One of the biggest hacks you can do while drawing is to trick your analytical brain. Our brains are wired to treat the problem in one way and this is one of the reasons why we get stuck while drawing.
In one of the experiments done to prove this, some art students were asked to do a Picasso drawing upside down. They improved significantly when drawing the upside picture as their brains treated the problem differently. Rather than seeing the objects in the picture, the students saw shapes with which the picture was made of.
It was also found that while brain participates as a whole in certain activities, some activities like drawing require just one mode without the significant interference from the others.
So if you are struggle to draw a picture, try approaching it in a different perspective.
