Unblock Monday

Describe a problem you're stuck with in a cast and I'll give you a cast-length suggestion (and may link to something else).

Like everything in this channel, people should feel free to jump in. AUA (ask us anything), not AMA.

What are less-known heuristics for self-service unblocking? Some I know and practice include do 100 things, talk to 100 people, etc.

I was originally crafting a cast with a specific problem (as usual, solving for distribution) I realized that the answer is likely the usual heuristics, and actually doing them 🤔

Thank you 🥹 touch grass and memento mori indeed

1. Get fresh air outside on a walk

2. What's the most existential problem you're facing -- if you can only solve 1 thing, what would it be (even if there are 10 other problems).

3. What's the thing I can do today that moves me closer to solving that problem?

Usually find that I get a decent idea for next step

OOOH

So point 2 is especially interesting--for better or for worse, I treat every block as A WHOLE NEW BLOCK rather than variations of blocks I have overcome before

I will make this mental move

Ask yourself:
- Why am I blocked 
- When are times where I’ve overcome this or things similar to this 
- What can I try to address the block
