Back when I was doing freelance commercial copy writing, I worked well under pressure. When clients gave me tight deadlines it had a tendency to bring out my "A Game" without any coaxing.

Nowadays when I need to get the creative juices flowing, I approach it the way I approach actual juice: you gotta give it a little squeeze. So I'll do writing exercises (or play "Words With Friends") to force my brain into a creative mood.
