If you feel trapped in one scene, move on from it. Think of some other story for a while. Try to write a small poem or a smart snippet for a hypothetical ad campaign. When you disengage your mind, you would be able to come back to original scene with a fresh perspective.

The novel that I am currently writing, 'Until Next Time' took six years to finish. I had most of the story done in my mind except the climax. I figured I needed a lot more maturity to do justice to the delicate nature of the set-up. I spent the next six years living my life as best I wanted it to be.

Then one fine day, the climax scene just came to me. I was finally mature enough to understand my own characters.

Sometimes things take time. If a story doesn't come to you, it may be because you are not ready for it yet.(less)

I do, however, avoid doing that while doing potentially dangerous activities such as crossing a busy highway or talking to my wife.(less)

3 Ways to Break the Daily Clutter: “Can We Go to The Next Level, Please?”

There is a lot of talk about excelling and fulfilling our potential. But how does one use this potential to get ahead? One of my favorite examples of such situations are movies like ‘Back to the Future’. There was a time when our imagination exceeded our grasp.
