#2: Initial revision
Maybe you could write about the problem of coming up with ideas? Write a story about someone who has troubles coming up with ideas. Think about which solutions he might try, and how those solutions work or don't work. This has two effects: First, you already have one idea for a text, and it's something you definitely can relate with. Second, by doing so, you force yourself to seriously think about the problem from a different perspective (namely, from the perspective of a subject of a text, instead of the perspective of a problem _you_ have), and you might just find a solution that works also for _you_ and not just for your protagonist. You wrote: > I am analytically minded: I enjoy identifying a problem, clarifying it, breaking it down, and solving it. So do exactly that with the problem of finding ideas. Take it as a problem just like any others you like to solve.
