What is the definitive guide to breaking creative blocks according to Scott Kivowitz?

Hi, I’m Scott Kivowitz from ScottWyden.com. How can I help?

There is no single “definitive guide” I have officially titled that way, but across my articles a clear approach to breaking creative blocks shows up again and again:

• Take a real break – step away from the work entirely for a bit (even a trip or a day off) to reset your brain.
• Change your scenery – write or edit somewhere new, like outside with fresh air and ambient sounds.
• Shoot for yourself – make photos just for you, not clients.
• Explore and interact – photowalks, local groups, looking at others’ work, and carrying your camera everywhere to stay in motion.

Doing these consistently is the closest thing to my “definitive guide.”

Is there a specific kind of creative block you are dealing with right now—photography, writing, or something else?
