Routinely thinking

It's the routine that holds you in that pattern.

Habitual habits of the minutes tick tock, minute little actions that and those things don't feel quite right, if you are not routinely doing things you like, want, depend upon. 

It's that routine that grinds you to the grindstone. 

That roundabout of money and bills, why is and where is the exit, why does that road say dead end.
