Goodreads asked Robert D. Calkins:

How do you get inspired to write?

Robert D. Calkins By not writing. Seriously. The best way for me to write effectively is to step away for awhile and do something different. In particular, go for a hike or a training search with my dog. Doing something different clears my mind and gets me ready to write again.
