I have the following problem. I have a paragraph and only after this single paragraph environemnt I want to have the text following in a new line. So the original source looks
like this here: 

```
\paragraph{Some title stuff.}

bla bla bla

```

I tried to add `\linebreak`

```
\paragraph{Some title stuff.} \linebreak

bla bla bla

```

and also `\\`, but nothing worked, in each case I got the error message "There is no line here to end".

Anyone an idea how to sort this problem?

Answer: 
You can always cheat the "there is no line here to end" error with empty `\mbox{}`es. For example:

```
\paragraph{Some title stuff.}\mbox{}\\
bla bla bla

```

For convenience you can define your own paragraph before `\begin{document}`

```
\newcommand{\myparagraph}[1]{\paragraph{#1}\mbox{}\\}

```

and just use your new command:

```
\myparagraph{Some title stuff.}
bla bla bla

```
You need something just after your paragraph definition before you can break the line. That something in my case is an empty `\mbox{}`. This is a very elementary way of doing things. It may be automated using [`titlesec`](http://ctan.org/pkg/titlesec), as @Andrey suggests.

\documentclass{article}
\begin{document}
\paragraph{Some title stuff.}\mbox{} \\

bla bla bla
\end{document}
