When I find myself hitting the wall, creating new challenges really helps me break through that wall. One of the biggest things that's helped me improve was to commit to posting a new photo to my photoblog everyday. I don't always succeed, but having that challenge always there is a great motivator to get out and shoot. If that's not for you there are a lot of resources on DPS and the web for creative ideas. Put limits on your shooting in terms of gear, camera settings, location, perspective, etc. Think about your shots, and what you're trying to communicate with the image. The list goes on.
