Have you ever had an object in your way that you needed to walk around to get past? You get so used to walking around this object that it becomes natural to you. But once you move whatever it was that was in your way you're not used to it and everyday you keep walking around the object as if it was still there. It's a silly phenomenon that happens to me, and sometmes I just laugh at myself at how silly I probably look dodging around an object that doesn't exist in that spot anymore. Other times when I catch myself doing it I make myself stand in and walk through the spot that it once stood, so that I can break the cycle.
Another funny thing about cycles...
Everyday you go through a cycle. My morning cycles are all the same, get up, go to the bathroom, put my contacts on, brush my teeth, take a shower...etc. But once I break a cycle and I do one thing before another and I don't think about it I sometimes catch myself repeating what I've already done. Or sometimes I find myself in a cycle and without thinking pick up the wrong object and try to do something absurd with it. An example of this would be, trying to wash my face with shampoo, put face wash in my hair, brush my teeth with face wash...luckily I caught myself before any of these things happened!!! But when I do catch myself I take a moment to reflect how mindless cycles can get. And I will sometimes try to do something different everyday or change up my cycles to keep me thinking and keep things interesting...well this is as interesting as my life gets (changing up the order I get ready in the morning, ooooooooh)! haha I heard something that you should try to change up your cycles so that your brain will think more and be more active. I think that's supposed to be healthy...well either way, I'm sounding more like a loser everytime I blog! I better stop...
