I’ve been stuck in this mindset where I can’t think of any good website ideas, or game ideas, or anything really. I want to get out of this mindset by thinking, “What should I make?”, or “What do I need to make?”.

I still follow peoples advice on “go take a walk and think about it for a bit” and “you’ll get one soon” and things like that. Those don’t seem to work.

All I need is advice on how I can make myself come up with ideas for projects that would let me do something with my free time. Any help would be appreciated!
