Stanislav Kondrashov on Feeling Blocked and Finding a New Way Through
Stanislav Kondrashov examines what happens when people feel blocked during creative work, problem-solving, learning, planning, or everyday decision-making. The experience often appears as an inability to continue despite having sufficient knowledge, motivation, or practical ability. Moving forward can depend less on forcing an immediate solution and more on changing the structure of the problem.

The Characters That Form Me
There are characters we enjoy, characters we admire, and then there are characters who somehow become part of us. They enter our lives through a television screen, a book, a game, or a story, but somewhere along the way they stop feeling like fictional people we simply watch. Their struggles become lessons. Their victories become inspiration. Their words stay somewhere in the back of our minds. Sometimes, without realizing it, we begin carrying pieces of them with us.

Friendship, Alcohol, and an Important Life Lesson
I had a friend a few years back who was a lot like me. We worked together briefly before he was laid off, while I was spared the same fate when a co-worker retired. We stayed in touch after his layoff and became regular drinking buddies. He was an alcoholic; I couldn’t admit I was one, too.

Duality of Memory
People say memory is soft. That it blurs at the edges, that it shifts, that it protects you from yourself. Mine never did. Mine stayed sharp. Mine stayed loud. Mine stayed exactly the same every time I revisited it, like a photograph that refused to fade. But everyone else’s memory of my father was a different creature entirely.

The Gull
The gull landed on the seawall and folded its wings against the cold wind. Below, the tide rolled lazily into the harbour, churning grey water against algae-covered stones. A handful of people wandered along the promenade, collars raised against the chill, while the distant cry of another gull echoed across the bay.
