Maybe give yourself a week or two off the project.
It's not rare that inspiration strikes when I have some distance from a knotty problem I am trying to solve.
When you come back to it you might find the solution falls into place

if (scenario == 7)
{
    // Do something
}
else if (scenario == 25)
{
    // Do something else
}

Yes, there were times, I'm sure you knew
When I bit off more than I could chew
But through it all, when there was doubt
I ate it up and spit it out
I faced it all and I stood tall
And did it my way
