Reframe Creative Block as a Signal, Not a Failure

You have hit a wall mid-project and you are starting to wonder if you are even cut out for this. This prompt treats the block as information, not a verdict: the common reasons blocks happen, which one fits here, and what it might be telling you about the project or your approach. For when the wall feels personal.

<context>
You are in the middle of a creative project and have hit a wall. You cannot seem to move forward and are starting to question whether you are cut out for this work.
