Drawing Ideas blocked up!

Oh my goodness, I get blocked ALL the time. I can be in the middle of a project and suddenly feel lost (although this might just be my own particular brand of weird kicking in here :P).
I find taking a break, doing something else, looking at other's art perhaps, reading, etc. helps stimulate my creativeness. Helps me focus.
I ALWAYS go online and check out better artists at DA (and there are a TON of them, believe me). I love trying to figure out their methods, seeing all the details they've put into their work. I find it makes me strive to be a better artist, too. But I'm competitive by nature. It helps if you need to "win" so to speak; pretend you're in a contest and skill is the prize.
I would never denounce a talented artist but I can't pass up a challenge :P.
