We all hate write's block, specially book writers, journalist, bloggers, and marketers who love using articles as a marketing tool. We all been there, you are ready to write a post, you even have some ideas of the things you want to talk about and then puzzzz! All the inspiration go away, your mind is completely blank or overloaded of ideas and can't concentrate on one that can be turn into an article.
What do you do when this happened to you?
One thing that works great for me is to stop thinking, and first fine a quite area and relax, then look for 1 or 2 inspirational source of information. These inspirational sources can be articles, other blogs in your industry, videos, pictures, etc.. And then decide between the two which one to focus your writing on now!
Remember focus on only one idea, then you can do as much research as you want to help you provide a great informative peace of content to your readers.
