Writing Tip: Are You Experiencing "Writer's Block?"
No, you're not.  True Writer's Block is extremely rare.  You are experiencing a lack of imagination because you have not ingested enough information on the topic.  Simple fix: more input.  Go read a book.  Or go watch a documentary on the topic you're trying to write about.  Your "Writer's Block" will magically disappear, every time.

I find when I lie down and rest is when my greatest creativity flows. something about meditation or rest that stirs the ability to write.  Thanks @inertia

I have this impression that "writer's block" is just a fallacy we uphold to justify our laziness or lack of inspiration sometimes
I usually believed in that before until I realized there are diverse things I can do when I lack inspiration in order to motivate myself to write
Now, when I'm stuck with my pen and paper and nothing to write, I simply take a walk outside and come back and write all I saw

Always see this to my students, they can't form/write their ideas, because they they know the concept and they don't even understand it.

It turns out, the teacher needs to re-explain, re-teach all over again.

I have often viewed my brain as a cool machine: I put interesting stuff in and more interesting stuff comes out. Its why I don't really feel like its arrogant or rude to be excited by the ideas /writings/art  that "we" created,  I'm just  amazed by what comes out sometimes  0_0

"writers block" 
I believe what the post said because you have not ingested enough info, you need to be creative,leave in the world of imagination and then putting something down wont be a problem.

Yes! My tips are: Dont give a damn about what you write for some time. Dont think of what to write, instead write whatever comes to mind. It might just be jibberish, random words etc. Doesnt matter, first step it to get into the writing again.

Never stop reading, and always keep an eye on what famous writers like Kurt Vonnegut, Stephen King, Conan O'Brien, Jerry Seinfeld, and many others are saying about the strategies they use to write wellโ€”you never know when you may discover something new.

This is true. The fact is that 
>an empty vessel can only produce nothing but a very loud resounding noise. 

you cannot give out information if you don't have. 
for anyone to give out any reasonable information the people must be loaded with words and ideas.
> if you are not informed, you are deformed.

This is so true, one can't really say he is having writers block if he reads lots of articles or watches a lot of documentaries. People who feed their minds with a lot of information never seize to have what to share at every point in time. So you are perfectly write .

I find when I rests and rest is the point at which my most prominent inventiveness streams. something about reflection or rest that mixes the capacity to compose. Much appreciated @inertia
