e.g.: I love this hack:

"When you're stuck, make a list of what wouldn't happen next. Lots of times the material to get you unstuck will show up."




Sounds similar to the McDonald's theory:

"I use a trick with co-workers when we’re trying to decide where to eat for lunch and no one has any ideas. I recommend McDonald’s.

An interesting thing happens. Everyone unanimously agrees that we can’t possibly go to McDonald’s, and better lunch suggestions emerge. Magic!"
