struggling to think of different techniques for each task.

as i am quite a controlled person, and find it difficult to get out my comfort zone and try other medias in the fear of producing work i don't like and don't feel is good enough, I've found it hard to think of a range of different techniques to apply to the tasks, especially when i have found the weekly tasks similar, e.g. collage task and and shape task.
 - for the shape task i decided to use collage as a technique to create the shapes, therefore when i came to the collage task, i was struggling to think of something different, and when i did try to create something, i was not happy with it as i had not settled on a specific technique i felt really worked and suited my ability.
it was also frustrating and quite overwhelming when researching techniques for inspiration, it was hard to see such great ideas which i could not feel i could achieve conceptually or technically.
though this was frustrating and therefore lead me to putting off the tasks as long as i could, when it came to it, and i had to sit and research and develop on potential techniques, it made me work on ideas until i was happy and not just settle, therefore it has developed my style and made me think of other ways to work other then what i enjoy and feel i can do.
