Polish term or phrase: koleiny myślenia

ruts of thought


Explanation:
propozycja

Example sentence(s):
  • The commitment wanes and we often return to our habitual behaviors that keep us looping in the same ruts of thought and action.
  • And while I’m a big proponent of creating habits (check out my daily schedule), sometimes these routines can lead to ruts.
