One of the worst habits that
one can get into is that particular
form or type of habit usually des
ignated as "getting into a rut."
it doesn’t matter what kind of a
rut it is. mental or physical, it is
ad just the same. '1 he mental
rut is perhaps the worst of the
two because of File natural ten
dency to become lax in the phy
sical habits if one allows the mind
to become fixed on one particu
lar line of thought to the genera!
exclusion of others. If we allow
our minds to think only in one
direction.it is a moral certainity
that our bodies are apt to follow
suit and become fixed in one line
of action. And the worst part of
.ting into a rut is that it tends
toward general deterioration with
a consequent loss of energy and
initiative and leaves the victim
of the habit in a state where he
or she is utterly unable to grasp
the new or the unusual. In a
word, one becomes inefficient. If
a business man gets into the rut
it is bad for the man and also bad
for the business. A busi*
ness that is in the rut
and guided by a man who is in
the rut cannot achieve more than
indifferent growth and if it con
tinues successful it can be attri
buted largely to luck and an ab
ence of competition
\\ hen the business man allows
himself to land in the rut he is
ver\ apt to continue there until
the rut finally gets so deep that
lie can see nothing that is not in
side of it As a consequence he
usually fails to realize that he is
there. Should he want to get out
then, lie will find it is a pretty
hard ‘.ask. Every tendency of
li!a nature is by this time against
the new and the untried and in
novations no longer appeal.
.Moreover, lie is usually more or
less afraid to tackle anything to
vs hich he is not accustomed. 1 his
usually results in the breeding of
a species of pessimism which
leads the unfortunate victim of
the rut habit to see little good in
anything that does not coincide
with his own views or methods.
\V hen he reaches this stage it
usually takes dynamite to lift
him from the rut. Possibilities of
advancement do not attract him
and suggestions that lead to
growth and expansion are more
or less of a bore. There is only
one thing that really appeals to
him and that to continue along
that same old rut he has plugged
along in for years. And it is all
nothing more or less than a
habit, this allowing oneself to
cling to the well worn path.
Further, it is a habit that no
one gets into unless he or she al
low their thoughts to run around
in a circle. No one will acquire
the rut habit unless they allow
•i’eir minds to rest continually oft
the same things- The mind that
is constantly reaching out for and
absorbing new ideas will never
get into the rut.
Thus, if a person can for a few
minutes a day lay aside the per
plexities, the worries, and the
routine of life and devote himself
to looking for a new thought, or
to the grasping of a new idea, he
\\ ill he doing much to keep him
self; from getting into the rut. If
he can give an hour or two a day
to this purpose so much the
better. The more dieas he
can assimilate the farther he
will get from the rut habit. It is
admittedly hard for one to east
aside the worries that come with
the managemnt of a business or
profession but it will amply re"
pay anyone to make the effort
because of the energy that one
can bring to bear on the business
after the period of relaxation is
over. A mind refreshed by
change of thought is better able
tc grasp the perplexities and
worries and to devise ways and
means to overcome them. The
best way in the world to get out
of the rut or keep out of it is to
charge the routine of life for
routine is the father of habits and
ruts are his most numerous pro*
geny.
Get away from the things you
are used to either mentally or
physically. Look for new ideas,
new views, new ways and new
amusements. Forget the old, the
commonplace, and look for some’
thing that you have never
thought of or heard of and find
out all you can about it. And,
when you have started, keep
doing it. You will soon find that
life will be pleasanter and your
work easier
