Foolish Consistency

A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
What is a foolish consistency? Emerson never said, but I think a foolish consistency is something we do unfailingly without thinking about it. We are brand-loyal to our toothpaste; we travel a consistent route to work; we take lunch at exactly noon on weekdays.
Foolish consistencies are little habits that make up our unconscious daily routine. We could change them without harming anything and perhaps those alterations would be helpful in giving us new perspective.
How many things in your life are foolish consistencies? Do you think you can change one of them this week?
Do you have any wise consistencies?
