Break out of autopilot mode by deliberately choosing a different path to familiar destinations. You'll notice new shops, architecture, or natural features in your own neighborhood that you've walked or driven past countless times without seeing.

β€œAnd of course you can change your route like others have suggested. I generally go off route about two times per week on the way home. One is a longer ride and the other is a much longer ride. You don't have to change much, though. Sometimes if I'm ready early I'll leave 10 minutes early and take a slight detour that's more scenic. I have a big mansion that is open to the public with a very nice tree lined driveway. It adds about a mile to my commute but makes it feel totally different and fresh.”

β€œIt’s okay to take a break if you need to change things up! Sometimes I take a bus just for the heck of it, sometimes I get a ride with someone else. Sometimes I alter my route for a change of scenery, even if it takes a bit longer. I like to find little β€œnooks” where I can stop to eat a snack, read a chapter of a book, and enjoy my surroundingsβ€”but you need to leave a little earlier to take advantage of these.”
