectives arise. I ALWAYS take everyone's suggestions into consideration. Especially this week. Everyone suggested good topics. However, I did not have the inspiration to write about those particular topics at that time. It's annoying. Nevertheless, I may write about those topics in the future.

4. Distraction

Step away from your piece. From my experience, the more I look at a blank word document, the crazier I get. Talk about being productive. Give yourself a break from writing. Go on a walk. Read a book. Listen to music. Participating in enjoyable hobbies puts me in a better mood. Moreover, it can even spark some creativity.

5. Procrastination

Consequently, procrastination can stem from distractions. I am guilty of this. I will be too invested in doing everything but writing. Don't @ me. Anything is more exciting than sitting around not knowing what to write about. Before I know it, I spent the whole day doing everything but write. Productivity at its finest.

6. Defeat

At this point, I am either freaking out, frustrated, or maybe even both. I cannot get myself to produce any content. The best way to respond to defeat is to not be hard on yourself. I give myself reassurance. Writing is not easy. I will figure it out eventually. This is how I look at it: when you force a fart out, you will get shit.

7. Aha Moment

For those who don't know, that Aha Moment AKA the Eureka Moment is the common phenomenon when someone suddenly discovers an idea or a solution to a previous problem. Aha moments are underrated. I LOVE WHEN THIS HAPPENS. My creativity has sparked and I am on a roll. Don't disturb me. I am too busy typing pure genius content.
