This happens more often than I'd like to admit. More often it's on work chat or a call, but the principle holds: I try to explain my problem to someone else and while deepening the explanation, I get a face-palm moment (the answer was there all along!), thank the person for its time and franticly start working on the solution.

Rubber ducking can be a highly productive measure when your mentally clouded and can take many forms.
