Now, in the corner, it's always actions or whatever that eventually lead you there. With no clear path, no good alternatives, no way to maneuver in your room or the space you made for your task or whatever, and it's that situation, and only in that situation, that in order to get out of that corner you can't really look into common ways or ways which have all already been walked. You have to look into creative ways, new ways, and maybe not some logical ways to come out of it.

So it makes sense you are trapped in the corner, but there are also plenty of reasons why you are trapped. And in some ways you like to be trapped, because it's only now that when you are trapped you actually will do what you want to do with your latent ideas and actually use them for something.

Whilst most could be mundane and trivial, sure, of course you could want something more fruitful, actually much more fruitful. Sometimes you're addicted to wanting to experience that creativity.

Now at bigger stakes the better, and in order to get bigger stakes, you have to raise the bar for how you get trapped and in what situations and what problems. You might get trapped into trivial things or things that aren't truthful, so it's important to also be trapped into something that's special.
