One thing that helps is to do something entirely different.
For example, I would ask God what a passage means, then continue on and in an entirely unrelated passage, the answer would come to me. And it was a new idea, never thought about it that way before.

I remember when I first heard the word "paradigm", or at least heard it in a way that explained exactly what it meant. We had a phrase in the Navy called "mode locked". It meant basically the same as having blinders on. You get focused to the point of being narrow minded. That leads back to paradigm, meaning the perspective you view things from. If you are sitting at a table with a bowl of soup, the bowl is round. It's round because you are looking down at it. But if you stooped down to the level of the table and looked at the bowl it is only half round. Looking at the bowl from a different perspective changes your paradigm.
I get a lot of ideas by looking at things from a different perspective and not becoming "mode locked". It also helps in interacting with people. Looking at things from their point of view often helps in understanding them.

Sincere consultation (rather than debate or argument) with others is a good way to come up with new ideas or refine already existing ideas.

Proverbs 18:15
Cars, spaceships, mansions, food, board games, being with Jesus and doing things together- because he is my friend.

Proverbs 18:15
The intelligent man is always open to new ideas. In fact, he looks for them.
I still dont know what to seek.. or that seeking is in general. Like, you think about something .. and apply your mind to seek.. I guess thats how. Like, seeking with your spirit.
