LPT: When you’re stuck trying to create something (like an idea, plan, message, design, or solution), intentionally write down 3 “bad” or even silly answers first before trying to come up with a good one.

This works because it removes pressure to be correct immediately and forces your brain to stop overthinking. Once you’ve written obvious or flawed options, it becomes easier to see patterns and generate a stronger answer afterward.
