So what do you usually do when you reach a plateau? I’ve been stuck on one for months. ☹

It means you’re not progressing and can’t learn any tricks.

I got stuck on a plateau for around 3 weeks. Just the 3 weeks before I posted this.  
Usually, I just practice it, go on YYE forums, homework, practice the plateau again and repeat.

Actually, the things I just listed, I do them everyday, not only when on plateau. Like even when I am progressing, I still do homework, forums etc.
