I try to write the bits that come easily first, like the best bits: the bits that feel like they're already almost there. I'll tackle the bits that I can already see. That's quite a good way of playing around with what the story is. You think, “let's try this bit in the middle, and let's try the ending, and then let's try this other idea”. Then you have five minutes of material to start you off.
