Habits save time, but blind routine stifles growth.
Musonius Rufus reminds us,
“We address circumstances not with the right assumptions, but mostly by following wretched habit.”
Mindless repetition kills creativity and invites disruption. Instead, question your actions.
Today, challenge a habit. Break the cycle of “this is how it’s always been done.”
Ask yourself:
- Is this the best way to do it?
- Am I acting out of reason or routine?
