The answer you're supposed to say is to push through and keep going and, you know, that works most of time and is a great way to get through.

For me, when I hit the point where it starts getting difficult to write and I'm pausing too much between sentences, I trudge forward a little bit more and then I take a break. I'll read, play a video game, watch a movie, but most likely, I'll pick something up for a little bit and read it. (less)

The Hero Path

We have not even to risk the adventure alone
for the heroes of all time have gone before us.
The labyrinth is thoroughly known ...
we have only to follow the thread of the hero path.
And where we had thought to find an abomination
we shall find a God.

And where we had thought to slay another
we shall slay ourselves.
Where we had thought to travel outwards
we shall come to the center of our own existence.
And where we had thought to be alone
we shall be with all the world.”
Joseph Campbell
