More than Conquerors

What does one do when the words stop flowing? Every exerted effort ceases to produce results, while the time is ticking and the deadline is approaching. Every ounce of inspiration has faded, every planned thought slips the grips of one's preconceived mind. Panic sets in...

Here are some practical ideas for defeating writer's block, once and for all:

- As time permits, put the project aside and do something refreshing.
- Take a step-by-step approach, setting attainable goals.
- Free-write in order to promote creativity.
- Establish a solid foundation of material.
- Re-read through source information.
- Choose a topic that impassions.
- Pray, commiting it to the Lord.
- Ask for another's opinion.
- Do not be such a critic.
- Read a favorite author.
- Listen to music.
- Exercise.
- Re-focus.
