When you feel uninspired and the words won't flow, it may be a good idea to leave your desk for a while and do something that you really don't like doing. Wash the dishes, clean the windows, iron your shirts - whatever needs to be done around the house.
In comparison to these tasks, writing becomes a lot more appealing again. Also, taking your mind off your story for a little while gives your imagination time to work in the background. It is not uncommon that you come up with a really good idea while you are not actively working on your story. Write the idea down immediately, but don't forget to turn off the iron first!

I had a discussion about it with other writers once, and we all agreed that it is vital for every writer to be able to trick their subconscious into cooperation.
