Taking a break helps a lot. I like to multitask for this reason and to not feel like wasting time. Also, important to remember to eat. There’s an obvious drop in my clarity of mind right before lunch.
100%. Really, just go do something other than what you’ve been focusing on, then come been to it. When I was coding, I would go take a walk when I’d get stuck. 9 times out of ten the answer would pop into my head when I’d stepped away. A few times I even dreamed of the answer while sleeping.
What I do is I read over something, take a nap, and then read it over again. If I don’t get it after that I’ll ask someone for help.

The unconscious mind processes what you were doing during REM sleep, so it’s really efficient way of getting things done.
First taking a nap and only then asking for help. I like this approach.
