Time and boredom fatigue is another reason.

The fact is, we spend way too much time doing boring repetitive tasks that are foisted on us since childhood. It takes a hot minute to be roused from the torpor of boredom. It just does.

Most of us don't get anywhere near enough sleep. We live in a chronic state of fatigue. Which means...auto pilot or subroutine.

And yes, you have your own subroutines. Some are good, some...not so much. Same as everyone else.
