In my youth, I railed against routine because I thought it hurt creativity, while now I realize it frees time for creativity. They say 98% of thoughts we've had the day before, so maybe creating patterns of thoughts, a thought routine, isn't something to shy from, either?

For the sake of your mental health, you’d be wise to remove the words “annoying” and “trite” from your formulation of that understanding. Read it out loud. Now change those words to e.g. “surprising” and “simple.” Read it out loud again. Notice that it feels different?
